The alt right engages in cancel culture too, absolutely, nowadays though I find most of the restrictions on expression come from the alt left. I simply believe people should be treated equally regardless of things like race or gender; the solution to discrimination is to stop discriminating. |
The way you phrased, Curl, it seemed like you were defending equality. But were you actually defending it or you meant equity?
On the picture on the left, they are all being treated equally, but this doesn't help the one in need. On the right image, the three kids were not treated equally but they can do what they wanna do, they are happy. On the right image we have equality and on the equity. Â

Equity vs equality is an interesting topic. I think the two concepts are mutually exclusive: equity is same results (which necessitates different opportunity), while equality is same opportunity (which necessitates different results).
But you can use these principles in various different ways. So, while I typically strongly disagree with equity, it is usefull enough and makes sense to me to have a higher tax rate the higher your income is. Highering quotas though, that is vile and should be outlawed everywhere.
