Government-enforced Equality of Outcomes Is Marxism

 Government-enforced Equality of Outcomes Is Marxism

Recently, Democratic vice presidential nominee Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) released an animated video explaining away the difference between “equality” and “equity.”

“Equality suggests, ‘Oh, everyone should get the same amount.’ The problem with that, not everybody’s starting out from the same place,” said Harris. “So if we’re all getting the same amount, but you started out back there, and I started out over here, we could get the same amount, but you’re still going to be that far back behind me.”

“It’s about giving people the resources and the support they need so that everyone can be on equal footing, and then compete on equal footing. Equitable treatment means we all end up at the same place,” said Harris.

While Harris doesn’t explicitly endorse “equity” — she never endorses anything in the video, for that matter — the California senator’s parting words, in which everyone ends “up in the same place,” prompted right-leaning accounts to blast her for sounding like a communist.

One critic said, “When the potential VP gets on here to announce she’s a Woke Marxist, I gotta say something,” tweeted Dave Rubin, who added that Americans should vote like the country depends on it.

“Sounds just like Karl Marx,” responded Congresswoman Liz Cheyney (R-WY). “A century of history has shown where that path leads. We all embrace equal opportunity, but government-enforced equality of outcomes is Marxism.”
