For example, a person may commit a crime and be punished for it, like faking a document, and if he didn't get away with it he was only caught because the system was stronger than him, thus, proving that Thrasymachus is right.

Others may commit crimes and not be punished accordingly, or depending on what they did not even be considered criminals in the society which they live.

E.g. a company killing all life in a river due to an oil spill, the owners of the company will not be treated the same way that a bank robber is treated, even though killing and destroying is worse than stealing paper.

Can you prove that what we call justice is not simply the advantage of the stronger?

Unconditional Belief entails knowing that what people do, they are always right. In Conversations with God by Neale Donald Walsch, it's mentioned that justice is what people do, not what is done to them.
