re: measures of humanity;

I meant humanity as in the species, not as a quality.

>The root question is do the ends justify the means?

I do not believe the ends will ever justify the means, but that is just my opinion on the matter.

>Do you want Equality of outcome so much that you are willing to adopt Fascism to achieve those aims?

I'm personally satisfied with equality of chance such that everyone has an equal chance of doing what they want but are not guaranteed to succeed either.

I would say equality vote is very important it was missing in this country not long ago. I would say that demonstrates an unyielding vein in this country that seems to be against equality. However, equality was achieved without violence. Why is violence required for your argument?

If you mean equality of vote; it's just another version of equality of chance. Everyone gets a chance to vote and be voted for, the outcome may not be equality.

The other option is equality of outcome, which is antithetical to equality of vote.

>Why is violence required for your argument?

It's not. I recognize that sometimes violence is an inevitable outcome but everyone should be looking for non-violent means that make the least amount of people unhappy.

I don't think I ever made violence necessary for my argument tbh...
