Iustitia is a sculpture that began to be used in the Renaissance and has since symbolized justice, which is why it can be seen in courthouses and tribunals. It is inspired by the Roman goddess of justice and is commonly depicted with a blindfold over her eyes, symbolizing that she is not influenced by appearance, social status, wealth, race or any other external factor that could sway judgment. <\/span> <\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"background-color: var(--base-2); color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-size: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-size ); font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">The blindfold indicates that justice must be blind to prejudice, judging solely on objective facts. <\/span><span style=\"background-color: var(--base-2); color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-size: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-size ); font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">In addition to the blindfold, the goddess Iustitia often holds a <\/span><strong style=\"background-color: var(--base-2); color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-size: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-size );\">scale<\/strong><span style=\"background-color: var(--base-2); color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-size: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-size ); font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\"> in one hand, symbolizing the need to carefully weigh and balance evidence<\/span><span style=\"background-color: var(--base-2); color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-size: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-size ); font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That is the ideal, but it often differs from reality, as double standards are common. This is very common in psychology of groups and factions, because the human brain has a distorting bias in situations of conflict.  Below are 3 recent examples that will make this very clear: Russia\/Ukraine, Israel\/Palestine and Catalonia\/Spain. <\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: center;\"><strong>RUSSIA\/UKRAINE<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first is the war between Russia and Ukraine. Both countries and the pro-Russians in Eastern Donets and Luhansk have committed atrocities since the Donbas war began in 2014, launching missiles at homes or non-military buildings, such as schools, hospitals or markets, killing innocent civilians, torturing, etc. If anyone does not believe this because their country&#8217;s media has only reported on the abuses of the opposing side, they can verify it on Wikipedia, Amnesty International&#8217;s website, etc.  <\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both Russia and the pro-Russians in Donbas, on the one hand, and Ukraine and the West, on the other, cry foul when these abuses are committed by the enemy and speak of war crimes that should be brought before the International Court of Justice in The Hague.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, they remain silent when their own side commits them, supporting it more or less unconditionally, including the cruelest and most criminal among them, such as the Wagner Group and Kadyrov on the Russian side, and the Azov Regiment (largely composed of neo-Nazis and fascists) on the Ukrainian side. Even the media on both sides, including Western media, report (or misinform) in a very asymmetrical manner. <\/p><p>When there is a conflict in which both sides violate the human rights of innocents, <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">it is not like a football match where one must quickly choose a team<\/span> to defend unconditionally. On the contrary, what should be defended are the innocent victims on both sides, and one should take a stand against the abusers in both groups. <\/p><div> <\/div><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: center;\"><strong>ISRAEL\/PALESTINE<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another example is the atrocities committed by the governments of Israel and Palestine against innocents on the other side. Both adopt a victim mentality regarding the abuses suffered by their enemy, but justify those they commit, even against children and other innocents. <\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And the same goes for Western governments and individuals who side with the Israeli government, as well as ultra-leftists and Muslims who support Hamas.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: center;\"><strong>CATALONIA\/SPAIN<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The last example is that of separatists and Spanish nationalists in Catalonia, a topic I know very well because I live in this country (according to the former) or region (according to the latter). Well, Catalan nationalists have repeatedly complained, crying foul, about the grievances committed by Spain against Catalonia, such as fiscal plundering (Catalonia has for years paid much more in taxes to Spain than the compensation it receives, with part of its money going to other regions) or insufficient infrastructure investment. <\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also about the cut to the Statute of Autonomy (a kind of regional constitution) approved by the majority of Catalans, the trampling of their right to decide their own future, or the police charges against innocent voters in the independence referendum not authorized by the Spanish State.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They are right! However, when you mention the grievances they commit, not only do they not condemn them, but they even justify them. These include the unilateral declaration of independence with less than 50% social support (with economic damage and social tension), infrastructure cuts, or the blocking of an airport and train stations. Or the assault on someone for carrying the Spanish flag, graffiti on the house of an individual who displayed said flag, or the marginalization of an innocent child in school because their parents requested that the law requiring some subjects to be taught in Spanish be applied.   <\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In response, they go off on a tangent, giving absurd excuses like Spain being an oppressive state. But is that poor child the &#8220;oppressive state&#8221;? Or why should a poor passenger suffer if they can\u2019t catch their train home because of what the government has done? The same thing happens with Spanish nationalists, but in reverse. In reality, they are the same dogs, but with different collars.    <\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I can tell you it used to overwhelm me. Now I take it easy, as from observation and scientific verification, I have come to realize that the human brain is designed for this, at least in many people, especially gregarious and herd-minded ones.  <span style=\"background-color: var(--base-2); color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-size: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-size );\">But this can be highly harmful, because if there is impunity or laxity with certain abuses, it creates the perfect environment for them to perpetuate.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><em><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/institutodelbienestar.com\/en\/live-without-harming\/publications\/do-no-harm-be-open-and-avoid-harmful-gregariousness\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read LIVE WITHOUT HARMING: Avoid harmful gregariousness<\/a><\/em><\/span><\/p><div style=\"text-align: left;\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/institutodelbienestar.com\/en\/live-without-harming\/publications\/do-not-follow-the-herd-to-cause-harm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>HOW TO LIVE WITHOUT HARMING?
