How many times do folks have to come with the slippery slope argument. It's the same argument recycled over and over. There's a time and place where it's appropriate but it's like a simpleton, lowest common denominator, not that compelling and misunderstood argument the way it's tossed around here, typically be people who really hate the left.
Can't somebody come up with a unique case that isn't just a re-wording of that argument? Is it so hard to come up with something different?

It's not an argument. It's pure conjecture. e.g. If we allow for gay marriage, next, people will want to marry their pets. This statement is possibly true but... Far from true. It's not an argument. It's an anxiety-based fantasy.

The Creator of HAMILTON is apologizing for his play after withering social media blasts. Has anyone ever walked out at the end of a performance of Hamilton and thought wow that's pretty conservative.
The woke virtue-signaling cancel-crowd will not be appeased.

They always eat their own. And their own are too dumb to see it coming.
John T Edge was as liberal as they come, and it wasn't enough to save his job when the Democratic mob came for him.
The NYC School council video is a perfect illustration of what happens when you allow leftists to assume power:

Look and listen to how unhinged these nutcases are
Sadly, the anger she bores, comes from the inner turmoil of innately knowing she is a product of her surroundings and the people to which she associates...but so craves the freedom and free will to escape her own mental circus. She just needs to hang out at a barbecue, in the country, drink some Bud Light, throw some horseshoes or corn bags, hop in a 4x4, go fishing, and catch fireflies. She is wound up way too tight.
Are you being scornful or ridiculing this person?
He should do both. So should anyone. And yet she has a relatively impactful position in NYC over schoolchildren who apparently she could not care less about as she never once raises any issue related to kids in her lunacy rant.
I’ll let YA reply to your suggestion.

The three permanent Black faculty members at W&L’s law school called for the removal of both Washington’s and Lee’s names from the school’s name, according to a letter sent to Dudley.
“It is worth exploring why the faculty has decided to make a collective statement on Lee and why the faculty has not included a demand to drop Washington in their petition,” according to the letter written by Brandon Hasbrouck, an alum and associate professor of law. “It is no longer acceptable, profitable or convenient to be associated with Lee but it is for Washington.”

because no one warned anyone that once the Left went after Confederates, surely they would stop there and not go after Lincoln Washington and Jefferson...

the left is never sated; that is a truism that you fail to recognize. Show me where the left ever stopped with any demand. I'll wait.

We allowed for gay marriage—didn't get "marry their pets," yet, but we did get 11 dozen genders instead of 2.

As if the far right, mysoginists etc haven’t been trying to jam cases to overturn Roe V Wade for over a year now only to have the stacked Supreme Court telling them no, you’re wrong, get out of here with that trash.

lol. Here comes a group of about 100 Democrats with an occasional Republican saying the slippery slope of the left is indeed a threat. Timing is delicious.

… learn some history! Modern gender studies pre-date the gay marriage SCOTUS decision by decades. Gay marriage did not lead to "11 dozen genders".

When did allowing men who wear dresses and use young girls bathrooms happen? Did that predate the gay marriage decisions too?

men have been using women's bathrooms probably since forever. I used a few when I was in college. So yes, men have been using women's bathrooms since before modern gender studies and long before the SCOTUS decision. I have seen women in men's bathrooms over as long a period of time.
oh the outrage!
