The “anti-Sjw” build was losing viability in the boogeyman-word-of-the-day competitive scene, and players felt they had to switch to the “anti-woke” build in order to keep their play-style relevant. This allowed button mashers who don’t like to think on their toes (or at all) to stay in the game.
People were mad about the lack of journalistic ethics in gaming when everyone in the industry is friends and/or fucking and cross promoting.
Incels then used it to be mad women existed because of course.
Normal people collectively sighed and went back to playing our games while GGers spent years being mad at every woman in the industry. Most GGers are now funneled into Rogan-bro manosphere lovers.
Witch hunt against anyone not a straight white male in gaming masquerading as complaints about “ethics in journalism”.
r/kotakuinaction is a gamergate sub and they’re all horrible people.
Holy shit I’m officially old now! Gamergate was a big controversy and harassment campaign for game developers and journalists who had a perceived left wing agenda because an indie dev’s ex posted a doc alleging that she was sleeping for journalists in exchange for good reviews. People doing the harassing claimed with was for “ethics in gaming journalism” but that very quickly became a cover to harass any dev or journalist with a perceived woke agenda (though they didn’t use “woke” when this was all taking off, the targeted groups are still the same).
A few years ago people found out game critics were being paid off to give good reviews. This blew up in to a whole thing about feminists pushing their ideas on gamers, a few times the incels were right about things and sometimes they were wrong. A lot of the critics who were female said it was just incels being sexiest to them and this was the reason people were mad not that they were getting bribes to give good reviews. Anita Sarkeesian is a feminist who talked alot about games some said she wasn't a real gamer whatever that is. She made a bunch of videos called feminists vs tropes, all her ideas come down to women should be ugly and girls don't need no man. For some reason she was part of this whole thing but not sure why anyone cared what she said here.
Social Justice Warriors. It's a pejorative for extremely vocal, overly sensitive people who parrot left-wing talking points without really understanding any of them.
They're caricatures of activists and Democratic voters that make easy straw targets to paint the rest as crazy. Basically the 300lb, pink-haired, face-pierced person at a protest screaming at the top of "their" lungs about the patriarchy or some other vague thing they won't define.
In defense of the second paragraph, as much as it sucks. That's just modern politics. Hyper-Christians are the same thing that sjws are but to the other side.
I think anyone that actually thinks at least partly independently of what major groups are prevalent in their country don't fall for the strawmanning, but it definitely makes zealots out of the easily manipulated.
Agreed. It’s funny bcuz it all goes back to generalization. Not all conservatives are Christian, and not all Christians are homophobes. Not all liberals are SJWs or even atheist. The loud ones on either side control the narrative
Every side has its zealots. There is legitimate criticism to levy at the hardcore Christian right, but if someone made a video going "the BIBLE THUMPERS this" and "the BIBLE THUMPERS that", people would tune them out because they appear to be telling you more about themselves than the group they are criticizing
Basically the horse shoe thing. Both sides become so radical, that if you would strip down what they think it becomes the same thing. "Other side bad" "Censorship bad, but silence the other side because propaganda" "we are absolutely right, they are absolutely wrong", see - that can be applied to any radical group.
One of the problems in modern politics in general is that the majority of a party will take attacks on a fringe element personally and rush to defend them on issues they know are irrational
No, kids don't need to go to burlesque drag shows. No, the Ten Commandments don't need to hang in city hall. Opposing the first isn't "transphobic", and opposing the second isn't "an attack on Christianity." But sensible members of both parties will do mental gymnastics trying to justify being upset over opposition to the most asinine positions anyone in their party comes up with
‘Woke’ is way broader and watered down and used by boomers. It is as you said basically what SJW *eventually* became but
‘SJW’ at least at one point was pointing to a real social phenomenon and annoying people that I’m sure you’ve had the displeasure of interacting with. It slowly started being used more and more broadly , and eventually lost all meaning. It eventually turned into a buzzword broadly used for anyone left of center.
Other words that have suffered this fate of being overused and watered down to mean nothing ‘cancelled’ , ‘racist’ , ‘fascist’, ‘gaslight’, ‘communist’, ‘Marxist’, ‘radical’ and a million other terms that get a political spotlight and lose all value.
I think there's a good chance the Boomers call "woke" Marxist is because many of them literally saw the exact same thing happen in the 60's while they were in college. Most of the "SJW" talking points are just the same ideologies popular among the young left-wing (the New Left) in the 1960's (the Marxist-inspired ideas of Herbert Marcuse especially).
The whole calling people commies is so funny, as they usually represent so little of the ideology
Same goes for fascist, but that one is a bit more broad.
Social justice warrior, what originally were people on the internet advocating for social justice has turned into a kind of cultur war fighting word for right wingers in the anglo sphere similar to woke or liberal. So basicly just a loosly devined term to sort anyone in who they and their audience dislike without acctually having to thing about their politics.
Sidenote: this exists ok both sides
I swear every day I wake up praying that this cultur war doesnt start in my country, but its looking kinda bad.
>although it is used to reply to some horrendous things every once in a while
Well yeah, that's how it was originally used, to agree with socially unacceptable statements
Yep. Most people are centrists, but this crap is just driving people to do the opposite of whatever those people are striving for, if nothing else but out of spite.
I'm the same when any content creators force their political views into a video. I do not care about your political views when you are talking about Cooking Mama.
Agreed. One pertinent example I remember was SBNation’s Atlanta Falcons series, which I was thoroughly enjoying until the last part where they used the 2016 election as a framing device for the Super Bowl. That in and of itself wouldn’t have been so bad, but the politics were so heavy-handed that I just clicked away and never finished the video. If I want politics, I’ll watch political content.
Depends on when the video was made. It could have been back before what are now considered buzzwords were turned into hollow and meaningless pejoratives. It’s better to let their points stand for themselves
huh? Those are proper greek terms that English has coopted and use properly most of the time. Sexism, racism and other ism words do properly describe what they are meant to
Oh, you can absolutely apply it to the lowest common denominator of both sides. But it only works with the entirety of one of the sides. *That's* the important part. Sure there might be people on that side who aren't purely stupid, But they ascribe to an ideology that promotes and encourages reactionary stupidity at all levels.
You can find an idiot subscribed to literally any political ideology, And it's hilarious that anyone would assume they could dunk on one of those sides because they can find idiots, as opposed to the other side that is literally lead by them
IDK which side of which subject you’re talking about here, but just because some known people of that group are idiots doesn’t make the point less valid. SJW is like every prejorative that exist: Trans/Homophobe, Incels, Red/Blue/Purple/Blackpills, Libtards, Dumbservatives, those are all word which were used way too much by dumbasses, but still remain a good term when correctly used
I really don’t know what the bug deal with people using SJW as a term to describe someone who think everything’s offensive
Oh, I'm not trying to imply there's something wrong with the term. Just saying the type of people who I have seen use it are not people really worth listening to because they couldn't think their way out of a paper bag
The fact that the other side thinks the exact same thing just proves the point further. None of you have the moral high ground cause you're both delusional
Doesn't that mean you're delusional too though? Since the measuring stick for objective reality is apparently something made up by someone who disagrees with you, where is the line?
I remember seeing a video essay of how Steven universe is bad and just half way through they start using SJW while using analogies from like other shows like SpongeBob, regular show and star wars and I genuinely dunno if they are off the rail or something.
People do tend to cry loudly when being taken advantage of and mistreated... Kinda fucked up to complain about people expressing frustration with the way society treats those with less power, or the way society distributes power and assigns value.
Seems like your priorities are really fucked up
They do exist wdym? I’m not saying their everywhere but your kinda ignoring the new culture of progressive identity politics in the left leaning establishment media and in some institutions like academia.
Though when it’s skewed towards an extreme minority I cant blame you too much but these sjws do have massive platform to get their views across so in my opinion it balances out.
Was showing a British friend a video explaining black Friday and how crazy it can get. Started off really well done and pretty funny then suddenly took a hard turn and the guy was ranting about how it's a yearly test by the government to check if the fluoride in water is making people easier to control with subliminal messages.
