Do you know someone who doesn't like pizza?
This seems like a self-contradiction to me. If the wrong is in the service of rightness, if the ends truly do justify the means, then the "wrong" isn't wrong at all; it's right. And the "unethical" isn't unethical at all, it's ethical. The only reason people would think they're doing something "wrong" for the sake of rightness is because aren't very intelligent and fail to think fully contextually. They just think in terms of certain types of actions being categorically wrong or right. So the answer is, yes.
Being unjust in the quest for justice is a bit different, it seems. I think you can do something unjust for the sake of justness. If you kill an innocent person for the greater good, for example (and by the way, this is just an example--I'm not sure I'm actually a utilitarian), then it remains unjust for the killed individual. And it might break my heart to do an injustice for the sake of justice. I'm not even sure if that's possible, on second thought.. not because the just ends causes the means to be just, but because the unjust means causes the ends to be unjust. Not because utilitarianism is illegitimate, but because "justice" is the wrong word here. It's hard to think of an example where an injustice could serve a greater justice--that would be really reaching/an unlikely scenario--but it's easy to think of a case where an injustice could serve the greater good, utilitarianistically speaking. But something being in service to the greater good doesn't necessarily imply being an instance of justice, per se, imo. Justice is more about balance, or, as Rachel Dawes put it, harmony.

Is there a culture war happening now and is it effecting American politics? 🤔

I saw the the 1st 2 episodes of the new Animaniacs. It's not terrible but it seems a little reigned in. It's toned down for sure. No goodfeathers stereotype Italians, no Chicken Boo prob deemed trans phobic. (Been there) 😊

Georgia is in a close run off. Why are dems having such a hard time beating the evil, racist Republicans? Or is the culture war playing a part in it? Nevertheless it looks like biden's presidency is like his dick, impotent & non functional 🤣

Do you ever wear not matching socks? What is your opinion about people who wear non-matching socks sometimes?
No, I'm neurotic about that. Absolutely never. That's why I try to have all my socks be exactly the same. But currently I have two different kinds, not counting like 20 unmatched Dr. Scholl's-type socks. I don't think anything bad about people who wear unmatched socks. I think I used to. In a way it's something I would totally do... or maybe was.

How do you sense that another person and yourself resonate with each other? Or not? Is it in a second? Does it take days? Is it due to communication whatever time has passed?
IRL it's probably a few seconds (minimum, at least). Online it's gotta be like 6 to a dozen posts I guess, idk. I guess it's mostly communication IRL and in videos? If you include body language, intonation, etc. in communication? It's also possibly appearance, clothes, voice, aura, etc. And online in text it's almost entirely communication. When I say "communication" I don't necessarily mean between me and them--usually it's a one-way thing, I just see their public content..
