Conservatives are the Real Snowflakes

Postby Lutore » Sat Feb 27, 2021 9:17 am

Around 2016 calling left-wingers "snowflakes" became a popular insult amongst conservatives. Since I've gone from conservative to leftie it's always seemed kinda ironic that the people who freak out when you say "happy holidays" to be more inclusive to everyone and say doing so is starting a war on Christmas are the people calling others the snowflakes. Conservatives have a history of freaking out when a guy or girl does something out of social norms such as a guy wearing a dress or a girl wanting to become apart of the workforce instead of being a stay-at-home mom. Or when leftists promote gay pride conservatives get upset and say it's dumb to be proud of your sexuality but then also start a "straight-pride" event as a way of combating gay-pride events which is just insane to me. Conservatives tend to get offended at anything that isn't "Christian" like not hating gays, being against slavery (if conservatives were against it they wouldn't wave a flag around that the only reason for existence is the preservation of slavery), being open to other cultures and religions, and any other social progress that doesn't hurt them in any way. I just find it very funny to me that because progressives and left-wingers are trying to be more accepting and inclusive and get upset when you call a gay person a f*g or call a black person the n-word means we're overly sensitive to a point we're a snowflake because we're "easily offended" or are "unable to deal with opposing opinions". That's not liberals, lefties, or progressives... It's conservatives.

Every man is a paragon of rationality while the ideals and symbols being attacked in the current zeitgeist aren't his own. But the moment something with personal impact gets grazed by the discourse then it is time for shirt off, bandana round the head, waving a baseball bat and grunting.
Are these "human rights" in the room with us right now?

Posts on the General discussion thread need to have a question to be discussed, or they rapidly become spam-magnets.
