So, I'm curious where this narrative comes from, because I first met "social justice warrior"s in the 90's and they where very much claiming that brand. I mean, they where made fun of but that seemed to validate the "warrior" part in their mind. Now it seems the brand is being dropped but, not because it was never the brand in the first place.

Edit: for context I don't think of the people who got the military work stopped as Social justice warriors. This may be because I tend to avoid the term. I'm still curious about this dropping of the brand thing though.
