Do you hate SJWs?

On YouTube/Twitter/and other social media there seems to be so much hate for Social Justice Warriors. There are countless accounts devoted to pouring vitriolic ridicule on these people.

Okay, some of them are pretty funny. But there is so much energy spent on mocking them and really, there are so few SJWs out there. I'm thinking that its a mini moral panic and a group of people have found that its in there interests to manufacturer a hate group. What I'm saying, is that SJWs are less common than people have you believe. They just know that if they put out a video mocking SJWs, they are going to get a lot of clicks.

But ultimately, is what SJWs want so bad? Equality for women, equality for those who are ethnic minorities and equality of opportunity. What's so bad about that?

Can you tell me what SJWs are? Of course I know what the initials stand for and what the words mean, but is this an organisation, or independent individuals who choose to label themselves in this way? Do they stand for a specifically agreed agenda, or do different individuals advocate different things? Thanks.

@MartinII Its not a specific organisation. Some student activists call themselves social justice warriors, though its mostly used as an insult term. An SJW typically stridently defends the rights of minority groups. They are on the left of the cultural war but have little influence outside campus politics.
