Why all the threads about SJWS?

This post has me TRIGGERED!

I get that SJWs are an actual "thing". The term is not just an epithet hurled by bigots at normal folks who happened to disagree with the said bigots about their bigotry. And that there are folks who go to extremes the other way and become "anti bigot bigots". Folks who use absurd terms like "cultural appropriation" are a good example of that. Or that funny guy who used to be on WP, who started that thread about how indignant he was at the "hypocrisy" of society for allowing LandO'Lakes to have that Indian maiden on their products (as if she were as a bad a racial stereotype as Steppinfetchit).

But I don't see how these folks who might be called SJW are any kind of overwhelming force that needs to be fought at all costs.

Don't see the need to constantly post about them either.

All that may be true. My issue was more the rather uncharitable suggestion that SJWs are the poor victims of online autistic bullies because they "make themsleves an easy target". Yes they do. By being bullies. Mocking and resisting bullies does not make oneself a bully.

This. Mockery and resistance are highly appropriate responses to their bullying and thuggery.

I agree with the but would reword it. The anti free speech, language policing phenomina via bullying must be fought. They are an anathema to core American values and are a legimimate threat. This mentality has taken hold in prestigous universities where the next leaders are. It has also infected some leading cooperations who are caving in or agree with things the SJW's want. If you disagree your employers decision to boycott a state while you have the legal right to publiclly disagree you would be really stupid to do so.

Unfortunatly way too often political correctness and SJW has been used to invalidate all views center to left. This distracts from the real threat posed by these phenomina. This must be fought also, especially at this time when such leading progressive figures such as Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are speaking out against what has been going on.

There is power in words and labels even tho they are meaningless, "SJW" is just another incarnation of it. When extremes become so large and they so diametrically oppose each other then there is no middle to be maintained, either your with us or you're with them. The problem isn't the words but where they come from, derived from Marxism which is being taught these kids at university by people who are collecting our tax money + the money all the kids will never have because of some useless degree in Applied Marxism. You have to look at actions not words or what they claim is their noble cause, what do they actually do? What ideology do you think the people these Marxist professors unleashed on the world follow? Useful idiots aren't that stupid so you have to switch the terms around from time to time and soften things here & there.

Identity politics is a dangerous thing, you can't just dabble in it because it becomes all consuming. SJWs have mobilized their hatred and racism towards 'cis straight white males' stupid as that may be, pissing off the biggest most powerful demographic in the country is not a way to keep the country together in one piece even if it wins you a couple more seats in an increasingly Balkanized country.

Democrats need to purge their party of not only corruption but also these extremists but I don't see that happening as the party really is rotten to the core will no redeeming qualities. Maybe the corrupt will purge the extremists or the extremists will purge the corrupt, neither are good outcomes but at least the corrupt wouldn't force a confrontation between two radicalized sides because if you haven't chosen a side yet you will be forced to in the future.

I believe the correct term is Social Injustice Warriors.

It's just a conspiracy to crush poor, picked-on "alpha males" who normally would be overwhelmed by interest from the womens if not for SJWs tricking them into finding self-proclaimed "alpha men" to be creepy, awkward and unappealing. See, it's all everyone else's fault and it couldn't possibly be that some people just happen to have personalities that repulse any potential romantic interest.

But what do I know? I'm just a fat, underemployed awkward nerd who's pretty much been involved in a romantic relationship of some sort for the entirety of my adult life.

SJWs and the alt-right are both ultra-conformist and conformity is bad news for us aspies because it can be either difficult or impossible for us to conform to their increasingly narrow demands.

That's not the only group they're racist towards. SJWs can be very patronising and paternalistic towards ethnic minorities. This new racism from the largely white middle-class SJWs is very similar to the 'white man's burden' of the late 19th century.

A chunk of white liberals definitely like minority voters more for their numbers than their ideas or voices.

Yeah and take a look at what they say about minorities that don't toe the Democratic progressive line. Democrats are hypocrites about everything or too stupid to know they're being herded around like cattle.

Here's the thing. You SJWs don't care about personalities, and simply just make excuses when you can't find a reason not to continuously bully me.

Plus, you've just proved my point in that all SJWs just use the whole "you just want to get laid, so what you say doesn't matter" BS because you know, you have no valid argument. You know, if you really think I'm lying when I say I don't want to bang ugly ass SJWs, then go ahead and give me a lie detector test and see for yourself that I don't want to bang ugly ass SJWs.

Plus, how the f**k do you expect me to respond to "you're a misogynist who is just pretending to be nice just for sex"? Of course I'm going to strongly disagree. I'm not going to say "Yeah, I'm totally going to rape you right now", and then get arrested for saying it.

One last thing. I've gotten out of the friend zone twice, so PWNED!! ! The trick is to not be friends with an SJW.

I disagreed with you, if that's how you define continuously bullying life is going to bully you constantly because you're always going to face disagreement. Further, you seem quick to jump to the 'everyone thinks I'm a potential rapist' conclusion - no one's suggested any such thing until you chose to.

You're right though, we don't care about personalities and it's all a vast conspiracy to ensure you spend life alone. That's the only reason people don't conform to your exact wishes - and has nothing to do with them having their own ambitions and desires.

I wish you the best of luck in future attempts and may you learn from previous experiences to improve your chances of success going forward.

They sure are hypocrites. Just like the Republicans are hypocrites. They talk about the value of individuality while being conformists. Any faction has conformity or else they wouldn't be a faction.
