      “So you are a (rule) bender! You traitor, I devoted my life to you!”

      (attacks the blood bender since that’s a great idea)

      It’s like saying “I want everyone to be equal” and saying both men and women should be given a 10% pay raise to account for the gender pay gap.

      Sure, you raised women’s wages to cover the gap… but now the gap remains because you also increased men’s by the same amount.

        That’s false. If you want to make everyone equal, you close the pay gap.

        To me, egalitarianism is making sure neither group is treated unfarly, so they should both receive the same pay for the same work, but also the same punishment for the same crime, etc.
