Do you remember the whole red Starbucks cup controversy last year? That's basically where it all started.

Because all conservatives are the same.

No, wouldn't quite say that. There are some moderate conservatives that have some liberal views but there are some very conservative conservatives that want everything according to the Bible. Same goes for liberals. Not all liberals are the same either. There are some moderate liberals with conservative views, but there are also some very liberal liberals that are triggered by just about everything.

pretty much ^^ - It's just the "moderate conservatives with some liberal views" are not exactly represented by the GOP. Trump had a much larger majority in the candidacy race than in the actual votes. So I guess _at least_ an equal number of MCWSLV voted HRC as teaparty/alt-right/extreme right wingers voted DJT, people who didn't vote the last decades at all. And these suckers throw a hysteric tantrum any time anybody says "feminism", "racism is not completely gone", "words have power, so kinda mind them" and they escape to their safe places where like-minded agree with and support them. These people do not represent the entire republicans. But the litmus test called Trump clearly showed they're at least a huge chunk of the GOP.

There are idiots on both sides definitely but it always boggles my mind when uninformed republicans say that all liberals (or "libtards" as they like to call anyone with a different opinion than them) are SJWs, offended pussies etc. and then scream like a baby who just shat its diaper when you say something that doesn't fit their mindset.
This may seem biased but I've more often encountered a republican who quickly resorted to ad hominem attacks than a liberal. But that is probably because I debate more republicans than liberals as there's no use debating someone you mostly agree with. But yeah there are some extremist SJWs on the left that I debated in the past that were equally bad.

I think the problem is that liberalism is the majority. There are laws which the left inpliment which backfire. Look at sweden right now. Feminists said it was sexist that they didnt clear sidewalks with snow and only cleared the main roads. They went the feminist route and their main roads were covered in snow which prevents ambulances, peole getting to work, people getting on buses. It was a mix up and a bad idea from the start but the policy was passed and those who disagreed with it were branded sexist.

That was the biggest snowfall we've had for 111 years in Sweden. Any notion you or the conservatives have about cause and effect goes out the window when you realise that nothing was clear because there was simply too much snow.

How is it sexist to not clear the pavements?

^ikr, how can cleaning snow be sexist? I really don't get it.
Also, @isuck479, liberalism ≠ feminism. Politically I'm a liberal but I am also anti-feminist because 3rd wave feminism has become just a silly movement of silly people, to put it lightly. Why do people associate being left leaning with being an SJW and right leaning with being anti-SJW? I'm left leaning but hate safe spaces and trigger warnings and all this childish shit.
Just because a few children on twitter say they're liberal and SJW doesn't mean all liberals are. These children most likely have no idea about politics whatsoever and just say they're liberal cause it sounds cool or to rebel against their conservative parents.

What happened with the snow clearing was basically a politician decided that since most pedestrians and cyclists are women and children, the pavements and cycle paths should be cleared to allow for equal access to the city when it's snowing. Nobody is really talking about this in Sweden except for conservative bloggers who decided that this policy came from feminists when it's really just some idiot politicians.

Oh ok so it's just triggered extremist conservatives again. Why am I not surprised?
Also clearing the pavement as well as the roads seems reasonable enough considering how much snow Scandinavian countries usually get, but if what has been said above is true and it made the snow clearers neglect the roads, then it's of course a baloney proposition by dumbass politicians.

It's not so much that the roads were neglected, just that there was so much snow that nothing could be kept clear enough for smooth travel. It seems like the conservative media decided to blame the policy instead of the fact that it was the first big snow of the season and the plows couldn't keep up. I do think it's a bit of a silly policy but a surprising number of Swedes walk and bike even in 30cm of snow because we just don't give a fuck.
