The Social Justice Bard is that person who pretends to be ludicrously progressive to a fault, often being offended on behalf of others even when what they're saying is itself offensive, and vehemently sings the praises of the ideology in hopes of earning brownie points, either to assuage their own sense of guilt or (especially in radical feminism's case) to pretentiously appeal to women who are enamored with that dogma.

The Social Justice Druid is trans-anything. Rather than an actual misstep of birth which causes their brains to desire and fail to receive the proper amount of certain hormones, leading to horrific dysphoria, they instead assert that their gender is... just about whatever they feel like. Maybe it's a mundane animal like a fox, or mythological creature like a dragon, or perhaps even a star - it can even be a bagel. They can also switch this gender on the fly, if they so choose. Maybe it's not their gender, maybe it's that they've inherited the soul of such a thing. And they demand you acknowledge that they are such an amalgam, a random thing trapped in the body of a human, and if you don't recognize that immediately, you are contributing to the systemic oppression of them.

Im not sure which are worse, SJW or people that whine endlessly about them

Listen up, anon.
You can root for diversity, be against discrimination towards people of certain races, groups or cultures, and overall be invested in social justice issues without being a social justice warrior.

You can be against discrimination towards minorities without being a complete dipshit and treating people who disagree with you as subhumans. "Social Justice Warrior" is a term that was originally coined by tumblr users to refer to people who were so far into the faggot scale that they became parodies of themselves.

It's why SJWs are an issue for everyone involved: they advocate for real causes that need actual support but blow it out of proportion and it backfires horribly.

Except the most bigoted people *are* SJW. Go ahead. Look what happen when a black, latino, gay or trans person go "I disagree with you people". See how long their supposed veener of niceness and acceptance holds up.

SJW are middle to upper class white people, most of them hipsters, who are basically allowed to be bigots, bullies and general assholes but can get away with it as long as they're allowed to take whatever group society deem opressed and shove them in front of them as somekind of protective barrier. They also defend pedophile and rapists, amongst other things, the former because it's just supposedly an alternate sexuality and the latter because it's 'okay to rape people of a certain group because when they get raped, we redefined it as not beign rape'.

What they've done has basically fucked the so-called left and liberalism beyond repair to the point that people who would have been deemed socially progressive 10 years ago are now reviled as basically beign on par with /pol/lacks because no one is ever progressive enough.

They're also hipster parasites who demand things they don't like to change but that is another topic for another time.

Pictures like these are amazing, and not only because they're funny but because they describe the backbone of all of progressivism. It all relies on ignorance. Multiculturalists love to believe that they're being respectful to other cultures, but in fact the're erasing all cultural identiteis (Western ones first and foremost) and degrade other cultures to just being a few outlandish customs in hopes of reaching a world where everyone can just sing campfire songs and be happy.

Nobody who actually overcomes his own cultural provincialism and bothers to actually learn about cultures will become a multiculturalist. If you believe everyone is entitled to their own culture, you will discover that many cultural values are downright incompatible and preserving all cultures (rather than trying to destroy them through enforced multiculturalism) is the solution. If you're a cultural supremacist or believe in the superiority of a certain moral system, your evangelizing logically means the end of certain cultures. This is why many Middle Eastern countries oppose the UN: many of its 'universal' values are deemed too Western and incompatible with Islamic values. And they are right.

In short: multiculturalism is a delusion that can only be maintained by the most ignorant and culturally provincial of people. And yet these are the very same people that run our countries.

Because Assad failed to contain domestic discontent, failed to contain early uprisings, allowed the Islamist groups to flourish by focusing heavily on factionalized secular groups for easy victories, failed the PR war against people openly advocating for genocide, beheadings, and a 14th century lifestyle, couldn't get his allies, including a country more or less run by Syria, to significantly intervene until after he'd suffered major losses to the point that now, despite being mainlined money and equipment from Iran and Russia and supported by Shiite militias, Iranian special forces, Hezbollah infantry, and Russian air support, he can't manage a sustained assault or large-scale territory capture.

