I'd argue based on the comment, that @tsjq understands social justice quite well, including the unshakable truth that you cannot use institutionalized racism and bias as a remedy to racism and bias.

Doing so not only perpetuates the evils of the discrimination, but amps it up to eleven, because now it is done with the full force and power of the government.

There is no policy basis more evil and counter-productive than the left's modern concept of "social justice", which is hateful and unjustifiably retributive at its heart. (Viz the left's current efforts to eliminate the truly blind auditions used in orchestras - according to the SJWs, merit must not be allowed to allocate job slots to the most capable and talented. That's the path to Harrison Bergeron...)
