Forums - Gaming - SJW: Most Abused Term Ever?

I find "sexist/sexist pig", "cuck" and "check your privileges" to be used more than SJW.



Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.

Reebok steps deep into it by telling their customers when and how they are allowed to talk to woman.

(Trump called French First Lady 'beautiful' and apparently they went full puritan).



You can't deny that there are much better and less creepy ways to talk to a chick you've never met before.



Star Jedi Wars.

Super jelly whisky.



Sexist, racist, homopobe, snowflake, SJW, etc.

The tools used by people completely incapable of having a civilized argument.

It's about as abused as the term racist and sexist, I suppose.

Just because something is common place now, doesnt mean its not feminist or SJW. Women in the workplace is commonplace now, but it's still a feminist thing, since it is feminists who brought about that change. We used to have virtually no female characters in games, but now we have a sizable portion. Since that wasn't the norm in the past it will always be an SJW/feminist thing, since not long ago in all of our lifetimes this wasn't a thing and is a change brought about by the SJW/feminist interest groups.

Important female roles and female leads weren't brought about by feminists and it definitely wasn't brought about by SJW's. Capitalism and a consistantly hightened morale system per generation are probably the biggest reasons. Conusmers will keep buying whatever they are willing to buy and companies will keep selling what makes money. Feminists aren't going to change that.

Also, what change have feminists brought about, really? There are many women's rights activists from the early 1900's who did more for women than any feminist or SJW group could ever possibly do today. Women's rights activists died fighting for equality and back then there was a lot of inequality. Feminists have barely changed a thing and as for SJW's....they are the ugly stepchildren of third wave feminists.

Naughty Dog didn't choose Ellie (from TLoU) to be the way she was due to feminism/SJW's so much as to sculpt her into the story in such a way that would elevate the premise and characters.

While I'm not going to go so far as to belittle anything feminists or SJW's or whoever is doing. Many of their so called "victories" are nothing to do with them but purely capitalism.

Takes recent Star Wars movies. Like everyone is getting cast with many minorities and female leads. Are they doing this because SJW's won or to apeas them or whatever you want to say? Hell no. In an interview one of the people in charge said they have a female lead to bring in female audiences. They know that the star wars fans will go and see the movie no matter who is cast becuase they are die hards. They have no fear of loosing them. Heck, the prequal trilogy proved that. If star wars fans still get hyped to the extreme on anything star wars related after the prequals, you know they are hooked for life regardless. So they cast females and minorities not for story/equality reasons but to draw in new fans. Plain and simple. I mean how many star wars toy commercials do you see these days that have a little girl staring in them? Or look at other disney movies. Namely allt he animated ones. Who is the lead in them? Girls. It's girls saving the day in the movies, not the princes anymore.

They are doing this cause they see an untapped market, not because they care about equality. All it takes is a leaked emails or billing rights, ect ot show that any equality talk in Hollywood is just a public face.

The solution then, seems to be the elimination of capitalism. That way true progress can be made.

I still don't know how the term "social justice warrior" became a derogatory term. Isn't justice a good thing?

The idea of a SJW is someone who is completely unable to see the world outside of their causes to the point where they are nothing more than a cartoon of themselves. Everytime you speak with them it always comes back to one of their causes, even in the most insane ways. Everything is a slight against a protected group, no one gets the benefit of the doubt and anyone who disagrees with them is automatically a Nazi/Rape culture promoter/hate nature, etc.

It's actually quite funny if you're the type of person t laugh at peoples shortcomings. 



I consider SJW to be a vile insult, but mostly because I'm a white straight cis male and am the central target of all their whining and complaining. It's becoming old reminding them that treating me different for being who I am is still intolerant.
