Social Justice Warrior 

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.

Why man?

Social Justice Warrior 

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”.
Jesus Christ, it’s not 2016 anymore, stop using Social Justice Warrior as an insult.

Social Justice Warrior

Social Justice Warrior 

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?
