This article is full of shit. There's so much bias here that I can't even distinguish this from an actual alt-right viewpoint. Why does Wikipedia always constantly side with right-wing biases? Rewrite it all, as it basically feeds towards legitimate terrorism. 65.49.155.104 (talk) 23:03, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Can you list any specific examples of items that need to be changed or that represent this bias you are seeing? I know this reply is a bit late, coming a month after the comment, but without specific examples and supporting reliable sources, how do we know what to rewrite?

Use of the SJW label by moderate/centrist liberals to attack so-called extreme SJ activists
I have heard the term Social Justice Warrior used as a pejorative by some on the left, usually more center-left/moderate/centrist types. They tend to use it as pejorative for progressive social justice activists who they perceive adhering to an extreme orthodoxy in their beliefs, without any willingness to engage in debate in areas of social justice where legitimate debate still exists with the left. It also is applied to SJ activists seen as having their heart in the right place but using methods to promote social justice that do more harm to the cause then help. Those who disagree with these particular SJW's in question within the left, are said to be unfairly characterized as self-hating or unwittingly pawns for conservative/right-wing critics of social justice rather then simply having legitimate disagreement about particular aspects of social justice reform. I don't know if we can find reliable sources that discuss the pejorative use of the term by some on the left-wing better but if we can we should better cover the left-wing/liberal use of the term as a pejorative for fellow activists whom they take issue with.
