Why is everyone a social justice warrior?

Why can't people be a social justice mage. Or a social justice rogue?

Why is everyone choosing the same class?

Budget cuts only allow for warrior training.

They tried to expand the budget for other class options, but the feeling was that was 'too much money' and 'not well spent' and 'why should I have to pay more taxes for what is basically the same thing?'

It's sad, but it's the way things are these days.

Social justice warrior is a prestige class, but you can be any base class as long as you meet the prerequisites.

Here I was worried about this thread until I opened it.

Yet now, here I am and I find a hearty chuckle overcomes me.

I tend to agree, sometimes I wonder if the world would be better off with more choices, after all a social justice paladin or druid might very well be a better choice depending on what cause they champion. Also, maybe this is already a valid choice and we've just been tricked by the mainstream media into mislabeling everyone as the same class, when in fact, there are already droves of social justice bards and monks out there who just can't get their messaging right.

The mainstream media simply doesn't comprehend the mind-boggling number of classes that social justice heroes have access to. I mean, come on, they label all these folks with an NPC class, how insulting is that?

I once played a Rogue that returned everything he ever stole in the game, not sure if that's what you mean by social justice rogue. He all so practiced Gandhian nonviolence throughout the entire game. He spent most all his treasure that game paying poor people to build themselves homes.

I had a Sorceress who would ensure that 'her' local community never wanted for anything, and that her cohort and followers never had even the least bit to worry about -- even if something happened to her in the permanent fashion, they all had trusts set up for them.

She's Chaotic Neutral - started off sliding towards Pure Ebil but ran into a few NPCs who'd gone that route and fell in love with a different NPC and was like "I may be completely against laws and orders and all that crazy stuff, but I'ma gonna make damn sure my people are always taken care of."

Looking up at the last 3 people's avatars to post to this, looks like we may have just gathered a murder of crows, I swear I have killed no one... recently.

Well why not?

I'm not a warrior, I'm just a person that believes EVERYONE should be treated equally and I'm not afraid to stick up for anyone not being treated equally.

Make of that what you will.
