you're out if you still think about 'equality', it's all about 'equity' these days, 'equality' is no longer good enough.

Maybe that's your opinion, but you don't speak for everyone.
it's sarcasm, sadly these days the main media and our school districts are all about 'equity', teachers are all re-trained to use equity instead of equality right now.
The subtle difference you’re pointing out is significant. Equality under the law is moral and ethical. Forced equality of outcomes is immoral and unethical, and is just collectivist Marxism rebranded.
