SJW
Keyboard political fighter
SJW is an acronym for "social justice warrior," a dismissive term for someone seen as excessively or performatively concerned with progressive causes like racism, sexism, or LGBTQ rights.
Critics use it to suggest the person is more interested in public displays of virtue than meaningful change: The SJWs are going to lose their minds over this.
The term emerged from online culture wars and carries a sneer.
