    AND! in fact, law and justice are never the same;  BUT, one just has to love the sentiment considering the source.

    The unbiased law and justice are always the same, it's the consensus misrepresented bullying and justice that are never the same.

    Sillik, your socialist's word salad is less than frivolous and without meaning. By example; law is always unbiased. It is the philosophy of men that is biased (such as your preferred theocratic socialism under legal positivism). Justice can never in truth or actuality be placed in the same sentence or subject matter as bullying. Justice, like law, continues constant and unchanged. It is the application of men's philosophy's (such as socialism), that needs change the meaning of words, concepts, etc. to fully misrepresent a consensus of unlawful, injustice and bullying.

    Mike Norwalk Sir, Justice is a element of life, and as the more we understand what it is, we will grow with it and adjust our terms appropriately. The posted laws do not typically serve the human promoting element, they serve typically the tradition of death. Any service to life is the Socialist's justice. Life is the knew dimension, it is completely different from the death "constant." Life grows takes on more appropriate language, behavior and resilience. Socialism is the challenge of social abilities to create.

    Sillik, Socialism is any of various secular theories or systems of social organization in which a perceived collective or empowered centralized government (by threat, duress or fear of capital consequences) owns all individuals as chattel as well as all property, religion, means of producing and distributing goods and services while planing and controlling the economy. Neither nature’s law or inherent justice is/are available to socialism or any application thereof. Socialism is very versatile in its applications; by example, socialism is implemented through: communism, fascism, Wokeism, progressivism, and other degenerative executions of social idiosyncratic regression. When any philosophy, ideology or moral/ethical doctrinal belief of life and death is extrapolated, it is a tenet of religion. When secular philosophies and religious tenets merge, there is a theocracy. Theocratic socialism surely challenges all that is good while, socialism’s social abilities can only create chaos, death, pain, poverty, slavery and all else that is destructive to the Noble being “man”. It is through recognition and realization of individual sovereignty, inalienable rights and liberty through nature’s law that the noble sentient being may become all that he can be. The mental disorder that is socialism is demonically antithetical to such.

    No Mike, Norwalk Socialism is a clearly defined unmistakable, independent verifiable human effort of the one who has taken the reigns of social fairness, justice and calls himself the Socialist. I, Fredrick William Sillik, take full responsibility for the introduction and implementation of the dimensional civilizing defining quality with no variant at all, called Socialism. Socialism is the challenge of social abilities to create.

    Sillik, you keep saying the well established century old definition (legal, societal, etc., etc., etc.) and applications of socialism is incorrect. THEN, you state that socialism "is a clearly defined unmistakable, independent verifiable human effort of the one who has taken the reigns of social fairness, justice"  OKAY? Please give us that clear definition. What is it? ? ? Do NOT give us more circle rhetoric, non sequitur platitudes and empty emotional word salad. The traditionally well established and accepted definition that I gave explains why/how Hitler's NAZIs were socialists, Stalin's communists were socialists, the Progressive / Woke are socialists, etc.
