For example, remember the head of team that landed probe on a comet.

He was attack for a shirt that his wife got him.
Do you considered that a justified attack on him?
In tech and almost every other aspect of life.
> and this particular thing was one of the manifestations of sexism in tech
How? He wore a shirt his wife bought him. He was never accused by his coworkers of anything.
> I can't blame the people reacting to this when they face this kind of culture
I can blame them. That was unjust character assassination. It was objectively wrong and UNjust that's the opposite of the second letter in sjw.
And that's the core issue with this thinking. I am right even when I am wrong as long as I fell like i am fighting against evil.
