Try none of the above! There is no "large scale movement" that I can see, this literally only exists in your imagination. If you say something that pisses people off, you could blame their negative reaction on (1) some abstract "movement" that is brainwashing people on a large scale, or (2) you could be voicing an unpopular opinion, or (3) you could be deeply wrong in whatever this truth is that you feel like you can't say. Just because someone takes exception to something you say doesn't mean that there's some grand conspiracy to silence you, although I'm sure believing that makes you feel better about yourself.


There is a difference between "taking an exception" and shouting someone down

Here are some example in everyday real life that have occurred recently and been recorded, situations like I link below happen every day, and are often never recorded. There are also HUGE numbers of people that self censor so as to not draw that attention of the rabid SJW.

It should be pointed out, that the people shooting the video believed they were in the right, believe they where showing the world a bigot, or racist, or misogynist. They believe their actions is the proper reaction to encountering such a person. So the question I posit to you is. Do you agree with their actions, would you agree with their actions if the target of their rage would have actually been a racist, or misogynist?

If you believe these are proper reactions, and the persons in the video are simply "calling out" behavior they dislike, then you prove my point that you are infact a SJW and can not identify them because of that fact.

The people highlighted in the video are I admit extreme example, but not too extreme. SJW is a raising trend, it started probably 10 years or so ago in Universities, and is spread on a massive scale to HR dept's in major companies, and to every day interactions like the ones shown in the video.

It is not a conspiracy, it is reality.
