My advice to any snowflakes who come to my dinner table is shut up and eat.
I flipped to NPR today. Instead of talking about ways to bring up politics, or how great ObamaCare really is, this year they offered strategies to change the subject to a non political discussion. Hysterical since it has been a Thanksgiving tradition for them to advocate ruining the holiday by forcing political discussions on unwilling family members.
Thanksgiving dinner tradition - everyone around the table names something they are thankful for:
“I am thankful that a real American will be president again.”
“I am thankful that the evil witch lost and will no longer be a part of our lives.”
“I am thankful that the rule of law will be restored and all these illegals will be deported.”
“I am thankful that we will finally be free of Obamacare.”
“I am thankful that coal jobs and manufacturing are coming back.”
. . .
Anyone so delicate that they are triggered needs to get a real job and learn to handle the world. They can go back to college when they grow up and are strong enough to resist the brainwashing.
Our Thanksgiving day is about 50-60 relatives/in-laws. If a snowflake shows up, consider me napalm.
Send your kids to Hillsdale College and you won’t need to worry about them taking your sweet, Christian child and sending back a secular radical Marxist.
I’m hoping for a lively exchange with 20-something nieces and nephews this Thanksgiving. Should be a real hoot.
For all you who are having these “snowflakes” at your home, have a “safe space” for them with plenty of play-dough, pacifiers, safety pins, and participation trophies.
Simple solution.
Tell the kids if they show up and make an ass of themselves, then any help they were getting is cut off.
What happened to the old rule about never discussing politics, religion or health matters at social gatherings?
...you are the closed-minded, pushy, loudmouth jerk at Thanksgiving dinner!
Makes me wonder how many incidents of actual fisticuffs will occur.
From a linked article, in the CR article: “ we live in a resilient nation that will eventually and inevitably find its way forward again.
Godd@mn I’m so sick of their condescending bullshit garbage. I don’t know which is the worse party - Democrats or College Professors.
So they are trained to handle far left wing socialist nutjob relatives melting down all over the family dinner....?

Have a Happy No Safe Spaces Thanksgiving, everyone!
This whole calling every idea racist that is opposed to their safe space learning is their attempts to compel their safe space demands onto you.
Resist it. Tell them you do not take the race card at your establishment.
Some people, incomprehensibly, think that killing babies is a bad thing.
Translation: When you go to Thanksgiving, prepare to find out that one or two of your stupidest relatives are racist, sexist homophobes that voted for Trump.
Here’s how to destroy the ignorant, inbred hillbillies with your superior intellect and wit....at least until they say “Well, you lost, so there” and then here is how to scream and storm off.
