Why are wokes suddenly parroting the word "equity" everywhere lately?

[ClownBrew]

First time I've ever heard this term apart from bankers about homes and mortgages. What possessed them to start screwing with it and turning it into one of their orwellian code words now?

They got all the equality they'd been pissing and moaning about, and it wasn't good enough.

Definition of equity​

1a: justice according to natural law or right
specifically : freedom from bias or favoritism

This is the definition they're using when they say it.

Because Progressives/WokeFags/Democrats ruin the meaning of words and then move onto a new one when normies start to call them out on it.

It means same outcome for everyone. Have fun.

Because they don't want equality, most everyone is fine with equality and have been for a long time, it's the status quo now. A big part of equity is achieving what they perceive as justice, which means whites (and asians?) must be punished for their race, and the successful aside from the elite shitbags must be punished for their success.

There's already a punishment for the successful, it's called taxes.

But yeah, NPC/Borg software update sounds about right.

Because Woke is essentially just a left wing form of racism.

A Woke person no longer believes black people and white people are actually equal, that blacks can't succeed in a level playing field when competing against whites, so what do you do? You now rig society like a carnival game so that blacks can succeed due to unfair advantages, hence equity.

It's crazy how racist and regressive it is, says who blacks and whites aren't actually equal? How does the "anti-racist" side now preach basically that very idea?

They're setting the legal standard that would allow BLM to come to your house and take it under color of law. Not only would the police (if they exist) not doing anything, they'd actively prosecute you if you so much as get in BLM's path.

Unironic Marxism. From each, according to his ability. To each, according to his need.

As George Washington University’s Milken Institute School of Public Health explains, recognizing the difference between equality and equity is important in just about every sphere of life: public health, politics, education, racial justice, and more. If each public school in a certain county receives 150 new laptops, that’s technically equal. But it doesn’t factor in that some of those schools might be located in high-income districts where most of the students already have their own laptops. Instead, officials should allocate the devices according to which schools have the greatest need for them—that way, they can minimize the chance that dozens of laptops will end up gathering dust at one school, while another doesn't have enough to go around.

To summarize, equality is about dividing resources in matching amounts, and equity focuses more on dividing resources proportionally to achieve a fair outcome for those involved.

Equality = even distribution of resources and welfare.

Equity = give more gibs to some people from underprivileged groups, and less to others.

It's crazy how a movement that started less than 8 years ago is close to essentially taking control of the entire country.

BLM is a cult that worships black people as their god, when they say "black lives matter" they mean black lives are the ONLY lives that matter or at least matter way, way more than everyone else's.

I don't hate black people but I'm not gonna get on my knees and worship them the way BLM literally wants people to worship black lives.

It sounds close enough to "equality" that most people will support it but allows them to push their agenda,
