> I think it’s hard to argue that the amount of justice is unchanged for all of human history

I agree.

It got worse.

The inequality between people was never so high in history! Hard fact.

Now some people "earn" more money while they breeze in and out then large amounts of people earn in their whole life.

Also now the slaves have to pay everything themself (like food, shelter, clothes, in some countries even education). Progress!

I just want to understand:

Are you saying that a black person born in South Carolina today has a worse life and with less justice than a black person born into slavery a few hundred years ago?

I don’t think slaves got university educations for free.

Do they have free university education in South Carolina?

And why only black people?

The implication was that we are worse off now because we have to pay for education, my point is that a black person now may have to pay for education but hundreds of years ago it would have been illegal for them to get any education. To be clear, I don’t mean to imply that we’ve solved all the world’s problems and everything is great, just that I think right does win over wrong over a long enough timespan.

I’m not sure what you mean by “only,” it was just an example.
