The concept of baizuo, which you rightfully quote here, is incredibly important for people to understand, but don't.

Ironically, this concept is nothing new, as it was condemned in the Bible nearly 2000 years ago when Jesus criticized the Pharisees for acting this way-overly offended at small or meaningless transgressions that was more about signaling than justice.

Even more ironically, I've seen the term "Pharisee" offend some people online.

Anyway, enjoy dipping your toes into a hot topic here on Steem...it isn't crazy town here!😆
