The rewards and punishments are spontaneous, and inevitable.

    The social justice warriors are merely about punishment, they are porcine in their demands, and they are pathetic in their morality. Poetic Justice Warriors are patient, they think long-term, they are peaceful, they don't need intimidation, and they are purposeful, they have ethical principles.

    The poetic justice warriors are also ubiquitous, the mind their own business, create value, generally avoid politics except "when reality beckons." They are underappreciated, don't seek the limelight, and make everything work. They went on strike in Atlas.

    Yes, people who like totalitarian governments. Cuba has been endorsed by certain Hollywood types for their universal health care. Castro has been feted by Democrats while he visited the US.

    The social justice stuff is ubiquitious, its everywhere, politically correct speech warriors, the Occupy movement, BLM, nearly all university campuses reek of the stuff. Nearly every college course that ends in Studies. The tripling of education administration jobs compared to actual teachings. Maybe that's why its so hard to see.

    "Politically, Cuba is frequently endorsed as an ideal."
    By whom? People who like totalitarian governments?

    I do not get the social justice stuff. The people who coordinate the Interfaith Hospitality Network and knit blankets for naming ceremonies?

    What's a poetic justice warrior? Someone who is confident in her abilities and wallows in sanctimonious schadenfreude. Those two don't go together. People getting stuff done aren't worried about political games.

    Reason, purpose, and pride are the weapons of a poetic justice warrior. Reality dispenses the justice.
