    Lightbulb Social Justice/Activism has become underrated these days

    The whole "SJW" thing has given activism a bad rep -- it's a powerful way to incite social and political change.

    The rallies, strikes, boycotts and street marches of the 60's and 70's paved the way for modern, secular society.



    It's our civic duty to try and change the world for the better.

    Just my two sense.

    We need to go back to wearing suits and top hats. The message is much more powerful with a change in attire.

    This isn’t true. Or are we pretending everyone at the protests after Trump took office were leftists?

    LOL good point, I completely forgot about those pathetic protests... from what I recall, SJWs have taken to the streets twice - once for the womens pink hat march right after Trump was elected, the second time when the #resistance orchestrated nationwide protests in response to Trump firing Jeff Sessions.

    There were protests after sessions got fired?

    I only remembered the “women’s” march which was really just another dumb leftist march. Thankfully they don’t represent all women.

    Awareness makes a difference -- the "SJWs" are helping.

    It's all about creating a grassroots movement through effective community organizing. Like Noam Chomsky...

    A hashtag can make a difference.

    Protest are often bought and paid for by politicians. Do you consider that effective community organizing? Paying people to disrupt society in order to create the appearance of strong beliefs.

    A lot of this is right wing conspiracy theory. Have you been reading Breitbart?
