I have only ever seen SJW used as a pejorative, YMMV.

  Well, you seem to be admitting that the term might be used differently than you have personally seen. I would say you were being a bit too preachy then. Not that I disagree with you really, it's just I don't like to see people getting really close to using the tactics they seem to be speaking out against.

    When someone is condemning others for being filled with hate while labeling their object of condemnation as "vile" and labeling them with a term virtually always used as a pejorative, they are looking very guilty of the crime they accuse others of. Even if the term SJW might in some rare cases not be a pejorative, when mixed with "vile" and "hate-filled" it's hard to see it as anything else. I don't know or care what "tactics" means, I was just pointing out hypocrisy and suggesting self-reflection. I don't mind if others think I'm preachy for doing so.

      Then I would say, in that case, you are using the very tactic you claim to dislike.

        I don't have any idea what "tactic" means in this context, and didn't claim to dislike a term where I've already explained that I don't even know what the term means. In fact, I didn't make any claim to dislike anything in this thread. I did point out that using pejoratives along with terms like "vile" and "hate-filled" is hypocritical.

          Ah, I see now, you are indeed correct. My saying you dislike the term is just my interpretation of your posts, my bad.
