I find that people who complain about "social justice warriors" tend to be intolerant of any viewpoints except their own being presented.


That is true of some, but more often it's the folks getting called SJWs that are intolerant of views other then there own, that is partly why they are getting called that in the first place. Of course there are those on the right who just carelessly toss the SJW, or White Knight around like feminists toss the word mysongonist around till it's completely devalued.

Personally prefer the term professionally offended to SJW, but it never caught on.

For background I'm former feminist turned MRA, still very, very leftwing, but much more culturally Libertarian then I was in my youth, when at times I was what you could call an SJW, when I realized how authoritianism element of Political Correctionness was self defeating ultimately and often not honest and even down right hypocritical.

I still vote for feminists because there is common ground on stuff like social programs and the economy.
