And that's the fundamental problem I have with SJWs. They first assume that straight white men (and straights, whites and men in general) desire only to control, oppress and subjugate everyone else. That's fine. I don't necessarily agree with that, but I can understand why they might draw that conclusion. But then they turn around and insult everyone else by assuming that any person of x demographic who doesn't march in lockstep with their dogma is too stupid or ignorant to see the truth. Just tells me they're not actually interested in social justice, but in one-upping each other on how PC they are. They dilute the message, and their bad behaviour sours people who might otherwise be swayed. They're just a small minority of the wider social justice movement, and yet they have a very real, very dangerous effect. It's sad, really.

Isn't that scene ironic and entirely intended to take the piss out of the superficial sentiment?

The character who says "let's kill all the lawyers" is the entertainingly stupid anarchist of a comic relief subplot in one of the Henry VI plays (I think part 2, they all sort of blur into one play for me). The next thing that happens is they lynch a clerk because he can write, and teaching people to write makes them not true Englishmen. It's really quite a funny scene if you like insane troll logic humour.
So anyway, lawyer-killing isn't something Shakespeare said, it's something Shakespeare used as a throw-away joke.


Aaaand, that's enough soapboxing for one day.

This is why I tend to be so hard on SJWs, often as hard on them online as I am to dudebros and other majority-peoples offline, and why I rail so hard against them. It's really hard to tell my male friends to knock it off with the "feminazi" bullshit when many feminists are actually acting like the stereotype of feminazis. -_-
