I do tend to have a bit of a hot button when it comes to social injustice - I cannot abide seeing someone mistreated for being different, or verbally disparaged when they can't (or aren't present to) defend themselves.
Yes, I feel that way strongly too.
As for feeling personally offended, I find that I usually don't care about things that seem to offend a lot of people, like someone not saying hello to me or getting my name wrong. But I dislike being criticized sometimes, and if someone is spiteful that upsets me a lot, though I don't know if I would call it offended, more like outraged and hurt.
