you can’t give rights to one demographic and deny to another because you think the other is ‘icky’.
Literally nobody said this. My whole point is that equality isn’t achieved by “applying the same rules equally” (as the person I responded to said) to people who aren’t on an equal playing field.
You don’t solve inequality by giving both those who have less and those who have more the same amount. That just maintains the status quo.
edit: Y’all really need to learn about substantive equality.

the misogyny, the barely-disguised racism, the western chauvinism, the excessive hostility and pedantry, and did i mention the misogyny? holy shit there’s so much misogyny
