Were people who found this announcement outside a pizzeria to be offensive ~ and protested about it ~ engaging in manufactured outrage?

You need to define stupid to decide this.

My definition of stupid is "is capable of rational thinking but chooses not to". It doesn't include folk who are not capable of rational thinking, for whatever reason.

So no, not offensive, just something for the woke brigade to get their media pennies from.

Possibly a group of rejected applicants 😆

One brand of stupid would be finding "Now Hiring: Non-Stupid People" offensive.

Disapproval of Bud Light' partnership with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney in a marketing campaign is one thing, but the affectation that one is personally "offended" by it seems plain daft.

I could say that if you are stupid enough to want to work in a pizzeria then you are too stupid to get a job in that particular one.

But I won’t say that.
