The poor deserve just as much protection from the criminal and civil justice system as the rich. By all means fight for justice.
'Social' justice is about doling out political and economic favors to social groups. It has nothing to do with justice.
Agreed. I'm glad you worded this better than I.
I'm also fine with still using the term 'feminazi'

What's this "real men" shit? I disagree with this whole line of thinking.
Also, it's usually bullshit: "Real men pay child support. Real men drive minivans. Real men wear a dress if they want to." The fact is that many men are misogynist assholes-- and they are still real men.
As for feminazis: I think the usage of "nazi" is pretty obvious-- it's about the level of vehemence, hostility, and implied aggression that comes with some kinds of feminism.
