Snowflake Generation
The term "Snowflake Generation" refers to a group of young people, often millennials and Generation Z, who are perceived as being overly sensitive and entitled. This label suggests that they are easily offended and require special treatment, much like delicate snowflakes that are unique and fragile. Critics argue that this mindset can lead to a lack of resilience and an inability to cope with challenges.
Supporters of the Snowflake Generation argue that they are more aware of social issues and mental health than previous generations. They advocate for inclusivity and emotional well-being, pushing for changes in workplaces and educational environments. This generation is often associated with movements like Black Lives Matter and Me Too, which aim to address systemic inequalities and promote social justice.
