A snowflake melts easy. Thats where it comes from surely. So anything thats too much for them they melt. Soft. As it may have been called before is my take on it. Easily offended maybe. I think most people are like this at some point about some subjects . But i guess the internet world over took me years ago. Be kind is my goal. If we all had that as a goal . It would be a nice place.

i think it all started with this image of liberals being outraged and upset about anything and everything, they "melt down" at nothing. along the same lines as being triggered.
which is somewhat true, because we care.
conservatives have also shown their own snowflakiness however. they just get triggered by different, some might say less important things.
like the possibility of not being able to own a tank for personal use.
I always thought the snowflake thing was about how no two are alike, ie, “we’re special and want to be treated as such.”

Snowflakes: No two are alike. Just like you, just like me. Cool!
Tell is more, Mr. Rogers
Of course, be kind as possible. Also, being offended isn’t the worst thing in the world.
Gotta love that Mr. Rogers! (And Hanks did a fine job portraying him!)
I think if anything I get embarrassed more often than offended. Try as I might to minimize them, I know my flaws and weaknesses and I'm too fucking old to be easily offended.

Thats a really nice thing to say. On that note . One day i hope we can meet up. Would have crossed paths this cancelled tour but not to be yet.

meh, we're all snowflakes from time to time, I would imagine.
Exactly.
I've had people tell me, "Don't get you panties in a knot." Well, the truth is, I've never worn panties. I did wear one of my wife's dresses once though. Now that might have been cause to call me a snowflake. Or just plain ugly!
So with that in mind, I give you Snowflakes:
Wouldn’t you attribute that more to a saying that’s been around for a long time, something that’s isn’t literal? Correct me if I’m wrong, but now we are entering the era of sayings that have been around forever but are just now being called offensive. I agree, it can be offensive, but let’s not pretend it wasn’t common to saying, and there is no malice behind it. There should be a buffer to let people know that something is now offensive. And as we move towards this direction, will we ever address the N word? Division stems from one group that can while another group can’t. I’m just curious where you see the line, where the line should be, and what to do about common vocular that does harm when there is no malice behind it.

Lines? I don't know lines, do lines, or draw within or without lines. I only know what makes sense and go with that.

What makes sense then? No lines on the table, open platform for you to elaborate and explain your position.

Bottom line, it makes sense to not call people names. I'm not big on labels either. Fir example, what is conservative? What is liberal? How can one term describe a continuum?
As for your N word speculation, that's old news. There is no longer any need to address that term. I mean, you may, of course, but why?

You have successfully said nothing. I definitely think the N word needs to be addressed. I has become mainstream word popularized in music that is accessible to all and in movies that make it equally accessible, but yet only certain people can say it. Why is that? Don't tell me about the history, but yet now when certain people use it its uplifting. What about a 10 year today that just listens to pop-culture, are they now supposed to be resounded with the word, but because of their skin color they cant use it? You are better than a lame duck answer Mr Blux.

If you don't know lines, you are blinder than the person you criticize. Lines are all around us, pretending they don't exist does more damage to any ideology you subscribe to and would like to show than pretending they don't exist.

But who decides when it is calling names? Your ideology and philosophy is nice, but it doesn't have any substance. Okay, and more importantly, did you ever subscribe to calling or approving in the last four years Trump supporters Nazis? Nazi carries a very nasty history behind it. What determines a good label or a bad one, and how do we control that? Sorry, accidentally hit enter earlier and it posted a half thought.

Oh, wait! So I did say something. Well then...
Who decides when it is name calling?
It's intuitive. You know. I know.
What ideology and philosophy?
If I have either, there is no name for either so I'm not sure what you mean.
Did I ever, in the last four years [remember to separate prepositional phrases], subscribe to calling or approve of calling Trump supporters Nazi's?
No.
What controls a good label or a bad one, and how do we control that?
I don't think there is such a thing as a "good label" or a "bad label", I'm just not a big fan of using them. I don't see how you can pigeonhole a person with one word. For example, I don't refer to myself as "conservative" or "liberal". I would tend to say something like:
"I am generally more liberal than conservative, but in some ways I am also conservative. And I would not refer to myself as being "moderate" because I see that term as implying one who is not committed, who lacks will and spirit."
See what I mean? How would you label that?
And I have no idea how anyone would control all that. I guess they don't.