The main issue with SJ Ws isn't even what they stand for; it's the intensity with which they push their talking points. On paper, at its core, it's difficult to find anything wrong with the notion that people should be more respectful of one another, and that society could stand to be a little more tolerant, in general. Hell, I'll bet most of us would all agree with that, were it presented in those terms, and if that's all it amounted to.

But as it gained a larger following, the group became more susceptible to extremists and bigots. More and more, it became less about "let's be more respectful towards one another" and more about "group X is responsible for the problems of group Y, and that means group X is the enemy."

Echo chambers breed extremism, no matter who makes up those echo chambers. And the various groups who make up the social justice umbrella are some of the tightest echo chambers in the world today. Hell, if I knew someone could lose their career and be labelled a bigot by openly disagreeing with me, I'd sure as shit be less likely to change my viewpoint. I'd dig in my heels and savor the fact that my society was on my side.

I can't speak for anyone but myself, but that's why I don't like the social justice movement, the feminist movement, or anything that falls within that umbrella. What I described above is exactly what's happened to them. I'm a firm believer that many of the people who make up those groups do, in their own way, want to change the world for the better, and don't have a racist or sexist bone in their bodies. But the movements themselves are both racist and sexist, because of how extremists and bigots have warped then over the years, and because reasonable, moderately-minded people didn't nip them in the bud years ago.

>>44689923
Yeah I would. Granted I won't even tell offensive jokes to people that could get seriously hurt by it. And I don't hang out with people that get butthurt over trivial shit.

If you accidentally bothered someone and they tell you so apologize and move on. If they keep bringing it up or want you to fucking prostrate then tell them to fuck off but getting offended cause SOMEONE ELSE is offended is the epitome of faggotry.

>>44690035
For me, it's about recognizing the social situation. I don't make jokes about sensitive topics unless I'm in an environment where they're the norm, like with close friends. If I were at a FLGS that had that type of humor as the accepted norm, I'd join in. But the one I go to doesn't, so I don't.

It's about respecting the norms of the group you join. If you don't like it, then leave and make your own. Don't force the group to change to suit your tastes.

I make off-color jokes and say dumb shit sometimes, but man it must be sad to have your ears constantly perked up because women and minorities want to do something or other.

Competency would have been realizing pretty quickly that the secular groups were prone to infighting and that Western powers were ambivalent about involving themselves in another conflict after Libya along with framing the narrative as a secular government opposing foreign religious extremists from the get-go. Assad had several months before the West started supplying anything to rebel groups, a year before the CIA started working with rebel groups, and two years before the USA started supplying arms.

>>44690124
>"Hey dude can you not make blatant jokes about this uncomfortable subject?"
And I won't - around that person. I'm not going to change my life or the way I joke because some sensitive fuck might get rattled.

>>44690176
Agreed, but the important part is:
>Don't force the group to change to suit your tastes.

It works both ways - if I play with a group that's more "normie" (for total lack of a better world), of course I'm going to tailor what I say or do to that group. Almost anyone would.

But if a more sensitive person plays with a group that's not so sensitive, it's wrong for them to try to change it too. They need to grin and bear it.

>>44690096
>>44690111
They're mostly just hipster idiots trying to "reclaim the label" while also pandering to nerd culture idiocy. Because D&D is cool now, I guess.

>>44690253

And what if they do change? Are you gonna stomp your feet and whinge that they are "being forced to change"? Not everyone wants to be a miserable cunt like you

>>44690124
To add to what you said; if someone demands an apology from you, tell them to get fucked. An apology doesn't mean anything if forced, pressured, or coerced. It puts you on the same tier as someone who has a breakdown because the guy who raped their kid committed suicide and that "justice will never be done".

The reason I stopped making rape jokes was when I found out a friend of mine in highschool did an unconscious girl and I asked him what the fuck he was like "hey come on dude you use to be cool with it"... I feel like this goes into a discussion about recognizing when you mean something for realsies or not and when you can tell how a person really thinks but yea.

