I identify far more with left-wing ideology than I do the right (though a few points of theirs have merit IMO) but I recognise the fact that the left has blood on its hands as well throughout history.
It's dangerous territory to start tarring things with the same brush like that.
That's my problem with it. People start painting with a broad brush stroke like that, when everyone in any category thinks differently. People think that there's one, militaristic, uniform idea that all people on the left wing have, it's just not true. You can't generalize the left wing just because you saw some video of anita sarkeesian, or some video of someone getting angry because they used the wrong word or something.
It's just a waste of time, and really the point I was trying to make when I made this thread, are the people who propagate that point of view, the myopic one, are basically making people hate sjws, and it increases divisiveness, and increases hatred against progressives and minorities. Just look at anyone who tries to say something progressive, they say "OH, NOW YOU WANT TO TAKE AWAY MY RIGHTS OF FREEDOM OF SPEECH! YEAH I KNOW YOU LIBERALS!" Just at the mention of something that sounds progressive.
Then you have people thinking it's so funny to say 'HAHA ARE YOU TRIGGERED? OH MY GOD THE STUPID SJW IS TRIGGERED! BTW THERE'S ONLY 2 GENDERS, FAGGOT! TRIGGERED? TRIGGERED? TRIGGERED? TRIGGERED? HAHA FUCKING AUTIST!"
