By using the term "sjw" I think you significantly diminish the strength of your argument. Why did you choose that word?

Is privacy only the concern of social justice warriors? Have you met rural American preppers?



sjw = individual who promotes socially progressive views. socially progressive views could include society attitude towards privacy.


Unfortunately, I don't think your personal definition of the word is in step with common parlance, hence my comment.

>Social justice warrior (SJW) is a pejorative term for an individual who promotes socially progressive views, including feminism, civil rights, and multiculturalism, as well as identity politics.

If you continue to use it to mean, just, "a liberal," people are going to misunderstand your point.


Yes, I used the Wikipedia definition. Not sure what do you mean by "a liberal"


Because to me "individual who promotes socially progressive views" just means "liberal," while SJW is an actual pejorative.
