baggage check (n)
1. a demand that someone pony up details of their trauma or disclose marginalized-group status in exchange for the “right” to have an opinion
2. the same, but in exchange for the “right” to do or like shit that fails some SJ-flavored moral purity test
please note: although there is always a chance that submitting to a baggage check may get your arguments engaged with on their own merits, in most cases all it’s good for is trading in the default condemnation and verbal abuse for mere condescension and dismissal
baggage check claim ticket: you are hereby magnanimously granted permission to disagree with OP’s poorly supported assertions without being a dirtbag shitlord who should go die in a fire while a dog shits in your mouth, but only because we have determined via concern trolling about your internalized _____ and unhealthy coping mechanisms that you’re a poor wounded dove who’s too damaged to know any better
now shut up, you don’t get to speak for all ______s, only we get to speak for all ______s, and you should be grateful ‘cos we’re doing it on your behalf
