I Believe In Social Justice

It's funny when people call me an sjw. "You sjws" and "sjws always" "now you're an sjw?"
No one calls themselves that anymore, for one thing. If you're anti- social-justice and you call people you're arguing with sjw's, you're showing how out of touch you are, at best.
Sjw is used to mean someone who gets overly emotional and pushy about inane things under the banner of social justice. First, again, no one calls themselves that anymore. Second, you look stupid ranting about liberals being 'offended,'because not only is that a distraction tactic, it dismisses the very valid emotions and very real concerns of anyone who speaks up about these issues (and because you wouldn't be ranting if you weren't 'offended' yourself, so I don't understand why people try to use that. But nice job minimizing the experiences of millions of people because you can't handle being called out.)
So no, I'm not an 'sjw,' whatever that means in your head. I'm just a decent person, or at least I'm trying to be. If you can't tell the difference, then maybe you're just an ass.

It's never been about what they call themselves, it's what opponents call them. Besides the majority of them have only a rudimentary grasp of the issue they purportedly care so much about. It usually boils down to a collection of feelings stuck together with a weak glue of irrationality. Few convincing arguments but frequent insults and grouping like a pack of hyenas to 'call out' (hate that term) anyone who disagrees or doesn't fit their narrow, unrealistic and naive view of the world. SJW deserve every bit of criticism they get because their appalling ignorance and treatment of anyone who isn't as 'radical' as them is the greatest case against democracy.

I'm pretty sure you missed about every applicable point.

@NinaSilver: Maybe from your angle, which wasn't in the right direction to begin with.

@adshaw: You missed not only my point, but every other applicable point in that my 'angle' is a very lucid and rational one. Tellingly, your response is built on misunderstanding, caricature, and conjecture.

@NinaSilver: Rational... that's not a word I'd ever associate with social justice.