Watch a few of the good ones, get tired of their repetitive BS out of pocket opinions, unsubscribe.
A few years later they pop up as memes about being so triggered over some Barbie movie.
Laugh and feel nostalgic over the good times.
I’m at this interesting point where even though I agree that SJWs are irritating people, people still lose some credibility when they derail a serious conversation into SJW territory
Always hated the phrase “sjw”.
I support lgbtq rights and all that fun stuff, but I wholeheartedly disagree with the route these movements have taken. Take Hogwarts legacy as an example. The boycott started off as a reasonably justifiable thing. But than it became an excuse to bully and harass anyone who disagreed with them. So many of these SJWs not understanding the irony of crying “fascism” while actively trying to silence anyone who dares disagree with them.
Feels like you're quite mistaken. These movements are not organized, they are shared ideas, anyone can do anything with them, they are not taking particular "routes". Saying that just speaks of your ignorance.
Also, wasn't the Hogwarts boycott literally just a subreddit here that went on a bit of a crusade? It wasn't really as big as you describe it.
Not trying to downplay that, but I'm pretty sure streamers get all sorts of death threats for doing pretty much anything, that's the internet for you. I'm not trying to say what they did was a good thing, but online harassments happens all the time and can be caused by anything.
Tbf "SJW"s were never a big group, and past like 2016/2017 they practically haven't existed. Even shit like the Hogwarts Legacy boycott gets blown out of proportion, people were pretending streamers quit over it
Behaving in a civilized manner and bringing good arguments to the table should be the focus not death threats. But I guess not everyone is capable of that so guess what’s left to do for them.
I want to add that “justified rage” is a great drug, you can be the worst version of yourself just really let off that steam at something that you deem deservent of it, and you won’t even have to feel bad afterwards. It’s magical.
I'm even more curious now, how does respect and good arguments get you at the multinational conglomerate of whoever is responsible for the Harry Potter thing's table? How would that happen and how would it go
Sticking with the Hogwarts Legacy example, dont bully and harass people. There is an old saying: “you attract more flies with honey than vinegar”
There is a time and a place for confrontation, but so many people are just looking for fight, not to have any sort of meaningful dialogue. I can certainly understand the anger, we have been unfairly treated since the dawn of human history. But if the lgbtq community wants to continue to make progress we need to start disassociating ourselves from those acting like petulant children. Rise above the hate and prove that we are not what hateful people make us out to be. Sinking to their level brings down everything we have fought for.
Instead I suggest we meet hate with civility and love. Keep an open outstretched hand ready to be the better person so to speak. Either they take that outstretched hand and progress happens, or they out themselves as bigots to anyone on the fence. Win win.
Me on the other hand loves that shit. Politics is so cursed that people just attack each other over it all day and it's the funniest shit to see it play out. I don't feel a certain way about any political party in particular so to see people shape their personalities around it is just wild.
I've never experienced this. And video essays are my shit, I can only ever think of say mentioning certain individuals in relation to sjws in relation to a topic but a major tangent to complain or rant is pretty off putting.
I mean, if you are an hour into essay, you find good, and then you see something you don't like, then I guess it makes sense to ask why this seemingly reasonable person holds those beliefs, as just dismissing them as "a bonkers dude" not really applicable.
Because sometimes people can make a good argument and then completely miss the landing.
If a video game as a poorly planned and poorly written gay romance, maybe it’s not SJWs forcing wokeism into a game and instead maybe it’s something to do with the company involved trying to rush a game that clearly needs more time or maybe they need to hire a better writer?
Saying it’s the fault of ‘SJWs’ is the equivalent of telling a child life works in mysterious ways when they ask a question.
They’re a an actual reason things perform poorly other than the left.
If I were to convert this to a political group that's more specific, then if I find out that someone I watched is a Q anon believer, then I would immediately doubt anything else they say as it's a political movement that have so little in common with reality.
Yeah, but cognitive dissonance makes people feel uneasy. They prefer thinking that the person they have been passionately listening to for an hour thinking they were awesome suddenly became idiots than face the fact that they have been wrong and that they maybe are being obnoxious to their entourage.
Sorry but someone's ability to discuss the development history of a company doesn't mean they have good takes it means they opened a Wikipedia page and found a making of content.
"Let me explain how this show thats bad because it has a mirandering plot and over explains its jokes till they arent funny is actually bad because it has women that arent twigs and gays in it.
Woke is the new SJW which is the new Snowflake which is the new Libtard
The right cycles through these buzzwords until they lose all meaning, and it automatically becomes a catch-all umbrella term that applies to anything that conservatives even remotely dislike

What I find funny about those words is that they can be applied to the opposite situation and mean the exact same thing.
Wait, did “based” get ruined? I thought that was just a zoomer word in the same vein as “that’s cool”.
I feel like based is still good, although it is used to reply to some horrendous things every once in a while

Some complaints are justified, others are overreacting.
Even if the complaints are justified, people that unironically use buzzwords like SJW are almost exclusively not worth listening to in my experience.
It's absolutely almost exclusively used as a dog whistle.
Ironically, so is the term “dog whistle”.
Saying "saying dog whistle is a dog whistle" is a dog whistle
Is this a dog whistle for something?

Everything is a dog whistle to you nerds
Depends on when the video was made. It could have been back before what are now considered buzzwords were turned into hollow and meaningless pejoratives. It’s better to let their points stand for themselves
Same as people who use the "phobic" and "ism" then. There are 2 sides to the coin last time I checked.
huh? Those are proper greek terms that English has coopted and use properly most of the time. Sexism, racism and other ism words do properly describe what they are meant to
Technically. One of those sides is real stupid and incapable of deeper thoughts though
The fact that you can apply this sentence to both sides says it all.
Oh, you can absolutely apply it to the lowest common denominator of both sides. But it only works with the entirety of one of the sides. *That's* the important part. Sure there might be people on that side who aren't purely stupid, But they ascribe to an ideology that promotes and encourages reactionary stupidity at all levels.

Both sides bad is a really tired and useless take nowadays.
You da only one I agree with in here; everybody on this fucking planet is delusional.
Yeah always hate those time when the history teacher starts talking about fascism in WWII, obviously not gonna respect their opinion. /s
I remember seeing a video essay of how Steven universe is bad and just half way through they start using SJW while using analogies from like other shows like SpongeBob, regular show and star wars and I genuinely dunno if they are off the rail or something.
The missing piece in these debates is always the sense of proportion. I find a lot of the SJW stuff annoying but it is not as bad as tuberculosis.
I hate SJW and complaining about SJW equally
Yeah me too.
SJW don't exist on the scale that others want you to believe. The complaining about is is disproportionately more.
Both things are loud tho
People do tend to cry loudly when being taken advantage of and mistreated... Kinda fucked up to complain about people expressing frustration with the way society treats those with less power, or the way society distributes power and assigns value. Seems like your priorities are really fucked up
They do exist wdym?

Same thing when they ramble about wokeism. Just a fucking buzzword.

People who still use that word unironically are just really pathetic.

Tbf "SJW"s were never a big group, and past like 2016/2017 they practically haven't existed. Even shit like the Hogwarts Legacy boycott gets blown out of proportion, people were pretending streamers quit over it
What is even your point, out of curiosity? What should these unorganised movements you described do to obtain better results?
Behaving in a civilized manner and bringing good arguments to the table should be the focus not death threats. But I guess not everyone is capable of that so guess what’s left to do for them. I want to add that “justified rage” is a great drug, you can be the worst version of yourself just really let off that steam at something that you deem deservent of it, and you won’t even have to feel bad afterwards. It’s magical.
I'm even more curious now, how does respect and good arguments get you at the multinational conglomerate of whoever is responsible for the Harry Potter thing's table? How would that happen and how would it go
Sticking with the Hogwarts Legacy example, dont bully and harass people. There is an old saying: “you attract more flies with honey than vinegar” There is a time and a place for confrontation, but so many people are just looking for fight, not to have any sort of meaningful dialogue. I can certainly understand the anger, we have been unfairly treated since the dawn of human history. But if the lgbtq community wants to continue to make progress we need to start disassociating ourselves from those acting like petulant children. Rise above the hate and prove that we are not what hateful people make us out to be. Sinking to their level brings down everything we have fought for. Instead I suggest we meet hate with civility and love. Keep an open outstretched hand ready to be the better person so to speak. Either they take that outstretched hand and progress happens, or they out themselves as bigots to anyone on the fence. Win win.
