This term is used to describe someone who is like a SJW (social justice warrior), but doing it for all the wrong reasons. Mainly refers to terminally-online
Twitter freaks that blindly defend someone who more than likely deserved to be called out and critized for their behavior for attention/brownie points. These same people who, when they proven wrong on every facet, they
go into damage control mode, falsely label it as something that it's not, lock their
Twitter replies, set their
Twitter account to protected mode, or all of the above.
Short for "social justice retard", this term was coined by Ember Paradox in a YouTube video titled "They're not doing '
girl gamers' ANY favors here", talking about problematic behavior in the e-sports/gaming space.
Ember Paradox:
No, it's not SJW - I upgraded the acronym SJW, 'cause they are not social justice warriors, they are SJRs (social justice retards).
We have upgraded the acronym
now. SJW is in the past, SJR is in the now.
