I should add..... if dajoka004 announced that this report traumatized


him to the point where he needed time off from class, that he should be exempt from exams because of the stress, that he needs a room with coloring books and puppies to help him deal with the trauma, that the very existence of the article creates a threatening, unsafe environment for him, and then proceeded to organize protests (sometimes violent) to shout down the NY Times and bar them from airing their viewpoint because their view is offensive and constitutes a micro aggression..... then yeah, the term snowflake would apply. THAT is how/why the term snowflake originated.

Somehow numerous dolts on this board have changed the meaning of "snowflake" (and sometimes "victim") to be "pointing out stuff".
