There are people who manipulate the language of social justice to get what ever they want. They use this to bully others and acquire social capital, and they are abusive just as much as anyone else.

You can identify this by challenging them. People who have good faith views can discuss them. People who are being a shithead will either evade or go on the attack.

No matter how red/black your flag, or how woke you speak, you can absolutely still be a piece of shit.

Thank you for trying to support conversation. I am not a social justice person, but try to discuss this stuff with lots of people to try and understand their perspective and mentality.
It is really shocking how many people consider a display of a different viewpoint as an affront. I am regularly blocked or insulted.
We may think differently and that may never change, but discussion helps us all see the humanity in one another. That helps avoid conflict in the log run.
