The SJW mind virus is really scary because it's spreading - and it's spreading because it's evolved to a point where it's become immune the standard antibiotic arguments. Its success is due to its adaption to pressures - empathy and reason - that killed what preceded it.

The SJW mindvirus is loaded with a handy "Power = wrong" trick, which among other things, neutralizes the need to actually grapple with any arguments made from someone with power. All the previous iterations of SJW that didn't include this facet, died out.

Our continual sanitation of the SJW's ancestors has given rise to this super resilient form. But we sanitize a lot of damaging ideas - why was this the one to evolve into a supervirus? Did we fail to sanitize all the way? Does it have high mutation rate?

The SJW mentality has a lot in common with religious doctrine. Both have evolved in a way that spread quickly and dug in deep roots. I think I'm gonna write an article about the aspects of both these frameworks that make them self-propagating and difficult to dislodge.

I think everyone has a sense of when someone is trying to trick them regardless of ideology.

I don't mean it like that - very often, all the time, when we disagree with people, we stick in little clauses that make it clear we're still operating from the same side. This is a common habit and helps kill whichever idea is weaker, which is *good*. We want to change minds.
