The process of valuing, expressing, and promoting love, respect, harmony, trust, admiration, generosity, peace, and equity upon other people in any society, regardless of their race, ethnicity, color, sex, national origin, height, weight, age, handicap level, marital status, occupation, etc. This can also be known as social harmony between diverse groups of people.
According to the way my good friends treated me, social justice has been served.

A perversion of justice which is inherently unjust. Not justice.
Justice is justice. Social Justice is therfore necessarily a subversion of justice (usually to suit political goals (regressive left) or personal goals (virtue signaling)).

A competition where white people bully celebrities on Twitter to prove to one another that they are not racist (formally a movement to promote freedom, equality, and community for people who have traditionally been disadvantaged in society).
It does not serve social justice to allow this pop singer to live down something they tweeted 12 years ago that now sounds problematic out of context.
I’ve been on Twitter all day, cancelling celebrities in the name of social justice.

The (typically online) practice of preaching for equality for people of all religions, races, genders, and sexual orientations. When done right, this can be a fantastic thing. Unfortunately, social justice tends to be done wrong, giving things like the gender equality movement and the gay rights movement a bad name.
Good social justice: Equality for everyone regardless of your background!

Word used mainly by American teenagers and those without a college education to describe the frustration they feel at their own failures in life.
Most of these individuals don't feel the need to get an official definition of this word to see if they believe in equality of opportunity for example, rather they will go to tumblr or find an extreme feminist vlog and confuse social justice with other disturbed individuals who abuse the concept for their own personal gain.
