as much as the term SJW may have been coined to specifically define people who take it "one step too far" with death threats to those under things they cannot control, the term itself is widely used by pretty much everyone to label anything that seems remotely progressive at times.

i mean hell, yesterday on YouTube I saw a comment on a Markiplier video that said "i kept screaming at the screen telling mark where to go and he never listened to me! typical man attitude :)" and there were like, fifty responses of people calling her "feminist bitch" and "sjw trash" and other stupidly demeaning terms

though the phrase is used to describe someone who is so adamant about progressiveness that they're basically weaponizing it, it's commonly misused to attack anyone who argues against the norm
