Again. It does not matter. The word itself is not the point. The point is that some people are offended by it and intentionally ignoring that is a-hole behavior.

Yeah but people were offended that a bar I worked at did a fundraiser for a lgbtq center. I am glad we were assholes and didnt worry about offending those people.

On the other hand one might even say it's offensive to compare a cocktail named caucasian to a nfl team named a racial slur.

It's obvious why things like a slur are offensive. It's not obvious and borderline silly that people found "caucasian" offensive without context.
