And yet, even Avi feels the need to profess fealty and bend the knee to "social justice" even as the movement rears its ugly, hateful, discriminatory fangs.
You cannot worship the system that is killing you and also push back against it. You must recognize that "social justice" is a vague, all-encompassing justification for anything that empowers the radical left. It is a movement built upon creating new injustices to fix the old ones - except for China, which consistently gets a free pass on everything because the money is good enough for the "social justice" believers to look the other way. A movement that supports wrecking the poor with lockdowns but thinks the West Bank is the worst atrocity in the world.

"It is a movement built upon creating new injustices to fix the old ones..." Excellent! I might even suggest, "It's a movement built upon creating new injustices to rephrase and reframe the old ones that are being ignored." Great post!
Well, the charities he describes seem like worthy causes, building up those at the bottom of the ladder rather than tearing down the top, in other words, the opposite of "social justice" in the U.S. But no doubt his greatest contribution to real social justice is providing jobs.
You nailed it. “Social Justice” is the Leftists’ motte for so many of the controversial, counterproductive & destructive goals (Baileys) they're truly pushing - goals very few would support, but who can object to “social justice”?
Social Justice is Mob Rule. Naming it truthfully is the first step to fixing it.

Don't be a hater.
