Majority SJW are hypocrites, they spend all their energy and time battling against shit that's minor. Like changing the name of repos, removing certain words from a massive project etc. Making sure certain peoples feelings are protected.

Yet when it comes to serious problems in our world, like Uyghur muslims being persecuted they remain silent. Or when western countries destroy Libya and give birth slavery in Africa, they remain silent.

I don't think your mental model of the behavior of "social justice warriors" is accurate. Do you really think the people you demonize for expressing sympathy for people outside their own tribe are silent in these cases and the people you implicitly praise for keeping silent about injustices they do not suffer themselves are the heroes complaining on the internet about the treatment of the Uighurs?