If I make a rape/racist/whatever joke in a social group where it's the norm, and a new person or outsider raises a fuss about it, that would make that person the aggressor.

If I offend you, you are the one who owes me an apology because one of these three things happened.

2: You did something in the past to warrant me offending you.
3: You deliberately misinterpreted what I said to attack me.

I repeat: If I offended you, then apologize to me immediately.

If something like that happened to me, I'd probably be a lot more cautious about the kinds of jokes I made, too. I like to think I'd eventually be able to separate myself from that one legitimately terrible person, but there would probably be a period of time where I would feel partly responsible for my "friend" raping that girl.

That's an entirely understandable way of going about things.

If you have someone join your group for a game or two, they should be expected to conform to a sensitive/SJW manner. It's own right - that person is a guest at your table.

But if you join a table that's more "risque" or black humor or something, then it's only fair to at least not cause a stir. No one is asking you to join in on jokes and shit you don't like, but it's only fair - as a guest - that you don't try to change things, just as you wouldn't want someone to change your group.

It's about not being a hypocrite.

>>44690614
Because, as much as all of these modern reactionary groups hate to admit it, all of their issues are about labels.

They'll go on and on about how no one should be labeled this or that, and then their entire profile will be filled with their handpicked labels.

Nowadays, nothing exists besides labels. No one wants to know anything about anything unless it can clearly be labeled - and then organized into things they agree with or disagree with.

>>44690513
>>44690268

>"reclaim the label"

Has this ever actually worked? I know African Americans say that they "reclaimed" the word nigger/nigga, but honestly I think that the fact that one of the most common punctuations in that racial subculture's language is a term calling the other person subhuman has an overall negative effect, rather than the positive one that might have been intended.

>>44690614
Because they're idiots who want to be heroic like people who've actually experienced oppression, so they're desperate to claim they're in a similar situation and imitate them.

Strong women are some of the biggest opposition feminism has. Strong women don't need groupthink and mob mentality to be independent and feel capable; they just ARE capable. But all feminists see are big boobs and a low neckline, so obviously she's considered trash.

I actually agree, though maybe not for the same reasons as that anon.

Their influence is being felt in certain systems (particularly White Wolf and Pathfinder, but then again, they were always edging that way from the beginning), but ultimately SJWs cannot actually touch traditional gaming in the same way that they've been insinuating themselves into other mediums.

At the end of the day, gaming systems are just tool kits. The only reason SJW influence in a given system would have any effect on you as a player would be if it had a mechanical effect (and thus far it has always been relegated to cringe-inducing fluff commentary), or if your GM was a SJW themselves and injecting that ideology into the games they're running. SJWs are easily placated when they see concessions being made on the surface level, but they will never be able to actually infect your games unless they're already sitting at your gaming table.

>>44691055
They are, everything they do is projection. They're like creationists, every flaw they object to in others is expressed equally if not more so in their own behavior/arguments/ideology/beliefs.
Having interacted with a good number of them and seen how they treat other people around them, I'd wager that if they hadn't been taught Feminism by their professors they would have been devoutly religious. They express the same behavior but distance themselves from the definition of religion because it's not seen as progressive.

>>44671908
I still think SJW should instead be SJB, Social Justice Berzerker.

>>44690677
It works but it of course has detractors. I'd disagree though that it will always carry a negative connotation, English especially has words that just fluctuate in connotation all over the place over the centuries, as dumb as it sounds, the fact that "sick" can mean "something that is really great" is a pretty clear example of that

>>44695968
Eh, using "sick" like that was always a passing fad. People don't do that much anymore.

Language can change meaning, but aside from large shifts in the entire language (Like from classical England's english to American Settler's English) the regular meaning of the world will reassert itself. Like with sick, for instance.

