0The Best Anime I've Seen in a While
A proper society will constantly strive for equality. There are those who clamor for men and women to always be considered equal. As a result, we raised the employment rate for women, we made specialized subway cars only for women. Sometimes, women will even argue over the order of names in a family register. The public opinion of people with disabilities has also changed. We’re now told that we should not use the term ‘disabled people’ when referring to them, so as not to discriminate. Nowadays, children are taught that all people are created equal.
But is that true? I have my doubts. If men and women have different abilities, then their roles should also differ. People with disabilities are still disabled, no matter what polite euphemisms you use. No matter how you try to avert your eyes, the meaning of the word does not change.
So, my answer would be, ‘No, we are not equal.’ To be human is to be unequal. Equality does not exist.
Long ago, in a bygone era, a great man said that heaven does not set one man above or below any other. However, he did not necessarily adhere to the idea that everyone is equal. Did you know that there is more to that famous passage? The rest goes like this: Everyone is equal when they are born, so I ask, why do we see differences in position or status? And it continues: Do you or do you not encourage learning to create a difference? So then, education creates an imbalance.
