Listen, I get that you have issues with Islam, but I don't think anyone's gonna go looking for an argument with you randomly.
If they do, it's because your reputation must precede you :pachah1:
It's just not fun to read the same played out arguments in like 20 different threads between you and some other user.

Sxb, look if they start discussions about Islam, you might find me in that thread debating them civilly even when the "God-fearing" crowd respond with insults and name calling. but if you are suggesting, wa dad diinta ku qafiifey, therefore, leave them alone, I might consider it. Damiin Baan ahay, far waaweeyn wax iigu soo qor.

I myself can't speak for other people's deen but if they are insulting you and being immature then they definitely aren't putting it into practice.
I think if they start getting juvenile you should just bail. No point in reducing yourself to other people's level sxb.

i think she means twitter xalimos with their sjw-ism and blm tirade :icon lol:
Nah, that's not what I meant. There are all kinds of ppl on Twitter, it isn't a vortex. So-called blms and sjws are everyone's favorite love-to-hates for no discernible reason so that's who they see, and that's what's posted on here to the point its lauded as some type of normative when it really isn't irl.

Yea but I think most people put them as the representatives of Twitter, even if they are a minority,....because they're the most vocal minority on that platform. Like when most things are trending, it's usually due to one of those groups. I think the bigger problem though is how some posters here will conflate anyone who stands for social justice (which there is nothing wrong with) as an "sjw" (which there's plenty wrong with) simply due to the topic being covered.

Nah, so-called sjws are presented through obscure and random Twitter posts. No more 'vocal' than the next tweet. These SJW spotlighters are hair-triggered af ironically. And as you've noticed, everything is conflated with 'sjw'. They've become what they hate :icon lol:

I definitely do see a pattern of complaints and 'being triggered' by those who'd hypocritically lambaste sjws for that very same thing but I disagree that they're equally vocal to others of twitter. The majority of social media platforms are heavily liberal...Twitter, Facebook, and Tumblr are the main 3. Using Tumblr as an obvious example, there are many non-sjw voices on there(myself included) but there is a reason why people identify it as the 'sjw platform'. In terms of facebook and Twitter, the sjws tend to get catered to while other 'dissenting' accounts (who speak against the mainstream narrative) tend to get banned/suspended/silenced.

You'd have an easier time arguing that Tumblr is an SJW space, but not Twitter. Browsing Twitter is highly polarized and more Average Joe and the Two Extremes. It's every view out there given platform. Facebook, I have no idea.

I'm not saying all views aren't represented, of course there is diversity of views. What I'm referring to is that certain views are pedestalized more than others by the mainstream media...and recently (past 5 years), it's been the sjw one. Who one follows definitely makes a difference in perception though; if one follows those who are like minded, they may be less likely to be exposed to opposing groups [but there are also certain unavoidable ideologies].

You're saying they're a vocal minority and pedestalized. That's inconsistent.

No, the 'SJWs' are merely the precursor. In recent years, there's been a radical tide under the guise of anti-political correctness that's turning into a parody of the very same hypersensitive, idealist 'sjws' they were meant to oppose. You say they're out of favor, but they're actually in season, especially in the current climate.

How is it inconsistent? They majority of people are sane and don't act like sjws but these platforms favor the vocal minority rather than the non-sjw majority and thus, they give them more lee way, validity, verification, etc. in comparison.

And yea, some sections of the anti-pc crowd have taken it waaay too far and have also resorted to those tactics they claimed to hate. I dislike those people just as much as the sjws (if not more, for being hypocrites) and they're feeling overconfident due to Brexit/Trump's win(as you stated, "the current climate"). With that said, the mainstream media is NOT on their side so regardless of the recent changes, they don't really have much power or favor. Governments change frequently but the underlying system currently supports sjws.

I'm not sure if we're talking about the same thing at this point

What is an SJW to you?
When you mention your sister as one of your friends :mjlol:
:manny: She is one of my friends.

In my opinion, Sjws began with white feminism and the culture of faux outrage before finding its way into inter-sectional feminism and completely positing it. Lots of annoying white guilt as well that they use in order to make themselves relevant in inter-sectional feminism. If anyone accidentally slips ups or has a different view-- they're automatically labelled sexist, racist, homophobe, transphobe (for example, recently there was that Nigerian feminist Ngozi [the one on Beyonce's album] who made a comment saying that transwomen were different women and the faux outrage brigade came out in full force...they automatically attacked her/her views, called her a transphobe, demanded that she apologize, etc. They care more about having something to be angry at and portraying themselves as victims rather than trying to have an actual dialogue). They also tend to be very narcissistic, "my way or the high way" types, they take a concept which is relatively valid and blow it up to become something ridiculous (man spreading goes from being an observation to "oppression of women"). There's so many things tbh and these are only a few examples.

If you don't agree with every single of their beliefs, you aren't considered progressive enough and thus, everything good you do is dismissed and you're just a bigot to them. The worst of all, I hate how they try to silence free speech...instead of proving their opponents wrong via debate, they prefer to use laws and the government (force) to silence those who disagree with them (by doing this, they are also naively giving a precedent to the government, to take away individual rights in disguise of "protecting feelings").

You actually ended up where my mind would've gone when I think of the term SJW, which is when it comes to trans issues (ex. forcing use of 'favored' terms on campuses, zher zzim etc) and other irrational concepts that are opposite fact. Ngozi commenting that a transwomen isn't a women shouldn't even be a debate, manspreading isn't oppression, and I agree with their general characteristics you described, although I would add that its often convoluted with legimate victims that are marred and accused of the same love of victimhood. But I disagree with its roots being in White Feminism and later positing it.

I would say actual SJWism is individualism gone off the deep end.

Yea, I consider myself a feminist but that whole outrage and forcefulness behind the "respect the pronouns thing" was a wake up call for me; it was when I started to side eye certain aspects of liberal feminism to be exact. There were even some people who got angry over that so called "women's march" because some protesters were carrying signs related to female anatomy and the sjws complained that it wasn't inclusive towards transwomen...like tf? This is one of the reasons why I tie it towards white/Western feminism...because it's so oblivious to circumstances around the world where an individual's future can be completely reliant on what genitalia they were literally born with. As you said, it shouldn't even be a debate...but sadly, the reality shows otherwise.

When it comes to legitimate victims, that's the most frustrating part for me because they've become collateral damage in the crossfire between the authoritarian sjws and the hateful alt-right, even though they are innocent and should be prioritized. *I meant poisoning not positing by the way lol, and I agree with the individualism thing...that's basically 3rd wave feminism in a nutshell. Look into Post-Modern Feminism if you haven't already heard of it...it could function as a guide book for sjws. A post-truth world where everything can be subjective. :vqbuyv0:
