You haven’t substantiated your argument that equality of opportunity doesn’t exist in any way, and you continue to advocate for people to focus on the unfairness of their circumstances, rather than what they can do about it. In life all you can do is play the cards your dealt, shaking your fist at the sky will get you exactly nowhere.

Okay pal, I'll have to stop this conversation here – because I literally advocated the exact opposite of that and it's clear that your views are set, you're not reading what I wrote, and you're unlikely to be convinced. All the best!




You advocate for everything at once. I’m not convinced you even know what your views are. You agreed that equality of opportunity is the only valid aspiration, and then post a wall of rambling text advocating for equality of outcomes. You said that personal responsibility is important, and then go on to advocate for personal victimhood, which aside from being a cancerous philosophy, is also the exact opposite. You haven’t conveyed a consistent line of thought throughout a single comment.
