RE: Thoughts on "Social Justice Warrior" Branding

I havent really seen much of that being thrown around at all but that's probably because I generally just dont spend much time on internet places. I don't check reddit, dont check 4chan, dont check imgur, there's barely any forums which I check -and when I do it's not frequent at all.

And the thing about being offended and such is a very delicate thing, from my experience the loudest people to throw a gigantic fit that they have been offended by something, usually come off quite the hypocrit by joking about a different issue which is just as serious as the one they suffer from or even worse.

Should potentially offensive jokes be "banned"? Hell no but I think every person should have the common decency to stop when someone tells him that the joke is very uncomfortable/offending. Stop, say sorry - didn't know and move on.

Refusing to be hurtful to another person does not make you "SJW" it makes you a proper human being.

so according to the example above, not being a dick makes you a proper decent person - so I guess in my books someone who is "SJW" is just taking it too far with the intention to cause drama where it is not needed. "Curiosity killed the cat" --- OH MY GOD YOU SICK SON OF A BITCH, MY CAT DIED FIVE MONTHS AGO!!!111

How do you know whether the person is just stretching out the issue for the sake of his own benefit rather than being seriously affected by it? You can't know for sure but in most of the cases it's quite obvious and guess I'll rely on my "reading people" instinct.
