Balance is a corrupt term in an unbalanced world 

“Balance is a corrupt term in an unbalanced world.”Jacqueline Rose

When the pendulum of justice is hard to one side, coming into balance is not justice. For to do this negates the exploitation and suffering of those who faced and lived through the injustice of the extreme of the pendulum. 

Allow one class to become extremely wealthy by extreme exploitation, extraction to extinction and colonisation, and we do not find justice in the centre. 

Allow one gender to dominate, and it is not balance that is needed. Restoration leans to the other gender leading for a period of time.

We find justice and balance by shifting to the side of the exploited and dominated, making reparations, seeking truth and reconciliation. Not permanently, but as the counterweight. It is only as the lessons are learned that we can reach balance.

This is the physics of a pendulum.
