Sure thing, I don't like heated conversations either.

To explain it succinctly, I've become wary of a certain group of people attempting to use subtle language choices to slip in their controversial ideas without being noticed. Equity sounds very much like equality, and therefore people are more likely to sign up for it without understanding the difference. It's a weasel word.

That's interesting. Personally, I like the term equity specifically because it is not equality, which has a problematic history and doesn't actually tend to make sense in terms of actual policy.

Bridging the gap between our perspectives would take more time and effort than I'm willing to commit, but I do appreciate being able to converse like this without descending into a heated argument, so thanks for that.
