Most of the people that I hang with are liberal, and I've only met one actual "crazy, purple hair type SJW' in my life. She was a young, bisexual chick from SoCal. (very talented girl)
These people exist more online than in real life.
And I think people are more putting on a show and being stupid rather than actually believing in this shit. You get a group of dumb people together, and they tend to do dumb shit. Put a camera in front of their face, and they'll say dumb shit. Steer them in a direction, and they'll go. Most people are sheep.
@Zer You see in the OP that Victoria's secret not having trans models! You stil wearing their thongs or boycotting?
They didn't though. This is how this went. Iraq war. Anti-war political groups rally college campuses across the country.
Obama wins election, the wars continue, protest movements go away, and all of a sudden we have this SJW stuff.
College kids are being told to be outraged at social non-sense, so we don't have Vietnam war protests part 2.
It is working.
Probably, but at this point, even moderate liberals are sick of it and are quickly disassociating themselves from those who go all Autistic on the internet because a white person wore a giesha , or because there's opposition to men identifying as little girls, or because a white person had an opinion on something.
It's a reaction to people being homophobes since forever. And it's a reaction against people like you who uses the term "SJW" as a term for the ultimate evil.

Agreed. That said, there is a small minority of SJW types that go way too far with political correctness and fuck it up for all those who are normal people that just realize that carrying on like it’s the fucking 1950s, making fun of minorities simply for not being white, is probably not ok.
It's the beginning of the thought police
A few games got flack for not including xyz types in, and with the busy schedules, they've had to focus on including stuff and in the end the quality of the product suffersTo address your Stan Lee and after comments, a few idiots exercising their right to freedom of expression doesn't represent a trend or a movement.
Regarding your pre-Stan Lee comments, you are correct that the SJW mentality has infiltrated Hollywood and even Broadway. This I know from personal experience. Games I know nothing about, but I don't doubt that it's there too. While I do think much of it is ridiculous, and that it's a corruption of an art form, I don't see it as an influence on society; I think it's the other way around. What's happening in society has been an influence on Hollywood and Broadway, and I guess games too.

This SJW stuff has had literally 0 impact on my day to day life. The only time I even hear about is is bullshit rag articles on the internet which I ignore.

You're lucky dude. My wife told me that a oair of husband and wife friends won't come around and socialise with us anymore because of my pointing out the nonsense behind modern feminism when they bring it up. This is when I quote government statistics to prove a point, and with me being an avowed feminist..
I have academically minded friends though so it's not surprising I encounter this stuff a lot.
