Original definition; A person who is actually a bully that hides behind social justice to attack people. In recent years the term has come to mean anyone who;
1. Acknowledges that there is a rape culture
2. Doesn't believe that transgender people are mentally ill
3. Recognizes that white privilege exists
4. Admits that feminism is beneficial to society
In other words, the term has lost all meaning.

If telling someone that they shouldn't use autistic as an insult makes me a social justice warrior, I'll gladly own that label.

White people who like to convince their Instagram followers that they care about social issues by posting infographics and shocking headlines, but when it comes to real life they will happily be racist and be a terrible person in general. Also known as SJW's ,not to be confused with activists
So she posted about mental health then bullied someone in real life ? damn what a social justice warrior.

Someone who is so easily triggered by anything, thinks they are doing the world a favour when really they are just annoying everyone. Usually someone with an IQ lower than 15.
The more dislikes this definition gets the better it is as the Urban Dictionary is full of these people.

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.

An insult, most commonly used between 2016-2018 for anyone espousing socially progressive views. Used almost exclusively by right-wing chuds who bash so-called “SJWs” based entirely on YouTube compilations of something along the lines of “feminists being owned”.

A radical numbskull who believes the key to solving inequality is by serving the same inequality in reverse on a platter of insufferable bullshit, resulting in inequality against the same people they claim oppressed them.
“I believe all straight white men should burn in hell”
Holy shit it’s a Social Justice Warrior, just ignore them.

The term Social Justice Warrior (SJW) is one that reflects the ironic tone of postmodernism. Only under an ideology that supposes that nothing has meaning or value could a term come to mean its exact opposite—in this case, on the basis that care isn't cool. Essentially, SJWs are people who care a lot about humanity, but because modern, Western, white men have been convinced that caring is trite and "irrational" (even if all human behavior is necessarily irrational), they feel threatened by people caring. They lash out at people for caring by pejoratively referring to them as SJWs, all the while claiming that only "objectivity" (a completely impossible concept) matters and that we should all simply look out for ourselves.
That lady with the pink armpit hair is a real Social Justice Warrior; she was commenting on and on about children in Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America, as though anyone's supposed to care. *Sips Diet Coke™ while mashing on iPhone™* I mean, we get it—people die and it's our fault. Can't she just write in a blog or on Tumblr or something, instead of having to rub her irrational, normative righteousness in everyone's faces?
