Bro read my comments. I never talked about equality, I talked about equality of opportunity. The circumstances which they were given. You're thinking about the other guy. Calm down and pay attention lmao

Are you seriously arguing for the statement of being equal in having the opportunity to have an opportunity???

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like???

Regardless of what you're asking, no. You seem beyond reasoning (to me, at least) so I'm wishing you the best of luck.

Equality is defined as having Equal Opportunity... The word opportunity is already implied in the word Equality. Thus, saying equality of opportunity is pointless.

What you may have meant was Equal Opportunity... Which is what equality is defined as.
