ITT: We are feminists/SJWs

[Kimon²]

the movement is stale

yes, because 'the sjws' are a movement and not a term you use to define anyone who disagrees with you

I can't help but point out the irony in calling people that hate SJWs "circlejerky"

there is no way to call this thread anything but a circlejerk

Well that's the thing, if you "hate SJWs", you're essentially just lumping vocal minorities together into one group to collectively dismiss them all. If there's one thing that I found out that I've been guilty of myself, it's that banging pots at a nonexistent group is accomplishing literally nothing.

If you actually want to convince these people to stop being 'SJWs', don't you think insulting and belittling them is counterproductive? All this is just further perpetuating the issue.

Social Justice Warrior was a term used to describe people who were fanatics who took social justice too seriously and too far. The reason feminism got lumped into the ordeal is because of Poe's Law, and now you have people like you who just pretty much classify everyone who either disagrees with you on certain matters or somebody who says ridiculous stuff over the internet as an SJW

Pretty much everyone sane is really tired at the overuse of the wrong term and frankly I lose faith in any side of an issue I'm for if it accuses the other side of being "SJWs".

because it isn't just a term for people that disagree with you
I disagree with communists and fascists and ultra-conservatives and laissez-faire capitalists but I wouldn't call any of those SJWs

I never said you were necessarily wrong, just that it's ironic because many of the "vocal minorities" are circlejerks themselves. And I would agree that this thread was pretty much designed to get people to agree with him (a circlejerk)

you'd be suprised

But using the term SJW as unsparingly as you have would be kinda like calling everything you just listed communist.

Get educated on who you're debating/arguing/fighting with, and address them as who they are, not some stupid-ass overused blanket term. It's equally confusing and frustrating.

this thread went meta fast

implying you're not a communist

[BassCrossMegaman1]

i love how quickly this thread devolved
after all, nobody really cares about politics, i think people use it to extend their e-peen

Hey bro I'm not that poor

The anti-tribal group that stole the mic at Bernie's rally and proceeded to call the crowd tribal and the so-called feminists that insult men and call anyone that calls them out on it loveist have more in common with each other than they do with actual anti-tribal figures and actual feminists. Hence why they get lumped under the same term.
