Yeh, US is pretty intense for social justice. I'd love to see a timeline and some kind of justification as to why it became such a strong force. I remember not even knowing what "social justice" mean't.
Like all the people's time and energy invested in social justice today...what would these same people have been investing their energy in before 2010s?
What I see is that people love being outraged, purpose-driven, and procrastination. And with social justice, while you're procrastinating, you can be outraged, and you can join a movement and gain a purpose.
Social media is probably to blame.
- urbanj 9y agoWow you've missed the point completely - techbro. Hilarious. In China there are fewer barriers to women entering the tech industry - it is not perceived there to be a bastion of bro-ness. Therefore there are more women in the tech. Morons like you are in tech and fighting hard to prevent more capable people coming in because you know, deep down, how easy it would be to outcompete you. Oh - and do some reading on the suffragette movement, the fight against slavery, the fight against racism if you need to know how social justice was before you stopped sucking on your mama's teet. Asshole
