Well yeah I get that, massively overused, like most words/phrases these days I had an argument the other day with a friend about them using 'mansplain' for..well pretty much just whenever a bloke disagreed with her. She didn't seem to get that its a very specific thing..and assumed it was just a way of putting blokes down. Like, some may see it that way, but its a very real (and specific) phenmenom.

I have never really understood what 'snowflake' was meant to be about though tbh. And these days, its just used for anyone (left or right, or centre) who gets pissed off about anything at all.
