It could be the crazy goes in cycles...we just happen to be somewhere near peak crazy? I'm going to compare it to the great peanut scare of the early 2000's. Seemed like every kid had a peanut allergy. They'd shut down classrooms and evacuate school buses because of errant peanuts.
Now that I think about it, it could also be that that particular crazy has just become the norm. Just like medicating the f*** out of kids has also become the norm.
Also, from my experience, SJW seems to have its roots in the PC (politically correct) movement that sprang up when I was in grade school. People talked about being PC or not PC. We would also joke about how we would eventually not be able to say anything straight because everything would become "un-PC". I guess those jokes have now become this reality.
