"Social justice" has nothing to do with actual justice. It's just a word regressives use to feel better about the horrible things they do to other people, because in their minds it serves that cause.

That's a blatant generalization of progressive establishments. Even with consideration to what you're talking about as a significant problem, not having an understanding of more organized and effective measures that recognize facets of social justice demonstrates a gross misunderstanding of positions.

I believe in social justice, would you accuse "me" of having done something awful despite having just gotten into a few online debates?

Also, it's shocking how little we've changed since, say, the freaking 1940s. It really is.

Because they are so very like the Borg.

I understand them all too well. They are everything they claim to hate.

Except that SJWs would probably reduce the tall man's wages or give him a shittier job in order to pay for the small man's box - giving him something he didn't earn just because of surface deep traits.

Then I think we'll have to agree to disagree there.

Alright just taking this sentence for what it is... that's probably a fair speculation of a lot of people.

And I suppose that goes for what AdX is saying too. Like I said, I considered for it to be a significant condition.

Yeah, the Borg is a very good analogy. They come into a hobby that people love and then slowly infiltrate ruining it for everyone. ''I see that you are enjoying boobs in your videogames and comics - not any more bigot. I see that you like your white male hero you've watched for thirty years - not any more bigot. we've changed him into a woman or a POC now. I see you like traditional family values - not any more bigot.''

They've reduced every hobby I love into toxic crap and have done so without any awareness at all. ''Women and POC need role models.''
''And I don't?''
''No. You're white, male and privileged.''
''What privilege do I have?''
''Proceeds to quote ten things I don't have.''
''And my higher suicide rate? Seems I might need a role model.''
''Fuck you, WHITE MAN.''

Justice is 3 people not paying for tickets to the game? Those thousands of people inside the stadium all have fine seats and can see the game because they paid. Whether those who do not pay can all see is a bit irrelevant as to the fairness of the situation as what they are doing is inherently unfair to everyone who paid and to the teams playing.
