Why are those two things mutually exclusive? That's a false opposition and has nothing to do with the matter at hand. Misleading, hyperbole-filled rhetoric doesn't help anybody and just attracts people to causes based on false premises, making them more likely to buy into the false premises that 'social injustice' as such is rooted on.
