If that's what you think equity looks like then I'd say any judgement of your character was likely spot on.

Whats wrong with my understanding of equallity? Please elaborate

Waste of time since your ability to read seems low. Equality β‰  equity

Ohh that wasnt a typo?

Ok then would u agree equallity = equal oppertunity And Equity = equall outcome

?

No. Reductively I'd say equity is a prerequisite for equal opportunity.

Well thats just illogical how would u define equity?

Equity comes out of the idea that people don't all have the same ability or means to do things. Equity is the leveling of the playing field so that no matter someone's level of intelligence, economic background, or any other efficiency/deficiency, everyone has the same opportunity to participate.

Equality gives staircases to everyone. In this case, not everyone can go up a floor. Equity builds ramps, lifts, or both. In this case everyone has an equal opportunity to go up a floor. You can't have equal opportunity without equity.

Say im really good at running up staircases should i not be rewarded for my staircase climbing prowess?

Should i be forces to stop climbing staircases to build an elevator for people who cant climb stairs?

Say im really good at climbing stairs but im lazy why would i bother climbing stairs to build an elevator for someone when i could simply wait till someone builds an elevator for me?

If u cant make it up a floor then thats unfortunate take it up with Charles darwin.
