FULL TITLE: Democratic Socialists convention is ridiculed as a 'meeting of snowflakes' after one delegate complains his 'sensory overload' has been triggered by 'whispering' - accidentally sparking a debate over gendered nouns

Delegates at the Democratic Socialists of America convention are being ridiculed on social media after videos of them interrupting their 'comrades' to complain of being 'triggered' by chattering crowds and the use of gendered pronouns went viral.

The 2019 DSA National Convention in Atlanta, Georgia, concluded on Sunday but is still inspiring conversation online, particularly among those who are opposed to the Democratic Socialist ideals.

Social media users are particularly tickled by a clip where one anxious delegate complains that the room is getting too loud before another takes the microphone and slams the 'comrade' before him for referring to the group as 'guys'.

Sounds like a Seinfeld episode.

It would have been a hysterical skit with George pretending to be offended and Jerry making fun of it.

Unfortunately it’s all too real.

But it REALLY brings them into the light, and that’s a bad thing for them.

LOL

On the occasions when they do ridicule the left, they do a very good job.

I just wish it was more often and even handed.

He also praised the crowd for using 'spirit fingers' instead of clapping because the 'bursts of noise' can be unsettling.

I gotcher spirit finger right here, pal. Right here.

How can you even make fun of this? It’s impossible to make them look any more ridiculous than they’ve already made themselves look to everybody.

Triggered in my day and even until this day simply means annoyed or agitated. Using those words in place of triggered brings it into perspective and makes them look that much more foolish and idiotic.

This really would make a great SNL skit or a Sinefield episode as a few people have noted.

BUWHAHAHA! Sensory Overload Guy!

I can see it now...

.

Person 1: NO WAY! I am not saying that. I am not going to be “that guy.”

Person 2: What? What guy?

Person 1: THAT guy, Sensory Overload Guy, that’s “what guy.”

.

Person 2: Oh... yeah, right.

I sure hope the hotel got paid up front. I wonder if they had to clear out some walk in freezers so the snowflakes wouldn’t melt.

I define triggered as an excuse
to relive your Terrible Twos.

Posted this on another thread, At least they got the democrat part right as to finances.

Scroll about halfway down. It’s shows their projected expenses and income.
