Does anyone think it's reality? It's an unreachable ideal to be continuously worked towards.
Or against, depending on your cultural values.
It’s an unreachable ideal to be continuously worked towards.
No it isn't. It's a pretense that the class who controls the violent apparatus of the state is impartial. It's propaganda and nothing else.
It's an ideal in that people should be working towards taking control of the state apparatus and making it so. The class struggle will always make it impossible to reach, but it can always be pushed to be better.

People are ALREADY in control of the state apparatus. What we have is, by now, the very predictable result.
Well, beyond that the alternative is to abolish the state, which I'm not against, but the ideal would remain.
There is no such thing as "blind" justice. What they mean with "blind justice" isn't justice at all, but rather a blind application of and obedience to law - which liberalism have always (and utterly falsely) conflated with "justice."
