Or the notion that there is a "black opinion" or "Native American opinion" on any given issue, as if the opinions and experiences of any sub-set of society are not going to be on a spectrum. I think Tootoo does a good job of alluding to that.
The idea that there has to be a consensus opinion before something should be considered hurtful is ridiculous. You don't need to hurt every single member of a marginalized group before it creates a problem for society as whole.
