To be frank, stating your opinions as facts is both fun and useful for sparking some discussion, while just being nice and fluffy all the time contributes to the stagnation of a community.

This is why I go into 4chan's /a/ a lot, everyone there is free to word their opinions as they like, even if they're the most offensive pieces of text ever written. And most people there know that whatever wording anyone else had about a show, at the end of the day everything is a subjective opinion that doesn't need to be taken seriously.

What the OP is implying is basically asking for people to adapt to the fact that many won't receive their opinions well if they state them so assertively. I think the problem lies not in the one who says the "offensive" comment, but on the many who fail to take it as a mere opinion and thus get offended by it.
