The act of pretending an undesirable political outcome puts you in serious physical danger, for the pupose of portraying people with whom you disagree as inherently violent or uncivil.
Perfected by American lefists in the aftermath of the 2016 presedential election, most notably through gimmicks like wearing "safety pins" in public and social media ramblings.
Derives from the act known as "flopping" in basketball, where a player pretends to get hurt in order to have a fouled called against an opponent.
Person A: dude this safety pin thing is catching on.
Person B: Yup. The left really takes flopping to a whole new level.

Legend has It that Devon "Poopy Do" Josephs brethren forced him to jump off a high platform at the pool. Devon "Poopy Do" Joseph was scared but he made the plunge, he landed on his buttocks. His swimming trunks went so far up his anus that they had to go to a medical professional to get it removed. "They" called it "The Wedgie Flop"
"When I was eight, my brothers dared me to jump off the high-dive platform at the pool. I was scared, but I jumped. I wasn't gonna let them call me chicken. I landed on my butt. Sounds better than a belly flop, right? Wrong. My trunks went so far up my butt, I had to go to the hospital and get them removed. They invented a new word for what I did. The wedgie flop. I've been afraid of water ever since."
