Despite some questionable uses of that word, I have to admit that it's a useful classifier for what has essentially become a consolidated political movement. Everyone seems to know the ideology it's describing when they hear it, and I don't know of another term that does that. On another tangent: "SJW" was originally coined by social justice warriors as a way to describe themselves. It only became an offensive word once people started lampooning it, but it's still a fair term to use given its history and original intent. |

Yes, words only become slurs by being used as slurs, and many words that have become slurs were earlier terms preferred or accepted by the people it is now used as a source against.
