No, not at all. I often advocate Effective Altruism as a powerful way to do better, based on a realistic understanding of human nature and human culture. Much superior to SJW activism. See @Effect_Altruism
Evolutionary psych: Most instincts empower us more than they constrain us. Conservativism: Most traditions empower us more than they constrain us. 'Social justice activists': Any undergrad can out-smart 525 million years of vertebrate evolution & 10,000 years of civilization.

Social Justice Activists: Historically and evolutionarily speaking, more powerful groups of humans have been really shitty to less powerful groups of humans. We have things like computers and medicine and industrialized farming now, can we maybe not be so shitty to each other?

Violent crime is nearly the lowest in recorded history. Ditto for deaths from warfare. Ditto for rapes. The spread of democracy and human rights is at an all-time high. What on earth are you talking about? We're less 'shitty to each other' than ever before.

What's the process for discovering that a particular tradition is, in fact, oppressive?

They do have the backing of: 1. America's PR, litigation and management class 2. Academic departments that are funded to take over other departments These can win in the mid run.

We'd be more right to worry about stepping on science than conservatives; most of those conservatives are only called conservative because the prior conservatives they extinguished have been forgotten.
