Bergeron is Vonnegut

2018-07-21 03:34:33 UTC  

So people walk around naked

2018-07-21 03:34:45 UTC  

Bergeron is the one where the government wants everyone equal and stupid.

2018-07-21 03:34:51 UTC  

I know orwell didnt write that

2018-07-21 03:35:18 UTC  

so they do stuff like tie weights to anyone athletic enough to move freely and put earphones that distrupt people trying to think.

2018-07-21 03:35:31 UTC  

Not stupid, thsy want everyone equal to societys lowest demnominator

2018-07-21 03:35:46 UTC  

So everyone is equally stipid, blind, weak.

2018-07-21 03:35:49 UTC  

They use Common Core?

2018-07-21 03:36:00 UTC  

😛

2018-07-21 03:36:06 UTC  

I mean, when you try and make everyone equal.

2018-07-21 03:36:14 UTC  

They use a system to pull down the succesful instead of uplifting the weak

2018-07-21 03:36:27 UTC  

It's much easier to destroy than to produce.

2018-07-21 03:36:31 UTC  

Its a bastardized version of equality we call equity

2018-07-21 03:36:45 UTC  

There's only one way to make people truly equal, and I don't want to do that

2018-07-21 03:36:50 UTC  

Yeah, and the scary part is that people seem to be taking it and running with it.

2018-07-21 03:37:09 UTC  

Nah, because even then not everyone is truly equal.

2018-07-21 03:37:27 UTC  

Somebody would be in a part of the world with a nicer climate or something.

2018-07-21 03:37:28 UTC  

No one would be able to tell, though

2018-07-21 03:37:29 UTC  

Peterson said that the idea of equality is subjective

2018-07-21 03:37:51 UTC  

*I'm talking about extinction here*

2018-07-21 03:38:02 UTC  

oh. lol. Yeah, that would work.

2018-07-21 03:38:31 UTC  

Yeah, there's atleast 3 different definitions of equality, and even then it's basically impossible to really apply in practice.

2018-07-21 03:38:48 UTC  

Equality is when one object is identical to another

2018-07-21 03:38:56 UTC  

Oh wait, you're not talking about programming

2018-07-21 03:39:08 UTC  

Nah, we're talking more in a social sense between people.

2018-07-21 03:39:51 UTC  

Like I said, very subjective

2018-07-21 03:40:11 UTC  

So the two forms of equality between people I've heard of so far are Equality of Opportunity and Equality of Outcome

2018-07-21 03:40:14 UTC  

What's the third?

2018-07-21 03:40:16 UTC  

Still, extinction is the only guaranteed equality

2018-07-21 03:40:27 UTC  

Equality of Ability?

2018-07-21 03:41:03 UTC  

that makes about as much sense as equality of dick length

2018-07-21 03:41:13 UTC  

I remember Haidt used several definitions of equality in his stuff.

2018-07-21 03:41:14 UTC  

chop chop

2018-07-21 03:41:27 UTC  

The one that I would tend towards personally is equality under the law.

2018-07-21 03:41:37 UTC  

But that's not really a philosophical position itself.

2018-07-21 03:41:43 UTC  

One could say that's equivalent to Equality of Opportunity

2018-07-21 03:41:54 UTC  

I mean its the same as opportunity id say

2018-07-21 03:42:07 UTC  

It's more applied, if anything.

2018-07-21 03:42:07 UTC  

one lonely boi in talk room 4

2018-07-21 03:42:09 UTC  

Well, not necessarily

2018-07-21 03:42:33 UTC  

It wouldn't necessarily be a perfect overlap with complete Equality of Opportunity
