    These days it's used mostly as a pejorative by silly geese who are threatened by anyone who isn't white, cismale, straight, and culturally mainstream.

    It's kind of like Feminist or Liberal in that regard. You can tell a lot about a person by whether or not they say it like a slur.

    it is a new term. It is new enough that some people call themselves a sjw proudly because they fight for things that need to be fought for; it has been used as a pejorative by some implying that people are frivolously enraged over issues that they should be ignoring. Whether it's good or bad or not is going to depend heavily on context and what a person is actually trying to confer (ie, you wouldn't be able to tell whether someone was using it as an insult or a compliment in, say, a tweet unless it had other context)

    there are a lot of utterly infuriating people who label themselves at it, many just as bad as the folks over at GG, but the difference is the issue of social justice is a good important thing and video game journalism is basically unimportant

    so when you use it a pejorative it says a lot abou tyou

    This is so bad it's almost as bad as institutionalized racism

    So no, don't take offense to "SJW" hate if you're a feminist/egalitarian. That's like getting angry at everyone else for hating the gammadion cross because the NAZI's propagated your design to push a hate message.

    The term is being used much more widely these days, from what I've seen. Obviously the gamergaters are an extreme but anyone questioning if maybe there should be more female or poc main characters in media can get the label thrown at them.

    basically calling someone a SJW is trying to invalidate any and all opinions they have and says more about the person saying it than the person that is being called it

    Don't worry it is the right way to feel in many ways.

    But take that anger and make it productive. You can't really burn the system down but you can try to reform it bits and pieces.

    Mostly via being proactive.

    I read plenty of hokey and reductive political stuff on tumblr, but I have also read a lot of insightful posts where someone lays out their experiences as, like, a queer anarchist person of color and it is interesting and different from my life and I feel like I have been given some kind of insight.

    Also there is a tumblr called "fuckyeahbrutalism" which is nothing but brutalist architecture

    Therefore tumblr rulez
