Snowflake has snowballed.
The surprising history of 'snowflake' as a political insult – ThinkProgress
Before last year, snowflake-as-slang lingered on the fringes of the lexicon. It was a largely non-partisan slight — a mean, though not hateful, dig at millennials perceived to have an outsize sense of their own individuality and, by extension, importance. Helicopter parented to the hilt, millennials supposedly graduated from college (into a dismal economy with unprecedented mountains of student debt) too coddled for this cruel world, ill-equipped to face life’s indignities with dignity.
But as 2016 dawned, snowflake made its way to the mainstream and, in the process, evolved into something more vicious. The insult expanded to encompass not just the young but liberals of all ages; it became the epithet of choice for right-wingers to fling at anyone who could be accused of being too easily offended, too in need of “safe spaces,” too fragile.
You can see this linguistic evolution play out on Urban Dictionary: The 2008 definition of snowflake was “a person who think they are OMGUNIQUE!, but is, in fact, just like everyone else.” That was redefined in May of 2016 as “an overly sensitive person, incapable of dealing with any opinions that differ from their own. These people can often be seen congregating in ‘safe zones’ on college campuses.” A more aggressive definition went up the following month: “An entitled millenial SJW-tard who runs to her “safe space” to play with stress toys and coloring books when she gets ‘triggered” by various innocuous “microsaggressions’ [sic].”Comment -
Hey... wait a second...Now hold on now my friend, we ain't all bad. I'll admit it sure looks that way sometimes. And i'll agree with you that the world will be a better place when the scared and angry white male voter block dies off ...with their F-ing Leave it to Beaver fantasiesComment -
Brady didn't cite a disagreement with the guy in the White House. He had "family matters." Tim Thomas disagreed with a black guy in the White House and was crucified and deemed a bad teammate. Players from the Warriors and everyone since who have disagreed with the President are lauded as woke. The hypocrisy by the media is disgusting.Comment -
Ah...Arent you supposed to refute those charges..Laughing doesnt mask your ignorance- You don't know what any of that means do you? Nobody, and I mean nobody is going to think you know what any that means and you just find it laughable- Don't try to fake your way through this- Nobody's buyin it

Lebron a well known Trump hater, most of the Warriors players are also thanks to Steve Kerr's anti Trump influence..
Tell us something we don't already know.. Trump will be just fine not having them come to the White house.. There will be no invite either and I'd bet on that....
Trump be like -

No, dumb fukk. These are articles by most of the prominent news media that covers sports and their reaction to Tim Thomas not going to the White House. Read something before you put your foot in your mouth.Comment -
What a dumbass lolComment -
Gritters hates white people everyone!!! Is he being racist, does it apply? Just curious..
Can you imagine if I said that about old black people in a post? I'd probably be banned off this forum and it would probably be well deserved.. You'll never see me post stuff like that.. Shame on you Gritters.. White people need love too

Grits... Who's gonna pay the welfare then?Comment -
I’m so tired of this queer why doesn’t he just come out??Comment -
Yeah, I can. His name was Tim Thomas and he was the goalie for the Stanley Cup champ Bruins. He was a full on Tea Party dude and refused to attend the ceremony with Obama at the WH.
The usual smattering of "it's disrespectful" - but no burning at the stake or cries of racism.
Nice try though.Comment -
