Promoting tolerance, freedom, and equality for all people regardless of race, sex, orietntation, national origin, handicap, etc... except for white, straight, cisgendered males. Fuck those guys, they're overprivileged no matter what.

A Utopian fantasy based on the Leninist concept of "equality of outcome." It says that since you have more, it must be taken away from you to give to those who have less, so that you are both equal. So there is much in common with the petty thief, who steals your wallet at gun point in order to equalize both of your wealth. Though this never seems to apply to rulers, who always seem to be exempt from social justice policies.

In order for social justice to exist, there has to be a ruling class to mete out that social justice. If there is an elite ruling class, then there is no social justice. So the concept of social justice always collapses in upon itself.

Social Justice is generally supported by hipsters of all ages who can't afford weekly groceries or gas for their cars, but who are simultaneously bedazzled with hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars of tattoos and piercings.

It is often used by power hungry despots to fool voters into surrendering their rights and liberties in exchange for promises of free stuff, while lining the pockets of the ruling class with the stolen wealth of the people.
They promised social justice in Venezuela. They can't even supply toilet paper. Meanwhile, Maduro's right hand man Aristóbulo Istúriz has over $9.6 million in a Swiss bank account. At least Chavez's daughters still get to live it up in the Presidential Party Palace, La Casona.

In the Ukraine where the average salary is less than £300 a month, President Viktor Yanukovych said that 2013 would be a year of social justice. In 2014, the Ukrainian people found that his personal estate which was half the size of Monaco, contained a 5 floor mansion, a golf course, a private zoo, a park, a greenhouse, a garage filled with luxury sports cars, a helicopter pad, a pirate ship which served as a personal restaurant, a hovercraft, etc.

In America, they promised free healthcare for everyone. Now it costs more, and I have less coverage. I hear the First Ladies' newest dress cost $12,000. That's social justice for ya.

Common meaning for equality. Typically among the social classes. Leftist in nature.
"That 19 year old college kid had her 2006 BMW stolen before it ever got the new plates."

"Who stole it? Robin Hood? That's social justice."

Teacher's union rep: "We will not stand for any cuts in our benefits or salaries. Even if we make six figures with guaranteed employment regardless of performance. Even if the state is on the verge of bankruptcy. Why? Because this is about social justice"

The even application of just laws upon society, and the creation of laws that do not impede minorities, do not favor extreme or illegal views, and do not prevent society from being at its best.
Glenn Beck's body will be cut up into pieces and distributed equally among all the citizens of American. That is social justice.

Gay, lesbian, and other culturally progressive cops will subject anyone who misuses authority to discriminative police brutality. That is social justice.

Any person who refrained from voting for Obama will receive a mandatory "I Am Hopeless" sticker, free public health insurance, and a free disease to go along with it. That is social justice.

People who do not realize that people make ignorant mistakes. Mostly from what I've seen Tumblr plays a huge part in this. Basically, SJBs are people that see someone has said something wrong or anti-semitic and they get on social media, call them out, (which is fine) but then they take it to another level and pretend to be for social justice, but it boils down to them just disliking the individual so they bully that person to the point of no return without realizing that people do make ignorant and honest mistakes. (Even if the inciter has educated their self and perhaps presented a public apology that is sincere to the core.)
"I'm definitely down for social justice, but these Social Justice Bullies are a real problem."
"She is honestly sorry, but the Social Justice Bullies do not care for her resolution because they get off on calling people out via Tumblr without trying to educate them."

A person who believes they are fighting for the people and races seen as the underdogs of the world. And while they might be, they come off as whiney, triggered, and unable to take a joke from everyone else because they were taught that words hurt.
Dude I had to leave a group recently I genuinely loved.
Why man?
Too many social justice warriors get triggered over the simplest jokes on there.
