Maybe knowing some SJWs in real life can chill you out a bit about SJWs online.

I knew an SJW who declined to give a ride to a homeless man because "I had a bunch of junk in my car but otherwise I'd love to!" who was secretly happy that they didn't have to do it, because... well... what kind of moron would let a homeless man into their car. Kinda dumb.

If they didn't have junk in their car they would have done it for SJW appearance reasons but hated it.

So now you know.
It is absolutely a social construct. They want to appear enlightened in front of their SJW peers.

The hate of the Internet is an amazing thing to behold.
On the contrary. The internet allows the silent majority a voice relatively free from the terroristic actions of SJWs who will stop at nothing to tear down anybody that counters their thoughts.

Most disagree with the idiocy or SJWs. But If they publicly decry it they are called racist, sexist, or any other *ist the SJWs can accuse them of.

What is black lives matter then?

And more recently, this.

Islamist society of Goldsmiths University attacks ex-Muslim speaker for violating their "safe space", receive support from Goldsmiths feminist society.

A few examples is not a trend. If the internet really were representative of reality then every third person you met in person would either tell you that your mom's kind of a shitty lay or that you're a lovely human. Maybe they already do that though and that's why you're so convinced? But it doesn't happen to me or anyone else I know, and probably not to you either. Zin is basically correct, as usual. If you want to be oppressed then you'll see oppressors everywhere; you are the thing you hate.

no, I just thought they were internet phantoms, existing only in the minds of young, butthurt would-be conservatives with self esteem issues.

kinda like "welfare queens" are boogeymen for older conservatives.

Never met one in person, or at least never seen a person acting like one. But I don't exactly meet a lot of new people.

My girlfriend has died hair (although not a bright neon color), glasses, identifies as a feminist and stuff but I don't think she's actually like an SJW at all. I go on about people online with her sometimes and the response is usually "wow, they never taught that awful thing in my gender studies class"

This happens to you on a regular basis in real life then?

They go ignored because nobody really cares. Kinda like you lol. They start talking and suddenly the room is empty.

Yeah, which is why this thread was made, and why it's been infested with mens' rights types, it's because nobody cares. :rolleyes:

SJWs are either on college campuses "studying" mickey mouse majors or working in government funded NGOs. In the free market people are generally concerned about survival or productivity, but if you have a government teat to suck off people who are freed from the chains of reality can channel their energy into all kinds of psychosis.

Well if everyone would shut the fuck up about them rather than whinging constantly that would be great.

I think most SJW's tend to exist in a university environment, which is pretty much the only place their extremist views are not only tolerated but also accepted. Basically they get paid to be intolerant assholes.

Hopefully once the whole SJW brigade comes tumbling down, it will get rid of that stigma. The whole "can't argue with them or else they will call you racist" for disagreeing with a black person was the start of it. People kept their mouths shut to make sure they don't take a risk of public outcry.

It's sad, but until someone powerful stands up to them, it's pointless at the moment. A random example for instance.... someone powerful like a University President that doesn't resign and instead says "All of you are expelled, indefinitely" for example :D
