Why do republicans call leftists and liberals snowflakes expecting them to be offended?

I never did. The right often putst the left and liberals in the same category, and call them both snow flakes. Ask Tomi Lahren before you point fingers.

also snowflakes can never be ugly, fail. Use another word.

@offingg: Actually the leftists have hijacked the name liberal. What is presently known as conservative is far more liberal than those leftists who self describe as being liberal.

@hippyjoe1955: Nope, we didn't. I'm a leftist but not a liberal. ;) Here's a 101: https://www.quora.com/Whats-the-difference-between-the-left-and-liberal

@offingg: I think you are too young to know the history of the evolution of the word liberal. Try again when you do a little more reading. Leftists are notoriously short on history believing as they do that history starts now and therefore there is no need to study it. I simply look back on the liberal party of Canada. The ones who interred the Japanese and turned away the Jews in the 1930s and 40s. The party has evolved into an open door everyone is welcome leftist party. As we used to say. Leftists are liberals in a hurry.
