Generation Snowflake

Generation Snowflake is the easily-offended generation of high school and college students in the middle 2010s that are well known for whining and crying about everything that offends them , yet do very little to make changes; They expect others to pick up the torch for them or to feel their angst and change their ways because it hurts their petty feelings.

"Snowflake" is mostly seen as an offensive term. However nobody really gives a fuck because like taking candy from a baby, the expression is mostly used to see them tear up and cry.

It is often used as an insult against college-aged people; It can also be used against older people who feel the need to voice a negative view on everything from Trannies not being allowed in the military, to Transgendered men not allowed to use women's restrooms to Trump's Wall that will protect your chances of Mexican free competition when you apply for a job at Hardee's.

	“	So many good people fought for freedom and equality, but this generation are looking for a reason to be offended. If you are not agreeing with them then they are offended, and that is not what so many great men and women fought for.	„
	—Dwayne Johnson

Origin

	“	You are not special. You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake.	„
	—Fight Club

The term refers to a generation of children who were raised mostly by pre-schools and after school activities while being taught to revel in their uniqueness.

Although Chuck Palahniak takes credit for the coining of the phrase, the expression of "Unique Snowflake" has been used for eons on motivational posters in schools and jobsites.

To give credit where due - it was Pakahniuk who turned "Special Snowflake" into a "negative" term.

They can be easily be recognized by their “childlike grasp of politics” (even though American politics is complete garbage) or anything that actually matters. Their type can usually be found using circular logic, mental gymnastics or referring to anyone they don't like as a NAZI, especially in reference to Trump.
