For me it’s saying, “we can’t joke about anything anymore”. Sirens go off immediately 🚨
The people who respond to everything with “no one owes you anything” and “pool yourself up by the bootstraps”.
We all know no one owes us anything, going out of your way to respond like this, actually shows malice.
Someone literally dropped the following during a conversation the other day. They were also a PoC of my race so it was an extra big red flag: “You know some people really are wolves because most are sheep.”
Yikes.
Anyone who says

Semi-closeted racist alarms?
I asked chat gpt…
I treat this one with a grain of salt, because its very good at some things and utterly fucking useless at others.
I needed to know what company made the gearbox in a certain car. No matter what I searched in 3 different search engines all I could find was people wanting to sell me stuff for the gearbox or gearboxes. I spent an hour before I asked ChatGPT and it immediately spat out “The gearbox is a 4l80 produced by Aisin transmissions” which I then spent some time verifying. At the core if search engines hadnt been enshitified, ChatGPT would be nothing more than a novelty. But because they have, its a sometimes useful tool that anyone with half a brain verifies.
If you treat it like gospel, yeah… your an idiot.
“There are things I like about both sides.”
I have a friend who says this and every time I’m like “when did anyone on the left do anything close to as bad as ____” (DOJ lying constantly, trump saying officials who oppose him should be executed, etc) and every time he says “well if they’re doing that that’s pretty messed up but the left does bad stuff too.”
“my LED headlights are wonderful”
“nice led headlights, wanna see an unregistered firearm?”
“Tucker Carlson has some good ideas”
the fuck you just say?
I have a friend that loves to start debates about political, religious or philosophical topics, make broad statements, then defend with “I can’t be more specific because I don’t know 100% of the details”
During COVID he refused to get a vaccine because “even if I was vaccinated COVID would still exist, so what benefit is there.”
Anyone who uses ‘woke’ unironically

Guys who refer to women as “females”

Edit: This has been covered elsewhere as well.
Grown men getting extremely worked up about cartoons or woman in videogames.
For me it’s the term “that’s what’s wrong with society” and variations of it. There are a LOT of things wrong with society, and different countries, cities and regions have totally different problems. If you boil all these problems down to one thing, it’s probably because you’re obsessed with that one thing, not because it’s actually caused all these other problems.
I think it’s possible to use such an expression as shorthand for that one specific issue being emblematic of the kind of people/thoughts/values/etc responsible for more of society’s ills at large without literally meaning that one thing is the only thing that is wrong. It really depends on the context and the person using it, I guess.
supporting ‘the troops’ in pretty much any context
Wresting for the troops
“How come Liberals…”
My immediate thought is “Here we go…”
