No I don't think it's justice, but there's no such thing as true justice so I'm going to celebrate what we get

You mean a political, economic, and judicial system that is actually for the people? Holds greed, narcissism and psychopathy accountable instead of creating fascist dystopia, destroying the planet and billions of lives, along with most life on earth?

Man, that timeline would've been sweet.

This is justice because it makes the rich scared and likely to alienate the public even more. As they become paranoid, they'll overcorrect and make people realize that they're the enemy. They foolishly made class warfare the only avenue for change. They've created actual anarchy by executing liberal democracy for being too woke. Fucking dumbasses didn't realize how good they had it.

Hear, hear! There's nothing* holding the worst back any more, they've practically rubbed our fucking faces in it by now. Culminating in the Supreme Court ruling in favor of literal immunity for any presidential action? For real? How is anyone supposed to read that?

Look there's been a goddamn parade of degradations over the years, but boy. The weird inhuman parasite class sure couldn't help but take it too far, could they? Couldn't even just sacrifice one of their own to keep some plausible deniability on normalcy? Well, of course not, they wouldn't be what they are otherwise, I guess.

* Well. Not nothing...

I think of it not as being right, or good, but truly just. Justice was never about being good or right, but a manifestation of karma. Like the 'ol "If a son shall strike is father, his hand will be cut off".

If you hold responsibility for decisions that unjustly, for no good reason, killed people, death is a just punishment.

As the one of the oldest laws of justice, "An eye for an eye".
