Politische Korrektheit, Triggerwarnungen, der Wunsch nach »Safe Spaces«. Gestresst, überfordert, hochsensibel – nur einige der Begriffe, die fallen, wenn wir über die Generation »Snowflake« sprechen. Was ist dran? Werden wir tatsächlich immer zerbrechlicher wie Schneeflocken? Wir holen uns Antworten aus der Psychologie.

The Snowflake Philosophy Generation Snowflake has become the new norm. This article examines the nature of the Snowflake at the end of today's cultural climate, and it also looks like the overly sensitive Snowflake characters of today. This article concludes by identifying some key characteristics of a Snowflake. The core metaphor is that such people are delicate like snowflakes, easily hurt by the complex realities of life, and think of themselves as unique without realising they are entitled and privileged— because every snowflake is different, as they say. Whether you are a Generation Snowflake or a Snowflake in real life, you are bound to relate to one or all of these personalities. But, in the 1970s, Snowflake was a disparaging term for a white man or for a black man who was mocked if he was witnessed acting white. It was also utilised as a slang term for cocaine. Before either of those, it was used for a time with a very particular political meaning. But before either of those, it was used for a time with a very particular political meaning. In Missouri in the early 1860s, a snowflake was a person who was opposed to abolishing slavery — the implication of the name being that such people valued white people over black people. What is the origin of the term snowflake? Snowflake first became famous as an insult in the US after releasing the 1999 Brad Pitt Cult Film Fight Club. Chuck Palahniuk, who wrote the original book in 1996, claimed he invented the term, but it actually resonates more than two decades on. (https://www.standard.co.uk/news/londoners-diary/londoner-s-diary-chuck-palahniuk-i-coined-snowflake-and-i-stand-by-it-a3448226.html) One of the prominent lines, “You are not special. You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake,” clearly struck a chord, and the phrase took off. Generation Snowflake The term “Generation Snowflake” was a put-down used to describe the current generation of sensitive millennials, and was popularized by a discussion on Fox News of a 2015 Yale University confrontation over culturally insensitive Halloween costumes. The issue revolved around how universities should intervene and whether students are offended; they should simply “look away”. This view is not without merit, but there are also many negative aspects of the epoch, including an apparent lack of intellectual curiosity and a tendency to be too critical of the past. In March 2015, the National Union of Student Women's Conference in Solihull (UK) tried to ban clapping if it triggered anxiety, instead suggesting the use of “jazz hands” instead of clapping due to clap-induced anxiety. The term is often regarded as derogatory, as it is a label applied by conservatives to liberals. Young people usually identify as “snowflakes” when their sense of individuality characterises them. Critics label this generation as fickle, sensitive and overly politically correct. But is the term genuinely accurate? Regardless of its definition, it is clear that this generation cannot accept criticism without resentment. Political snowflake Read more: Link
This week, we're discussing that most vexed of generations - the millennials. The oldest millennials are now - whether they like it or not - turning 40 years old. They're often mocked by older people as Generation Snowflake, but do millennials, in fact, still have quite a lot to complain about as they move into middle age?

Gleich zum Beginn der Woche wirft diese Konstellation eine spannende Frage auf. Die Sonne, die für den Lebenskern steht, trifft auf Neptun, den „Stoßdämpfer der Seele“. Und dies erkundet die Täuschung: Bin ich visionär oder ist das ein Trugbild? Genie oder Wahnsinn? Das ist oft auch eine Frage der Empfindung und nicht rein faktisch zu beantworten. Dann treffen sich Mond und Venus im Krebs. Eine zarte Begegnung und die Frage: wo bin ich am tiefsten Punkt meiner Seele identifiziert? Diese Konstellation stimuliert dann eine wichtiges Ereignis am 15. Juni, wenn es zum zweiten Mal in diesem Jahr einen Spannungsaspekt zwischen Saturn und Uranus gibt. Dieser steht sinnbildlich für den Epochenumbruch und seine Wirkung wird die nächsten zwei Jahre andauern! Auch der Tumult, den dieser Spannungsaspekt mit sich bringt fordert uns nur auf, die Chance zu ergreifen, das Erdreich hinter uns zu lassen. Außerdem erfahrt ihr im Astropod welche moralischen Fragen wir uns stellen sollten, was das mit der „Generation Snowflake“ auf sich hat und was sich hinter Enkelfähigkeit verbirgt.Wir freuen uns wie immer auf Rückmeldung von Euch. Schreibt uns dazu gerne astropod@astropod-schlieffen.de, auf Instagram oder Facebook. Viel Spaß mit dem Astropod. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In this second part, Graham and I discuss how he dealt with challenges in a robust Naval environment, what makes good leadership and why he thinks 'Generation Snowflake' have it harder than he did.
"I did feel a duty to look after my mother" In this episode I chat with my grandfather, Graham, about some of his experiences from the earlier part of his life, including his early bomb disposal work during as a child in the second world war, and how he came to join the Navy as a ship's boy and work his way up from the bottom. In this first part we also discuss our respective childhoods and how they shaped who we are today. Continued in part 2.

