I think we have by far more reactionaries here than SJWs. In my time here I don't think I saw one sincere SJW that was not just a Holla Forums troll.
I'll give an example: BLM. It's often criticized here and looked down upon by members of the community. The claim is that it is identity politics and utilized by the neoliberal agenda to distract from the class struggle, enforcing Black and White identities instead. This is an ignorant view to hold. The only way you can come to this conclusion is if you're radically un- or misinformed.
To solidarise yourself with BLM does not mean you're a SJW. Racism and sexism are essential to the class struggle, especially in the US. The US is a country that is deeply entrenched in ideology and the capitalist rule of a small ruling class is controlled through it. A support of BLM inevitably means that the control of the White establishment is threatened and through this the hegemony of capitalism as well. To highlight the unfairness with which Black people have been treated and are treated in the US is to question the very fundamental values from which it draws its legitimacy as the greatest country on Earth. Many BLM activists are outspoken lefties (actual lefties, not liberals) and criticism of capitalism is essential to them. To denounce them is you just falling for establishment propaganda.

So close, and yet so far…
"They cared more about his class than they cared about his identity. He was born wealthy and he was born into one of the well to do german families, and so he had a good upbringing, right? So they cared more that he was rich than he was gay. If you were poor or middle class and gay you were going to the gas chambers, but if you were rich you were going to orgies and having the time of your life while you were sending others to the chambers."

You have to work with and in all democratic movements as long as they allow communist agitation. The point is to raise class conciousness, not pouting and expecting everything to already have it.

How is it race reductionist? Of course it will drive White moderates to the right, their economic position and way of life is threatened by the discriminated fighting back. If the White majority was sympathetic towards the struggle of the oppressed the US wouldn't be the extremely right-wing capitalist society it is.
I recommend ´´From #BlackLivesMatter to Black Liberation´´ by Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor. In her book she outlines how Americans and in particular Black people have been failed by Obama and liberals and how the BLM can serve as a useful catalyst to fight capitalism.
