Just so you know, advocating for a livable minimum wage makes you a "Social Justice Warrior"

I read it right here on DU. I won't post the thread because I don't want to be accused of calling someone out, but apparently I'm a tofu eating "SJW" according to someone who somehow has made it to over a thousand posts.

I really have to wonder what has become of the world when you read this rot on a site like Democratic Underground.

I automatically ignore and never take seriously any post, argument or person that uses the term 'social justice warrior'

I hope there's not a limit on the number of people you can ignore, because my list has been growing exponentially lately.

some anti-feminists on other sites (not on DU). Haven't posted there since. No use for RWNJ ignorance and sociopathy.

We Social Justice Warriors only advocate for the people who are lazy and want free stuff. We do this while drinking lattes and eating tofu burgers.

That is not really a call-out, and in fact even callouts are not against the TOS or CS.

Curious to see it...

And told my white privilege was showing. Which is just so fucking stupid to throw around race card on the most liberal group of people in (D). And it is not just on this forums, go back to pre-SC primary and I was seeing tons of community leaders around here talking about Sanders and his pack of angry white men. They have set the Civil rights fight back by all the false claims. The GOP are already writing the attack ads where Sanders who was civil rights activist in 1960s has been accused of being racist towards blacks by the Clinton campaign. Trump is going to be able to spin his bullshit bigotry around in GE by using the crap she pulled in primary.
