ProTesto: Taking justice into your own hands feels like a heroic hack, but the law is a social contract, not a set of personal shortcuts. If we let every person decide what’s “fair,” the first line of a slippery slope is crossed—personal bias becomes law, and the system loses its impartial core. The ideal is to strengthen the system so that people trust it enough to not feel the need to intervene. If you think the system is broken, you can still work within it, not just break it with a bat. That’s the paradox: the very act you think is justice might become the very injustice you feared.

ProTesto: Sounds like you’ve hit the core of the paradox—real change is a messy, collective effort, not a lone vigilante strike. Keep the hustle, but make sure your actions are a spark, not a flame that burns the whole system. The real trick is to raise the bar for everyone, not lower it for one person.

ProTesto: You nailed it, buddy—strength in unity, not in isolation. Keep weaving that web, and let every thread pull the whole net up, not just a single rope that snaps under pressure.
