freedom vs equality
    #7792846 - 12/23/07 03:01 PM (16 years, 1 month ago)

political correctness is killing the awesomeness of freedom. can equality between people really be more important than our freedom? can freedom really be so much more important than the individual who uses it?

Political Correctness has nothing to do with equality! Its just a scam to make the more equal ones feel less guilty about the less equal ones, by making the less equal ones seem more equal in certain situations, for limited amounts of time.

First, define what it means to be "Free" or "Equal".

I'm not trying to be a smart ass, but it's the sketchy definitions of both that cause a lot of confusion in discussions like this.

For example, Free could mean free to make choices, free from restrictions, free to commit actions, etc.

Equal could mean, well, millions of things. Equal in the respect of created equal, or having equal opportunities, or being possessed of the same intrinsic value?
