FD2 S5 Ep1 Two Wrongs Don't Make a Right
from Solid Blue Sister - My Turn to Talk Hosted by solidbluesister
People say "two wrongs don't make a right" to argue that retaliating with another bad action doesn't justify the initial offense, but they might say it while doing something wrong because they're using the phrase to deflect, justify their own perceived right to retaliate ("they had it coming"), or try to balance the scales of justice, even if their response is still wrong, highlighting the conflict between ideal morality and human impulse for revenge or perceived fairness.
