"Social Justice" is the Antonym of Justice


Burt Prelutsky writes about his recent speech at a Rotary Club lunch, after which he says this truism:
I said that justice is justice, whereas "social justice" is code for one set of rules for the rich, another for the poor; one set for whites, another set for minorities; one set for straight men, another for women and gays. In short, I pointed out, it's the opposite of actual justice.
And so it is.