So where is my rpg where each character is a Social Justice X (X from 3.5 class)

And the way they talk about the BDSM community is hilarious. They talk about how there's heaps of issues in it with consent (not true at all, the entire fucking basis of the community is consent) and dominant/submissive power structures (which is kind of the entire point of the fetish, how can that be a problem) and then say that fucking 50 shades of grey is apparently inaccurate. Why do people feel the need to spout shit about entire groups they have absolutely no knowledge of?

>>44697602

That's just a tautology.

>>44697650
Of course, it just always blows me away the sort of shit people will assert is true with no actual knowledge of if it even is or not.

From my knowledge, the only real issue the BDSM community faces is public image, people assuming they're abusive and rapists, which stuff like 50 shades didn't exactly help. That being said, it's a niche fetish, it's never going to be mainstream.

>>44690033

I agree with this almost entirely, although I also think in addition to the dogmatic extremists there are a good amount of people within the ideology who operate on pretense to get in its good graces and use it for their own ends. The accumulated pretension and hostility are why people have grown to distrust social justice, even if, at its base, equality is not whatsoever a bad ideal to strive for. The term SJW is emblematic of a widespread perception of their community as ultimately not truly striving for equality, but rather their own self-satisfaction.

I can honestly say tumblr probably deserves its perceived political slant less than pol. You will practically always see something like NIGGERNIGGERNIGGERR on pol, but I've browsed tumblr for a year or so without ever seeing political shit.

Constant for you maybe. I'm experiencing the opposite. College is an awful polluted place. I keep my mouth shut even though I disagree just to wade through the shit hole to my degree, but I hear about SJW crap every day. Opposing opinions virtually never come up, even when there's logical inconsistencies in the SJW think. Discourse is shut down in places like that, the colleges 'protect' the SJW bullies from opposing opinions, and you can be kicked out if you argue. That doesn't happen to the constant SJW side of the arguments.

tl;dr - the answer depends on who/where you are. Both are annoying and occupy different spaces.

Difference is, ironically, SJWs have some measure of institutional power on campus and in the workplace, while the opposition has virtually no recourse anywhere.

At least 4chan (for the most part) doesn't pretend that they're assholes for any other reason beyond being assholes. We're honest.

>>44689690
Righto... So in this instance, the person that's offended can suck a fat one because they're the minority in said group.

4chan became popular. Greentext stories constantly being posted on sites like funnyjunk, 9gag, reddit, tumblr, imgur and so on took its' toll. There was a reason they the first and second rule existed and why we blamed everything on ebaums and something awful.

Now boards that used to be my favorite are filled with normalfaggots who actively get offended by the word nigger, that are disgustingly gobbling up mainstream culture and making fun of you if you don't. And on the other hand there's people who are so counter-culture that they hate the site's culture of shock value, racism and general political indifference and opposite it just because.

Incidentally, since I came in 2006, I very much rode in on that season of anime, but I do recall that, besides obligatory Toonami and Adult Swim-based threads, there were threads of content before then which were pretty instrumental in getting me to expand my horizons, like Lain, Texhnolyze, Boogiepop Phantom, Gankutsuou, and Vandread.

The world changed anon. The governments and corporations began to try and tame the internet to stem political opponents and gain profits. A recent example of this is Germany's attitude towards opponents of the immigration policy of Merkel because they introduced laws that literally lets them take children away for wrongthink.

Normalfags got more and more access to the internet and this, combined with the growth of social media meant that the real world and virtual world became one. Their ego and feelings became entwined with the web, so any disagreement or insult became a personal attack, and they began supporting censorship online.

The university students began to see their schools not as places of debate and learning but as 'homes' and 'safe spaces' and looked at an internet that laughed at them as offensive and hurtful. They had to change it lest minorities or the weak be triggered to death by faggots laughing at them. Thus, the logic followed, censorship is required to protect them.

The evil conservatives were thrown out and without a great power to fight against the regressive left began to turn its gaze onto the subcultures and communities that didnt fit their worldview; metal, video games, comics, websites like this, it all had to be changed, and so they began to support censorship as well.

A veritable shitstorm of censorship, half truths, hurt feelings and desire for control hit the world and we're caught in the center.

