It’s like they feel they’re on a mission from God. Oh wait, they don’t believe in God, do they? OK, in their own minds, they ARE their own god.
We make sport of Social Justice Warriors all the time because, well, they make themselves easy targets. The problem is that they act in the typical Collectivist fashion – tick them off and they don’t just attack back but at the slightest slight, pre-determine that you must be destroyed. We’ve seen it, experienced it, and written about. They are the equivalent (yep, I’m about to break Godwin’s Law) of Societal Nazis – no dissent allowed, no apology accepted, and anything other than complete acceptance of their view is heresy.
The Right Geek has an interesting take between “Leftists” and SJWs and it is WAY more than just degree or intensity:
So what makes an SJW? What’s the difference, for me, between standard leftists and those I believe are clear and present dangers to me and mine? Quite simply, monstrous leftists do the following:
- They deny that truth is objective and universally accessible. They tell me, for example, that I can’t discuss race relations in the U.S. because I’m white — or that I can’t discuss the transgender issue because I’m “cis.”…
- They don’t respect boundaries. They block traffic, destroy property, harass and intimidate opponents…
- They’re censors.
- They magnify offense — and then respond with no sense of proportion. Unintentionally insensitive remarks or actions cannot be socially engineered out of existence…
