They always use that word, "equity", because "equality" leaves out "fairness". (This is according to social justice theory.)

Lol they made that up because "fairness" sounds good. Makes no sense at all of course.

The funny thing is, I got one of them to show me an essay on their ideology once.

And it literally said that to achieve "equity", the minority of a country must act in ways that disrupt the power of the majority and take that power for themselves.

So by their own theory, they would have to agree with us about defending white people in South Africa, defending women and lgbtq's in majority Muslim countries, defending the muslims being put in concentration camps in China, etc etc.

We all know they won't, but their own theory says they should.

It's a theory that calls for chaos in every country in the world, but they only apply it in capitalist countries.

Only Western countries being attacked like this is getting old. Bad news.

That's exactly right. Its primary goal is to point out groups of people perceived to have an advantage, rather than address the underlying root causes of the disenfranchised... you know stuff like culture, education, marriage, two-parent households, morals, etc.

"equity" means (literally) ownership, as in when you own a share of a company you own "equity" in it.

That's what websearchs returned when these people first started using the term, they've injected their own "social-capital" definition to say that the wealth of a person or group is entwined with who that group is and how they got it. Everything must be racialized and forced into a class struggle or you're literally satan

I'd rather they be honest about their intentions than lying and saying they are fighting to "equality." It makes it easier to get regular people to wake up to the nonsense because most people have been conditioned that "equality" is good and something that can be achieved when in reality is literally impossible just due to biology. When they're honest and say they're for "equity" normal people start understanding what's really going on which is why the commies don't use it very often.

Thats exactly why Antifa should be declared a terrorist organisation. Because they use fascists tactics to bring about a communist revolution.

"Equity" allows them to demand more than an equal share. With "equal" you can divide things objectively. With "equity" the goalposts can endlessly be moved to accomodate feelings.

They use equality because somehow it sounds less subjective... which is all their movement is. Spoiled children screaming for entitlements.
