> you can barely say the results out loud lest you get silenced by the angry mob

Would you chill out? People are disagreeing with you & presenting evidence, not burning you at stake. When did everyone get so damn fragile??

I find that the sort of people who call others snowflakes end up being the biggest snowflakes of all.

I find that the worst counter to being called a snowflake, is calling others a snowflake in return because they simply called you out on trying to silence opinions that aren't your own.

Here we see the GP disappointed that every time he and others bring up salient points, they are silenced by an angry mob. It's a real stretch to call him the snowflake in this situation. Nobody calls people a snowflake for disagreeing, it's the way that traditional snowflakes disagree that people have a problem with.
