It's a great concept but most of the people who call themselves SJW are actually really nasty ALL THE TIME to other people instead of trying to explain LGBT rights or anything. I get sometimes people are assholes and you could spend an hour explaining and they'd refuse to even try to understand, but some SJWs don't even try to explain, they just sit around and call themselves that and claim things are homophobic or racist or transphobic with no explanation as to why.
Most people who actually strive for social justice don't really call themselves that, but a few do.
This is really important. For some people, being more accepting means overcoming the mindset they gained in their youth from their environment. It will not just be one simple switch to being super pc all the time. It is a gradual learning process. Coincidentally, Jacksepticeye just talked about something like this in one of his recent videos
Why do people have to be politically correct all the time? Genuinely wondering about your thoughts on this. I totally get it that people have their rights and that everyone should be aware of this, but if someone's freedom of speech is silenced all for the sake of being politically correct, is it really worth it?
It's mainly a politeness thing. Yes we all have freedom to speak our mind, but sometimes you want to ensure that you choose the best wording possible to prevent any misunderstandings of intent.