>>44707649
She isn't wrong. The right-wing outrage is about darkies messing with stuff that isn't theirs, not about women getting molested at events.

You'd be wrong son.

Individuals who choose to share radical or xenophobic views on social media risk not only losing their jobs in Germany, but their children as well, local media reports. Posting an unorthodox opinion on Facebook could be enough to get the ball rolling.
It's not clear how “radical” opinions will be defined. But simply by expressing discontent with Syrian refugees living nearby or making threats toward asylum-seekers parents may accidentally push things too far, Die Welt reported, citing the Deutsche Anwaltauskunft information portal of the German Lawyers' Association

Thats from RT.

The original article is a german article. Translate if you want.

http://www.welt.de/finanzen/verbraucher/article146904927/Nach-Hetze-ist-das-Umgangsrecht-in-Gefahr.html

It should be noted that while Eva says its a matter of 'common' sense, it doesnt even matter if what the parent said is a criminal act. Its entirely up to them.

That article links to this, a german law magazine website. You can read to your heads content, just do some searching.

http://www.anwaltauskunft.de/

But of course you'd know just how fucked up Germany is becoming if you paid attention.

>>44707677

No the right wing outrage is that Merkel's immigration policy caused this to happen and that they convinced the police to keep silent. The police involved have stated that the suspects they've arrested are recent refugee arrivals and they've also stated that the Interior Ministry 'recommended' that they all keep information about refugee crimes quiet so as to not give further ammo to 'neo nazi's.

This goes beyond rapes. If it were just rapes it would be tragic, but nothing to be outraged at. This is an example of a culture of silence fostered by the government to keep political foes down that meant the police tried to cover the rapes up. The police report they released just after the celebrations said the event was peaceful with no incidents, the only reason we know this happened was because of social media.

>It should be noted that while Eva says its a matter of 'common' sense, it doesnt even matter if what the parent said is a criminal act. Its entirely up to them.
It really isn't. Germany has laws governing hate-speech and all those do is activate the normal proceedings of child protection services which by law are still bound to keep whatever dysfunctional family the kid's in as whole as possible. The details of that are described in the Anwaltauskunft article.

If it wasn't a Yu-Gi-Oh card or a model it was a bannable offence.

I do think the rise of Generals hasn't helped
there, because you almost inevitably get rising levels of cabin fever as the same people post the same things day after day, and the worst and most prolific posters can actively shape it to have a culture they like. New users come and think the "old culture" that they're supposed to acclimatise to is the one that, in years past, would have been shunned.

I admit I'm biased though because I really, really loathe several of the most active posers in the Noun: The Verbening threads based on past experiences, and can remember when they were well-known as That Guy tripfags and shunned accordingly.

Generals seemed like an inevitability sadly, and I've said as much back on /a/.

They go against the spontaneous nature that makes anonymous imageboards so appealing. Though, I don't know how they could've been prevented without heavy handedness from the higher ups. Maybe /vg/ shouldn't have been created, since that might have given legitimacy to generals as a concept.

The other issue is the fact that OPs can't easily bump threads any more, so longer form stories and discussions have to immediately snag eyeballs or they die very quickly.

>>44710553
I would imagine Squirrel Potato costs peanuts to make, even by the low standards of comics, because its two webcomic people doing it rather than professionals. They're almost certainly being paid less than their peers, and they have their own internet fandoms and peers doing the bulk of the marketing for them. Even Marvel only makes pennies on the actual comics, it raises Squirrel Girl's profile in the public eye a tiny bit which can in turn be converted into moichandising a bit down the road.

