We are going to discuss "justice" and "injustice", that is, to give a systematic interpretation of these two terms.

So, let's take an example:

If citizen A steals citizen B's money, then I assume that A is unjust; And if citizen B is a powerful landlord who does all kinds of evil, and A steals from him and robs the rich to help the poor, then is A still unjust?

Therefore, we say that justice or injustice is just our own subjective judgment. Since ancient times, there has been no scientific explanation for the analysis of justice or injustice. Then we assume: "Man is the measure of justice and injustice." ”

However, if justice or injustice is judged by the subjective feelings of individuals, then there is no order in society, and there is no guarantee of security for people. Because, at any time, you will become an "unrighteous person" for hindering the interests of others. As a result, in order to keep the established interests and obtain more benefits, people will gradually form a so-called alliance with each other; And as this alliance grows, it slowly evolves into a state, and then the meaning of justice and injustice changes. It has changed from people as a yardstick to a measure of national interests, that is, "law".

It is foolish to think that the reason why the concepts of "justice" and "injustice" have been blurred in ancient and modern times is that the scale has changed secretly! According to Socrates (or Plato), virtue is justice. Virtue, he said, is a quality in a person's heart, and the corresponding is the desire for injustice. In this regard, he overemphasizes the impact of individual values on justice and ignores macro constraints. On the basis of this theory, Su proposed that "injustice is not as good as justice". This is a great fallacy. He undoubtedly confuses the definition of "justice" with "injustice".

"Law" is the yardstick for the country to measure "justice" and "injustice" and the guarantee to safeguard national interests; Externally, the state enforces "justice" through diplomacy or war. Therefore, "justice" or "injustice" is a reflection of the national interest. To sum it up, "justice" and "injustice" are relative. If you insist on giving it a concept, you have to use dialectics to break it down.
