Equality is the process.

Equity is the outcome.

Modern Americans use equity and equality interchangeably, but these words are not the same. I was just talking with a progressive friend of mine today about this. I don't mind DEI minus the E. Equity is unachievable. It's a pipe dream. The funny part is that the E is the only part of DEI that means what it means, at least as it pertains to progressive theory. Equity comes straight out of Marxist ideology and concerns itself primarily with the outcome of results. There are far too many variables in humanity to EVER get that result. We have taller people and shorter people, and better-looking people and uglier people and fatter people and skinnier people, and lazier people and ambitious people. You will NEVER end up with the same result. I can't take anyone seriously who advocates for Equity.

Diversity and Inclusion as we understand them, are perfectly fine concepts. HOWEVER, they don't mean what you think they do as I was saying earlier. I can explain why they don't mean what you think, but most people don't really concern themselves with that type of information.
