What disturbs this balance is only people trying to control the world rather than letting things follow a natural flow. But (and this might be a lazy tautology), that too is self-balancing in a sense, as a community which cannot hold itself together will split in two or destroy itself.
If something requires constant effort, it’s a sign that you’re trying forcing something into an unnatural state. After reaching this unnatural state, you have a complex problem with many factors, which is why I argue “Avoid getting in the state in the first place, or just let the thing collapse”.
In any case, I think we’re trying to solve the wrong problem here. If somebody hasn’t broken the law, I don’t want to brainstorm how we can punish them and get public opinion on our side in hating them. On the other hand, if somebody is disliked by everyone, then you can argue their innocence all that you want, peoples feelings are unlikely to change by logical argument
