I have personally never come across a political ideology that I consider to be properly self-consistent in regards to justice, I don’t think any society has a rational idea of what they want their justice system to do. Speaking generally, the right place a lot of importance on law and order, as well as individual liberty. Yet those ideals are in direct contention. The left is very concerned protecting marginalized groups from injustices, but the communities of marginalized groups tend to be the most heavily impacted by crime. Why not come to some agreement on what we want our justice system to do before trying to reform it? Because most theories for reform that I come across tend to either imagine that victims of crime aren’t important, or that the rights of the accused aren’t important.
