Not sure the point of your question. If you can cite examples of womyn’s studies majors speaking as and/or for SJWs on this board, please post them. Otherwise, we can’t tell who you’re asking about or answer your question.  
Just as an FYI, I know plenty of people with liberal arts degrees making over $70K so you’re wrong there.  
Finally, if you want anyone to take you seriously here, knock off the “lol” crap. Especially if you’re trying to look more intelligent and well-spoken than the rest of us.

Can he finish a sentence without lol?

Or, just spit-balling here, a troll?

The amusing thing is that he thinks his statements are actually upsetting.

IIRC, almost everyone here is above age 30. Many Dopers are in the age 50-70 range.

Not much different than **doorhinge** always starting a sentence with “Hahahahaha”.

And **CJ** thinks “liberal arts” has anything to do with being a liberal.

I get the distinct feeling **Calico Jack** gets bullied a lot in real life. So he comes to boards like these so he can pretend he’s the big “tough” guy.

Seriously, Following his posts he’s made mention of how girls are so easy for him. And he mocked “nice guys” for wondering why chicks go for the bad boys. And he also has this obsession with “safe spaces”.

I kind of do feel bad for the guy. It makes me worry if the thrill off trolling boards like these ever wears off, if he won’t go off himself somewhere.

Scarily, I get more of “kill the school” vibe from him.

Good catch. I think I’ll lower my age guess to 16. Definitely not in college.

I think he spells fairly well for a conservative.

I keep finding comfort that, predominantly, male [Calicos](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calico_cat) are rare, and most often sterile.

What’s even more amusing about a calico being a cat is the OP in another thread whined about “real men” not being manly. The funny thing is that J. Calico is basically a pu…well,you know.

The OP is very obviously trying to get a rise out of people and very obviously bad at it.

But surely if he finishes all his posts with lol people will know he is laughing at them, lol.

Actually, looking at the original post, I see it ends with “lol. :smack:”

If, on the subway for example, I saw a person laughing out loud and hitting himself in the forehead, I’m confident I would ease away from them, though I might prepare myself to call 911 in case he seemed about to harm himself or others.

I thought the problem with liberals was that we were all rich, out-of-touch $7 latte drinkers who live in expensive cities and can’t relate to the real Americans who average $50k in household income. Turns out we’re the ones who don’t make good money! Thanks for clearing that up!

sigh…the depressing thing about your string of quasi-related threads is your utter inability to listen and learn or even challenge your own opinions.

As has been mentioned already, the dope is an eclectic bunch of people. \*Smart \*people.  
I’m clever. Objectively so. And yet my intellect and every other individual is dwarfed by the breadth and depth of SME’s on this site. Most of us are humble enough to realise that we don’t know everything and take the opportunity to learn where we can.

You seen unable or unwilling to do so and I suspect you are already tipping over into parody with the status of board chew-toy soon to follow.

Personally I’m hoping that with the amount of straw the OP uses on a regular basis he has a good fire prevention system installed. Safety first!
