It might be because I don't read every thread, but I haven't really noticed that here...

[(Anonymous)]

It doesn't crop up here as much as other places. But you see strains of it in the 'oh yuck tumblr is nothing but a hive of sjws' when that's like saying lj is a hive of sjws. It's just a tactic to make something they dislike look worse.

[dethtoll]

Not to play devil's advocate or something but that's a reputation LJ never really gained, whereas tumblr kinda did?

(Now, certain communities on LJ, sure -- sfd_anon, for example, back when that was relevant. Dreamwidth isn't immune, either -- go visit scans_daily if you want to see how SJWs turned a comic book community into a joyless shithole with 24/7 language policing. But isolated communities aren't the same as a huge swath of tumblr, a site that has made reblogging absolute horseshit very easy.)

Race!Fail 2009 basically covered LJ from end to end when it was happening. And got the whole SJW insanity started, IMO.

[dethtoll]

I think I came in on the tail end of that, so I'm not really up on my SJW history. Refresh my memory?

[othellia]

From one of the linked summaries here:

In the world of SF/F, a respected and published writer decided she should teach others how to successfully write the "Other" when writing fiction. Someone, a PoC, then came along and said, in effect, "Hmm, you're not really doing it so well yourself, and in your latest book, here are some problems I see." Many of the writer's friends, also professional writers/editors in the SF/F genre, jumped in and started attacking the critic. The writer let this go on in her LJ and it got progressively uglier.

[dethtoll]

Wow.

See, I didn't really find F!S until maybe late 2009, I think. Might be 2010 -- whichever year Callisto's "Providence" came out.

[othellia]

Ah. I didn't find F!S until later as well, but I'd been on LJ since 2006, so I heard about stuff through similar channels.

[(Anonymous)]

"SJW" stuff got started on lj? And really SJW is still only being used for "social justice stuff I disapprove of" it's kind of fucking annoying.

[dethtoll]

I remember sfd_anon was a thing before tumblr activism/identity politics was.
