1. … Have I just been typing to air for the past 10 min. or so?


I've never seen the term used in a context that'd suggest a standard definition; it pretty much almost always ends up aimed at whoever and whatever.

2. Same thing can be said for all political nicknames, what your point?


No real point except for what the term is ever actually used for.

3. Pretty easily actually, "SJWs" do it all the time.


And how could it possibly be considered social justice? And how would that justify these people advocating these views as being painted as supporters of social justice?

Ok ok, take a breather, calm down.

Calm? Ok. SJW may be used by the right as a pejorative toward people like Social Activists (You know, people who actually want to fix social issues), however, there are actually people out there who fully embrace the term Social Justice Warriors and believe they fight for things like cultural stagnation and racial/sexual revenge. Just like how there are people out there who believe in white/male supremacy and Western expansionism.


Okay, sure.

But does that justify referring to them as social justice "warriors" when they're decidedly not advocating for social justice?

Well I was talking about the people who made the video, not the video. Daily fail reported.

That being said, did you even watch the video? Because it doesn't sound like you watched the video.

I dunno... "racists," "sexists," or "assholes?" All three of those describe the mentality of "revenge against a specific group of people," much more accurately than the term, "social justice," does.

It certainly exists as something that's quite clearly not justice, that's for sure.

2. Because they want Justice (Strike that, revenge) for who both came before them and those who exist now who had/have to deal with social hardships like sexism, slavery, etc...


And yet that's not justice. That's literally akin to getting revenge against the Jews because they supposedly stabbed Germany in the back during World War One.

No, but it's kinda hard to give them a different name considering it's the name they've given themselves. They believe they are warriors for social justice, it just so happens that their ideas of social justice, are much more closer to social revenge.

Right. So maybe we shouldn't give them the limelight and support their asinine assertions that they're supporting social justice by referring to them as social justice warriors.

Most of them don't believe that minorities or women/trans people/agenders can be racist or sexist though.

They use the idea of institutional racism/sexism (Y'know, Power+Prejudice), and apply it too all racism and sexism (When in reality, racism and sexism only require Prejudice to exist).

Which is why they're called SJWs, because they don't like being called SJWs.

It's like how the National Socialist German Worker's Party absolutely hated being called Nazis.

Watched the video. Liked the message even if I hate the fact that it's, in fact, a Gillette ad. Didn't feel attacked.

Also, if you're going to keep verbally abusing me, just know that my safeword is "petunia".


The ad showed two boys rough housing at a barbecue party, and that it’s somehow damaging to children. It’s a stupid ad that panders to “muh toxic masculinity”.
What would things have been like if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive? Or if during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? The Organs would quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!

It's in line with the other things they shot. I'm not going to reduce women's agency by assuming that something that matches their overall pattern and carries a similar overall message to what they always produce they, in fact, had no creative control over it at all, and only the men can make decisions.

This sort of minimizing of women's agency is both common and sexist.
