“Equality” is a term that’s been repeatedly … gang-r@ped.

CONTEXT ONE: BOOLEAN ASSESSMENT OF CATEGORICAL MEMBERSHIP.

All players on the ice exist equally as “HOCKEY PLAYERS” bound by the same rules (membership). However, not all hockey players play hockey equally (qualitative assessment).

CONTEXT TWO: ISONOMY

State application of power will be applied to all by the same criteria (equality before the law)

CONNECTION BETWEEN THESE TWO CONTEXTS:

isonomy presumes that all who fall under the law exist, at the very minimum, as agents and thus, as agents, fall under the law.

“Created Equally” was a notion by Americans adopted from their French influencers… the French ruin everything.

Definitions:

… Isonomy: “equality before the law”

… nomocracy: “rule of law”
