Way overused to begin with... how is it a bad thing, secondly?

Jesus, Ghandi, and MLK were all undoubtedly SWJs and some of histories most important figures. The real question is, what kind of person has no interest in social justice and equality?

Oligarchs, tyrants, and fascists are the only types I can think of and (as much as the left often paints the right that way) there are very few human beings that really fall into those categories.

Meaning... pretty much only 15 year olds and mental 15 year olds, who just came off reading Ayn Rand, actually fall into that category - with the exception of a few third-world dictators.

The problem with social justice is that it hurts those groups in power. Social justice for women for example hurt all men, because prior to womens liberization men had a total control over society, it's economy, it's political and social direction, the raising of their children and the behavior of their wives and female employees in their environment. Nobody likes to lose power and by propagating equality you're qually hurting the group which benefits from that inequality. And that group isn't always a small minority, it can in fact be a pluarity like it was in the case of white males. Personally as someone of a minority racial group I'm for most forms of equality, however I can understand the resentment of those that once used to be in power and are now losing it. Equality may have helped me (in the U.S) but I'm not blind to the fact that it hurt others that previously had dominion.

Bullshit. It doesn't hurt all men, in fact we can gain a lit more views and perceptions otherwise put to the back through equality. It only hurts those treating women unfairly in the first place.
