    The term "social justice warrior" has always been interesting. "Warrior" was not our framing, it was the framing of wannabe soldiers.

        It's the result of the same hypermasculinization/militarization the alt-right swims in, despite them being soft as shit.

        By framing your "opponents" as "warriors," your cause becomes a righteous battle.

        I get called an SJW a lot, but "warrior" is the last thing I am. I do computers and want my peers to not die under Trump. That's it.

        At least on Twitter, "SJW" often means one who didn't vote for &/or stayed silent abt Hillary b/c she & Trump were "same"

        Always risky to perpetuate steroetypes,, but I suppose it's true that one either sides with @SusanSarandon or one doesn't.

        And "warrior" application (as far as relevance) seems an offshoot of "Bernie or Bust" mentality, which, @ the end, was 4 sure a battle cry.

        The term existed before Bernie was a factor

        of course it did, which is why I specifically use the term "application"

        I wonder why Status Quo Warrior hasn't caught on yet.

        I've always found it to be a pretty flattering term - who *doesn't* want to be a warrior for justice?

        All they have to do is change the job title for greeters to Walmart Justice Warrior and folks will line up to do it.

        I would consider the anarchists fighting the state in Greece, France etc actual social justice warriors.

        I seem to recall it was very briefly an earnest term used by a small corner of the Internet that became a rightwing meme

        As with most RW pejoratives, aside from being fairly asinine, it tends to speak more to something of substance lacking in them.
