    That's why I like the appropriation of 'justice' that the NJP is trying to claw back from the jaws of the left. Of course it's originally our term and was the name of Father Coughlin's publication which focused on the JQ, non-interventionism and populist/distributist economics.

    As simplistic as it sounds a lot of people are motivated by the most superficial things and we need to appropriate them. What person in good conscience could say they were against the idea of 'justice'? This is what Conservatives get wrong as well because they try to turn 'SJW' just into an insult but then the left can just turn around and say 'What are you against social justice or something? What kind of monster are you?' and that simple little game is enough to win the argument for them.

    No it isn't. "SJWs" are so broadly unpopular today that it's become boring and mainstream to criticise them.
