Does justice turn a blind eye to criminal acts being committed and break laws/ ignore laws as a means to protect them and then prosecute the victims of crimes who still believe in their right to use a gun to defend themselves and their property from gangs of criminals? It's Liberal justice that your side represents and it was Liberal justice that emboldened and empowered the Bolshevik's and the Nazi's as well. I don't think you realize that American justice is a double edged sword that can cut both ways.(10-14-2020, 03:22 PM)Isoko Wrote: That said, I sort of still disagree with Eric that the future will be left wing. I think that people are starting to get tired of the left, at least in the West. I think the future belongs ultimately to the centrist with swings to centre right and centre left culture depending on the mood of the times. But centrist it will be.
I sort of agree, as long as you realize that the center gradually moves left over time, although in fits and starts and cycles. The moral arc of the universe is long, but it moves and bends toward justice. Left means progress toward justice, broadly defined. You could even extend that to the history life on Earth and call it evolution-- creative evolution, that is! Humans continue to evolve, and life presses out and grows better and better. That is our nature, our very being now!