The other issues stem from middle-aged, desperately uncool execs and writers chasing popularity by pandering to what they think the kids are down with these days, or else going along with whatever people at the top want so long as they can push their own fanfiction. Poorly written touchy-feely social issues stuff is to today's comics what pouches, leather jackets and pure edge was to the 90s. The ever-dwindling core comics audiences have shown they'll buy any old shit so long as their favourite character is in it, so they're taken for granted and other markets are pursued (with varying levels of success). In the end even that hardly matters, as the comics make so little compared to the merchandising, film tie ins, and other IP exploitations that they're essentially an afterthought. The suits will ensure that the "most iconic" version of a character is always put forward first in place of any potential replacements to make sure the casual audience members who might buy some superhero t-shirts sometimes but don't know their Barbaras from their Cassandras aren't confused.

>>44709692
They'll likely do as they usually do and not mention the fucktards in favor of whatever narrative they want to portray as being the norm at the time. Think of how often people calling for the end of the Roman Republic are mentioned.

>>44707594

As the guy you're responding to, I generally agree with the premise that so-called normalfags and people who are far too controlled by their egos and feelings have become predominant, but on the other hand, there's hints of exactly the sort of right-wing bias that would also get ridiculed into the dirt in 4chan's past, I'm sorry to tell you. After all, the conservative right is not without its foibles, such as the persecution of various mediums by self-proclaimed moral guardians, often religious in nature, just as insane as the political correctness police, the Tea Party, and the fact that Donald Trump has a chance of winning candidacy at all, giving an incompetent trend-follower like Hillary a chance at office.

Rather, I would assert that both parties have fallen into a downward spiral of extreme partisanship that has destroyed their judgment, causing them to pander to the lower common denominator, the stupidly dogmatic, and corporate interests. With thirty second soundbites dominating the political landscape, our politics has been dumbed down into an inane popularity contest based on the dogmatic partisanship passed down to children by their parents rather than any legitimate ideal.

I'd even argue that 4chan, in the past, was more liberal-minded than conservative, in general, perhaps because of the aforementioned religious intolerance coming from the conservative spectrum back then. That said, that liberalism was of a far, far, far different context and mentality than the radical, blind "progressive" perspective of these days. It was more about touting ideals of personal freedom and expression and an innate, almost Darwinistic sense of equality than anything a so-called SJW would espouse.

"Welcome to the Internet. No one here likes you." Perhaps you recall it, one of the earliest of copypasta, long before the term "copypasta" even existed. That's what I grew up on. We grew thick skins because to take every insult to heart was a waste of time.

Though I never got involved with it myself, the idea that Anonymous could apply themselves as a group to dismantle a reprehensible organization was very tempting to believe in at the time. Unfortunately, the IRL protests were totally vestigial and ultimately served only to invite undue media attention. I do recall discussing Chanology with someone who participated in it who noted that, on the ass end, a lot of the "durrhurrtolerance" over nothing and safe-space bullshit came in and it all basically dissolved at that point. In hindsight, you're probably on to something.

Yes, I recall somewhat the early times of /tg/ and how stifled creativity was back then. I must admit, however, that I did not frequent /tg/ particularly much at the time for just those reasons. The period after that, though, things really kicked into overdrive. A lot of pent-up creativity just spilled forth.

You can still find Mr. Rage on a large variety of IRCs even today. He gets around.

>>44709469

I agree with you, more or less. I often refer to Tumblr disparagingly, but taking things seriously, Tumblr as a platform isn't in and of itself bad. There are plenty of porn blogs and all sorts of backlash against the political correctness and obsessive fandom cancer. That in mind, while it's not as though younger websites like Tumblr and Reddit don't deserve to exist, their mentality is and has always been intrinsically different. 4chan has always been novel for the specific factor of Anonymous.

>>44709630
>on generals

You're absolutely right. The cabin fever effect tends to cause most generals to degenerate into vapid shitposting, especially when there's nothing left to discuss until a new release and the general spawns its own internal memes which get parroted ad infinitum to the point of lunacy.

>>44709695
>I hate them, because by their very nature they demand discussion for it's own sake, even when there is nothing to discuss. They go against the spontaneous nature that makes anonymous imageboards so appealing.

It's a strange distinction, too. In the past, comparable threads would be established based on a defining topic, often tied to a specific series, and from there would spiral into all manner of discussion.
