How it's used

Originating from the visual image of a scale where one side is larger than the other, this term carries a strong sense of accusation. It is almost exclusively used in informal settings to call out someone for unfair treatment or favoritism. It functions as an adjective but is frequently used as a predicate in sentences to criticize behavior.
