True Justice

It's funney how this isn't obvious from a young age, especially being someone who has always spotted the truth in observations from people who totally contradicted themselves. But...

Justice is really made up of 2 parts, the justice in principal and the enforcement of said justice.
So many people (including myself) are just the former, all talk and no action. Justice doesn't just happen. I, like many know what is right but never do anything about it. We just vent to our friends and family and online and nothing comes of it. I would hazard a guess that 90% of what we say in our lives are in fact an experssion of how we are doing/coping and never amount to anything.

I have taken over 25 years to reach this obvious fact about justice. Like I used to assume that justice just happened by some act of God and just being right was enough in other peoples minds. It isn't, it really isn't. Everyone has a world view and they will fight to protect it, right or wrong.

But the question is how do you change things knowing you are right about a particular aspect of society and yet no one else complains, or do they... to themselves maybe... quietly. Is that a nieve sense of humility, not complaining? But if everyone did complain and was vocal enough about it then companies and the government might be democratic about it. Maybe complaining publicly is the answer, on a specific website would seem like an appropriate place. One for local issues, one for national issues and one for universal issues. At this point the universal one might just be a place for idealism is I don't think there is any international law.

Just a thought
