Best Answer
"Offensive" is pretty much something people identify as against morals, very inappropriate, or disrespectful.
e.g.
"Insulting" is something rude, insensitive and/or offensive, directed at another person or group of people. This emphasizes that the content is a direct attack against specific others.
