I agree with Simplicissimus on this one - righteous indignation and
complaining don't accomplish much. If someone is being mistreated (and
by "someone" I'm referring to a concrete example, not an abstract
concept) or offended, take action.
If someone is being treated nicely, make sure the protagonist is
rewarded (even a "thankyou" is a significant reward).
And remember that there is always some imaginary "someone" who will
take offense at anything, since you can easily imagine such a person
for any situation. So don't take action based on some abstract
conceptual "someone", otherwise you'll end up spending the rest of
your life tilting at windmills.
I eagerly await the promised follow-up article.
