If you're not already convinced that the term "social justice warrior" is now devoid of meaning, note this comment.

It is essentially an ad hominem in rhetorical question form. Attacks in any form are unfortunate. Pointing to and asking for the attack to terminate directly and politely is a generally preferred response, but if this is unwelcome then next time I will immediately flag the communication for moderator review.
