It's more about the tone that's used. You're making ****ty assumptions and shifting the oppression to the other side. The more you focus on stupid little things like this and push against a certain people because of a perception of them being oppressors the worse you make things. You're not trying to promote equality or fairness you're trying to got some kind of vengeance on people who most likely aren't even guilty of what upsets you.
