but it’s never a reason (imo) to simply violate the law.

In your world how do unjust laws that benefit those who control the violence get changed?

[-] testfactor@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Ideally through the civic channels that exist to accomplish change. Run for office. Campaign for reform. Pass the BAR and join a firm that does pro-bono work fighting for important issues.

But if all that fails, there is certainly a point where the people need to rise up and overthrow an unjust government.

But what I'm arguing is never justified is violence against other citizens just because they benefit from the unjust system. If the system is unjust, fix the system, don't lash out at those who just benefit from it.
