People who think that because they are offended they are right and who often feel offended on behalf of others whether they want them to or not.

I think its just overly sensitive to me. Not being able to handle criticism of something you enjoy, Trump or Farage threads usually bring out snowflakishness in some people.

On TiBB, I'd say its most common when people make threads in the debate section but then not be able to handle the opposing side to the debate they started.

I wouldnt use it as an insult personally, more of an adjective to describe an overly sensitive reaction

It's just one of the many words that has no place in a serious, adult debate unless you're actually talking about snow.

A generation of people who put feelings before facts. People that use victimhood as a currency.

Here's the Wiki page.
