yeah @Emma i agree

Humanity seems to always develop these insane movements bent on controlling people through fear and shame.

It keeps coming back in one form or another.

goodness always prevails etc

i like to think ao

<:workersunite:279040933759025152>

Movements like this are self-destructive.

@Emma This mentality has been around for a while, but I feel that it was pushed into the mainstream by people taking advantage of it to make money

As a rule, dissenting thought is not allowed. However that kind of uniformity is impossible so they inevitably implode.

And after it dissolves completely, something else takes its place. The subject could be completely different but the people behave the same.

True ^

There's always selifsh motives to get into this. There are always people who try to use these kinds of movements to get attention, money, power, and influence.

what would the possibility be that the SJW Mentality dies out, and the thing that replaces it goes back to being an obscure crazy thing that people don't care about

It'll start that way until it becomes mainstream. Which it will.

A crazy movement based on fear of a non-existant problem always comes up.

sjws came out of wanting some kind of moral superiority. wanting to always be right and not being able to handle conflict or criticism. lots of them have good intentions but it's misled and they're not self aware

I'm actually interested to see what the next crazy thing will be.

The Collages were where this shit started

Non-existant problems are incredibly useful for people who seek to gain personally. Because if your problem doesn't exist, it can be whatever you claim it is and you can constantly move the goalposts so it's never fixed and keep the people in a constant state of fear. This is impossible with a real problem because before long you'll fix it. So instead fake problems are used because they are more enduring and can get you more power and control.

@Emma youre so wise omg

in minority circles it was born out of being told that someone has it better than them and they want what they think is there's it's... institutional misinformation i think. they want what they deserve and don't realize that it wasn't just given to anyone

the illusion of disadvantage

Your bullshit detector should immediately go off if it sounds like someone is being vague about what a problem is and are merely claiming it exists and expecting you to take their word on it rather than providing actual proof. That tells you they're making it up to influence pople.

Collages get more money for how many classes they have open, so in order to get more money, they teach utterly stupid false facts to influential teenagers. The SJW mentality was pushed into the mainstream by getting to greedy

not to say there isn't disadvantage at all but it's out of control

@Emma agree

lots of young people don't have a bullshit detector

sad fact

"Non-existant problems" that depends on what you'd call a non existant problem. If you sit down with any random person and talk to them, you may find their experiences throughout life have been drastically different from yours

Who wants to take gender studies in college so you know whose food to poison?

@Nick On it's a case by case basis though i think is what they mean, nothing institutional

@KindledNinja as much bullshit as those feed we can't exterminate them unfortunately

@KindledNinja id rather get my writing degree

a fair number of people have just been dealing with annoying, shitty little things all their life and it eventually builds up to a point where they get so sick of it, it's like "That's it! NO MORE! FUCK EVERYTHING" and the slightest slight is enough to push them over the edge, cause they're already on it at all times

hyper alert

are you guys arguing

yeah honestly

i don't think we are

having a chat

oh ok
