It’s coming Agnes. I’ve noticed that most newer cars are black, white or grey, and furniture ads show sofas etc… in shades of black and grey. Apparently, conformity is in. But not for me.
Some people will find something to complain about and cause disruption, even if they have to invent it. There are those who feel that complaining and chaos somehow validates them. It’s an attention getter.
tell me who gets to define “equal”? “equality”? “equalization”? you? Bill Gates? Joe Biden? Donald Trump? Justin Trudeau? WHO? CDC? Hollywood? Which country? Which rock star? Which news outlet? FOX? NBC? CBS?………. Who gets a say Agnes and who has to conform? Your complaints might not be Trout’s complaints. Your idea of equality may not be Trout’s idea. One woman’s/man’s “movement” might just be a pile of………. – that is why “paradise” does not exist and people identify with those who seem to “think” like them – the problem is when one person or group insists on forcing another person or group to conform to their idea of what is “right, justice, peaceful, standard of living”, WITHOUT their consent. Now you have those who are willing to “give up” their freedom to be supposedly “safe” and those who “refuse” to give up their ideas on what equality is about. reality at this point can suck – hopefully, someday when all the facts come out of who is actually telling the truth and who is actually lying, manipulating the facts, etc. more people will actually get it, but probably not. we all like to believe our way is the right way even IF we are wrong – it’s called deception of reality.
It’s part of Agnes’ youth and innocence that she doesn’t realize that people will always find ways to differentiate themselves from each other, no matter how much equality we are striving for (for a good example, check out the classic Twilight Zone episode, “Number 12 Looks Just Like You”).
It’s also obvious that she’s never watched the original Star Trek, or she’d be better schooled in the Vulcan concept of IDIC, “Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations.”
As for the possible application of her ideas, I don’t want her “old floppy nostrils” either!

Created equal does not mean created the same, as Madeleine L’Engle pointed out.

I guarantee someone will still find some excuse for treating someone else as their inferior.

nostril flaccidness is an issue that’s concerned me for quite some time now…

That is playing into the racism-sexism-xenophobia not correcting it.
