irrelevant; i know i merely need social justice, not social mercy.
Don't be silly. Of course being accountable for everything you do is relevant. How can it not be relevant? So is understanding the difference between justice and mercy. Justice is served when the accountable party is held accountable for his actions. Mercy is seeing it in its most favorable light. Together, all three, accountability, justice and mercy, act to establish order and harmony in a people.
Socialism is morally relative, as such there can be no such thing as social justice, it really means social preferences. As for social mercy? There is no such thing. There is no distinction in socialism between good and evil, no morality or any other kind of value, save pleasure. It proceeds in almost all its manifestations from the assumption that the basic principles guiding the life of an individual and of mankind in general do not go beyond the satisfaction of material needs or primitive instincts. So there can be no mercy or justice in socialism.