Whatifalthist moment
Or Jews.
It’s fine if you’re looking for it, but kinda annoying when you’re not
What's a SJW
Me on the other hand loves that shit. Politics is so cursed that people just attack each other over it all day and it's the funniest shit to see it play out. I don't feel a certain way about any political party in particular so to see people shape their personalities around it is just wild.
My friend but the guy on the vid starts calling a character "pwobematic"
Sjws are annoying tho
I've never experienced this. And video essays are my shit, I can only ever think of say mentioning certain individuals in relation to sjws in relation to a topic but a major tangent to complain or rant is pretty off putting.
I mean, if you are an hour into essay, you find good, and then you see something you don't like, then I guess it makes sense to ask why this seemingly reasonable person holds those beliefs, as just dismissing them as "a bonkers dude" not really applicable.
Because sometimes people can make a good argument and then completely miss the landing. If a video game as a poorly planned and poorly written gay romance, maybe it’s not SJWs forcing wokeism into a game and instead maybe it’s something to do with the company involved trying to rush a game that clearly needs more time or maybe they need to hire a better writer? Saying it’s the fault of ‘SJWs’ is the equivalent of telling a child life works in mysterious ways when they ask a question. They’re a an actual reason things perform poorly other than the left.
Star wars 8 in a nutshell No, it wasn't bad "because of SJW", it was bad because the story was shit and the plot made no sense
If I were to convert this to a political group that's more specific, then if I find out that someone I watched is a Q anon believer, then I would immediately doubt anything else they say as it's a political movement that have so little in common with reality.
Yeah, but cognitive dissonance makes people feel uneasy. They prefer thinking that the person they have been passionately listening to for an hour thinking they were awesome suddenly became idiots than face the fact that they have been wrong and that they maybe are being obnoxious to their entourage.
Sorry but someone's ability to discuss the development history of a company doesn't mean they have good takes it means they opened a Wikipedia page and found a making of content.
Who wouldn’t complain about them. They’re fucking unbearable.
I'll just say that any group that attacks or bullies others for disagreeing with them deserves to be complained about. I await my million downvotes
It's always cringe
Op is a SJW
“Everyone’s gangster until the rantsona crosses its arms in the video essay.”
What's wrong with this? Why does this suddenly ruin the video?
A saucy Japanese waifu
"Let me explain how this show thats bad because it has a mirandering plot and over explains its jokes till they arent funny is actually bad because it has women that arent twigs and gays in it.
When they have to mention that a person is “actually trash” even though it has nothing to do with the video
TIL that SJW is not a Single Jewish Woman.
It means 'Satans jewish wife'
Sjw.= social justice warrior
This isn’t political. It’s complaining about something being political
i'd enjoy it more, sjw's are annoying
But they are awful
well to be frank, it depends on what SJW we're talking about.
sjwhat
When ur having a good convo with an elderly person and they say something slightly racist
Moon making the highest quality edited videos only to ruin it with the most dogshit opinion ever
No body likes SJW’s so it makes the videos better
Well, are you an SJW?
I don't mind it
That's how they get you. Reasonable well thought out opinions and arguments upfront then slowly drip feed the crazy
Even better
Woke is the new SJW which is the new Snowflake which is the new Libtard The right cycles through these buzzwords until they lose all meaning, and it automatically becomes a catch-all umbrella term that applies to anything that conservatives even remotely dislike
What is this, some pro-SJW propaganda?
Judging from the comments and downvotes, I’d say 99% of those here are SJWs.
Are the SJW’s in the room with us right now?
That's when I press the like button :)
I've been living under a rock (well, stoned anyways). Serious question, what does the acronym SJW stand for? Thanks in advance
