Re: I think SJWs are fucking with my head

It sounds like you just need to sit down and figure out what your own values in all this are. SJW's are very good at manifestos and "cracking down", but they're absolutely terrible at transcribing important values into your personal life.

Being aware is a good thing, it just doesn't mean you're obligated to judge everything in this black-and-white, zero-sum, zero tolerance way. You are free to like people and media that isn't perfect without being a terrible person or an apologist. Likewise, people can say dickish things without it overwriting everything else about their personality.


It's up to you where to draw those lines. Media is easier because you can openly criticize it, provide feedback, or if it really crosses a line, stop feeding it money.

Like, I really enjoyed Ender's Game. I really hate Orson Scott Card. He's a malicious homophobic bigot. So I bought the book used so he wouldn't see any money from it.

That sort of thing. ~The Power is Yours~, anon.
