Over Social Justice For Good
I’m done with social justice, y’all — for realz!
Seriously, what does that even mean: social justice? I looked the shite up and found something like “justice in terms of the distribution of wealth, opportunities, and privileges within a society.” Really? They need a special term for that? Calling it social justice makes it sound like some luxurious afterthought.
After all the important stuff gets taken care of. After all the real justice gets dished out (justice at the hands of perpetrators of some of the most unjust shite in the history of the world, mind you) you can then take the time to think about the social part of justice. Social justice is a specialty item you can take or leave based on your political leanings. It’s justice that’s debatable.
I’m calling bullshit. Think of the crimes committed, especially in the United States, by western cultures against the rest of the world. Shoot, giving back what was stole from Africa, Asia, the Southern Hemisphere in general is just plain justice if you ask me, which y’all never do. When you look at images of that history, it’s one hell of a snuff film. From all the lynchings in the American South, to stories of the trail of tears, to the annihilation of those two Japanese cities full of innocent civilians.
The west has never, and probably will never, be held accountable for the campaign of violence it’s waged against the rest of the world. The idea of a “fair” distribution of the loot that got stole from people who now get to live as second-class citizens on their own planet—that includes women, who have been having their labor stole for millennia—is frigging ridiculous!
So, no, I don’t wanna here shite about no social justice. Give me my shit back, please. That’s all the justice I need.
