The SJW house \u2014 built on weird, self-contradictory, incoherent academic dogma \u2014 victimizes itself with its own inertia.<\/p>\n<p>Such ideologically-driven social engineering endeavors fail, on a long enough timeline, without exception. The principal cause is that they are not rooted in material reality. Nor do they justify themselves. Nor are their abstract theories sufficiently tested in real-world conditions.<\/p>\n<p>The SJW phenomenon went supernova circa 2014, and is now in the process of imploding into a black hole.
