I am not against SJW.. One day soon, we will have to stand next to them and fight together as brothers and sisters. There is no need to make a future friend into an eternal enemy. Let's just talk real sense amongst each other?

I used to think that way. After attempting two doctorate programs in education -- both of which tried to shove SJ readings down our throats -- I now see Social Justice as communism disguised as a moral fight against injustice. Our Bill of Rights attempts to provide rights to individuals so that even if you belong to a minority group in a democracy (where majority rules), you STILL have basic rights. Social Justice negatively judges whole groups of people in exactly the opposite way of the American Ideal. The American Ideal is that regardless your race, sex, or religion, you can be free and protected. You will be judged by your character, ingenuity, and work ethics -- not surface characteristics. You can privately own things and develop those things -- and sell goods & services. Again and again, people from all walks of life rose above their upbringings & origins. Although not perfect, given historical context, cultural prejudices, etc.that were obstacles, but the Constitution & Ideals fought those old prejudices and people from all walks of life prospered more than any other place.

Social Justice proponents, however, judge people based upon skin color, gender identity, and belief systems. They don't care about my work ethic or deeds. They don't care about what good deeds or bad deeds people have done or not done. They focus on forcing society into a status of "equity." In other words, they want to take away everything I live for and create an oppressive, communist-bureaucratic state, forcing people to identify with groups & classes, be praised or blamed solely based upon your identification with these groups -- and fads -- and chuck out your interests and freedoms.

Social Justice proponents are the enemy of the United States of America and all it stands for. It will overturn our Constitution and basic rights if it continues to grow.

They don't necessarily know the damage they are doing is all I mean. It can escalate divisiveness if SJWs are seen as a grouping of they. That would mean we have fallen into the same trap of labelling somebody by a group identity. Am I wrong?

Well, in the US to stand and fight social injustices together the left needs to stop manufacturing crises and claiming them as injustices, like institutional racism, systemic brutality by police against minorities, white privilege, etc. How do we fight these injustices when the crises live somewhere out there in the ether.

It's difficult to get somebody to look up facts...to research the topics in an honest way. Television has it's narratives, reinforced through much of social media. In today's society (at least in the U.S.) people get most of their information from these two places and rarely bother to check any resources. When the subjects discussed elicit an emotional response, the task is nearly impossible. That task, gearing a conversation toward self evaluation and fact checking is often seen as an attack on somebody's sensibilities.

There can be no “Social Justice” until we accept that each individual has a responsibility to the society in which we live. If there is indeed injustice, we should strive to fight it. Unfortunately, most of what we see in the modern SJW movement is groups seeking special treatment rather than equality, and I just can’t support that concept. This nation was founded on individual liberty and its corollary individual responsibility, and until we get back to this basic truth we are in for a rough ride with government taking a larger role in more aspects of our lives.

No of course not against people. I am firmly against their philosophy.

That's the problem, we can't. There is no talking for the far left or far right. Their violence is very rarely justified and they can never agree on a rational level of outrage. Everything slightly to the right or left of them is an enemy in their eyes.
Simpletons lust violence against others.