I en global utblick över det senaste årtiondet framstår det som att _ålder_ (återigen) blivit den viktigaste politiska skiljelinjen. Storbritanniens unga chockade landets äldre genom att strömma in i Labourpartiet och lyfta fram Jeremy Corbin till partiledarposten, och en majoritet av de unga amerikanerna föredrar idag 'socialism' över 'kapitalism' när opinionsinstituten ber dem välja. I det här avsnittet pratar vi om GENERATIONER. Bland annat genom en läsning av Keir Milburns nya bok 'Generation Left' som försöker analysera begreppet generationer politiskt. Det snackas boomers, Generation X, Millennials och framförallt om en generation som inte minns tiden före datorer, mobiltelefoner och internet: Generation Z. Vad vill 2010-talet kids, och vilka likheter samt skillnader finns mellan USA och Sverige?

Welcome back to Paper View. This is the first episode of 2019. In this episode, I cover stories which have the theme of respect. Emmanuel Macron and Angela Merkel have said they both seek a European megastate merging France and Germany policy. I talk about the wider picture of this proposal and why Macron and Merkel are far from the origin of the idea. Ken Loach's hit 2016 film "I, Daniel Blake" I, Daniel Blake is poignant, searingly real and holds a mirror up to modern society's failings to help those most in need. I recently saw the film and talk about why the welfare system in Britain and poverty is so prevalent today. Toxic masculinity has been in the news a lot recently. I talk about the real agenda behind the focus on toxic masculinity and go deeper than the mainstream media would ever go. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has been alleged to have given an interview with the Daily Star talking about Generation Snowflake and political correctness. Johnson denies the interview ever took place but I talk about why the contents of the interview were absolutely right anyway. Here's the poster I mention in the episode: https://www.dropbox.com/s/veseeavltpi2gc4/workbuyconsumedie.jpg?dl=0
Political scientist William Davies talks to Sam Leith about his new book Nervous States: How Feeling Took Over The World. Here’s a deep dive into the parlous condition of our public discourse, drawing the line from Descartes and Hobbes to Trump and Generation Snowflake. Can speech be a form of violence? Will argues that our instincts on that may be wrong…

In this episode, I focus once again on Generation Snowflake and political correctness. The goal is to remove freedom of speech en route to no freedom. Without freedom of speech there can be no other freedom. I also talk about the plan to privatise in order to control, regulate and dictate from a central point. This is happening with the NHS. Driverless cars are promoted as an easier way to get around but there's a sinister agenda behind them. I talk about the agenda behind driverless cars and how those challenging and exposing authority won't be going anywhere in a hurry. It's about control. Amazon is also featured in this episode. Toys R Us is the latest business to fall at the hands of the monopoly seeking monster Amazon. I explain the bigger picture behind this story. I also talk about Scotland in regards to Brexit. Thanks to Brendan Russell for editing and music.
Generasjon snøfnugg går nå på universitetet og de blir krenket av det meste. Med Ole Jacob Madsen.
Listen to the debate at the Battle of Ideas 2017 at the Barbican in London. Whereas earlier generations of young people provoked outrage among their elders, millennials – those born in the late 1990s and early 2000s – seem to attract merely condescension and concern. Today’s youth have been labelled ‘Generation Snowflake’ for their declarations of emotional vulnerability and demands for protection and support. Instead of revolting, today’s students seem to be preoccupied with difficulties in negotiating personal relationships, demanding formal instruction and regulation of issues of consent and protection of apparently fragile identities against hostile criticism. Yet, for those coming of age in an era of austerity and debt, Brexit and Trump, anxiety and apprehension may be appropriate responses. And, in their embrace of issues of social justice, and support for the kinder, gentler form of politics espoused by Jeremy Corbyn and Bernie Sanders, perhaps the millennials are pointing the way towards real change in society. Are the adults of tomorrow over-anxious snowflakes masquerading as a youthquake? Or is their pursuit of a different sort of politics – putting emotion and morality before ideology and policy – exactly the kind of shake up Western politics has been waiting for?

Michael Graham mocks Ireland's rent cap plan, has another go at Generation Snowflake over peanut allergies & laughs at Hillary Clinton for being a bad loser.
In Episode 41 of the “High Regard Show,” “Generation Snowflake” (not to be confused with "Operation Snowflake"), we acknowledge last week's tragic events before ripping into the weakest group of Americans ever spawn! How did we go from a country that put children to work in coal mines to a raising a society whose majority has their heads in the sand? Kids are actually trying to dictate what colleges teach based on things that won't get them upset, thanks in part to a domino effect caused by parents who wanted their kids' lives to be better than what they went through. Congrats (insert slow clap here) you did it ... You made life so easy on your children that they don't even want to hear about the struggles that got us to this place we are now. How are we supposed to stop this current slide into insanity if today's children are being bred to do as they please because they are the most important thing in the world? Maybe by showing 100 puppies playing in a field with a picnic basket, but we are a podcast, and our pictures don't translate well through sound, so this is the best we could do this week.
