Why do people hate "SJWs" so much?

I've never seen an alleged "SJW" be anywhere near as annoying, unfunny, or dangerous as the people who oppose them.

I think it's largely an obsession created by right-wing media, particularly on Youtube. It's about finding the silliest example of the 19-year old student activists, making a video about it and then saying that this is representative of the entire political left.

@LvChris IKR. Its largely from YouTube.

None of these eopke have met Sjws Irl. None of them engage with their arguments as the stands.

Its really weird that they can give so much primacy to student politics anyway.

I don't understand the opposition. Is that people saying that there isn't enough injustice in the world and they want more?

@GlassDog Nothing is ever enough for them. That's why there's no point in trying to even please SJWs because there's no pleasing them. You can cure cancer and save the entire planet and they'll still find some way to whine about it.

It is a trendy thing.

It has more to do with being accepted by the majority than the group isolated and targeted. It has a biological function, the value of the group is none without portraying those outside of it as a threat.

Because they whine and cry about literally everything and try so hard to find racism and sexism where it doesn't belong and they constantly attack movies or video games that they don't even watch or play. They don't like anything but just live to whine about it and get anything they don't censored. Also, they literally wanna make everything politicized which is absolutely unnecessary. There are SJWs on both political sides though, but the ones on the left are the ones always annoying people, especially when they behave like children.

I don't hate them. Most just annoy the ever loving shit out of me.

In my own personal experience, i've come across only a few SJW's who think it's a good idea to dictate to me what my preferences should be and why. Disagreeing is out of the question and it just becomes yet another argument behind screen. Those experiences somewhat ruined their reputation for me. Not all people who believe in social justice are as aggressive as the one's i've encountered i'm sure and it would be a welcome change for me to see.

It's just a way for shitty people to misjudge people with a sense of common decency.

I don't consider the concept of men explaining things to women sexist, but men explaining sexism to women? Definitely. Furthermore, the wage gap is not a myth, and if you genuinely believe it is you're even dumber than I thought. I could debunk the rest of your points, point out prejudice plus power and whatnot, but you clearly aren't willing to listen, so why bother? I do like how offended you got over me suggesting you might be sexist though, thanks for the laugh. Getting needlessly defensive over such accusations is usually a sign that they're correct.
