Fantasy and sci-fi writers, good ones at least in my opinion are first and foremost there to tell a great frickin' story. That's no.1.
Number 2, if they have enough talent, they'll use it to shake things up, question the norm, or make a political statement, without, and this is important, ruining the story.
They are not there to correct social injustices or pander to SJ on twitter.
They write because they have things bottled up inside them that need to come out.

That's kind of the problem though, the SJW's are very vocal about what get's written (and by whom), but more people seem to be buying the non-pc stuff, so you would probably make more money writing what you want.
Well, you'd probably make more money writing about a suicidally depressed 17 year old being taken sexual advantage of by a much older man with substance dependency and anger issues (That's the plot of Twilight if you missed it)
