I actually would prefer people see them as ideals rather than unchanging facts of the universe, because unchanging facts don't require you to fight to keep them like ideals do, and I'm tired of hearing diatribes about the world being just instead of people actually making it just.

The universe might not care, but we do. And that is the entire point indeed.

As far as I'm aware, most people who think the world is naturally just think that such justice comes slowly, and with wild swings away and towards justice happening in the mean time. So you still need to turn the ideal of justice into reality in the mean time either way.
