First, there doesn't seem to be one common definition. From some of what I've been reading I discovered that I'm an out and out racist. And to think I've spent a lifetime supporting racial equality via equal opportunity and the Civil Rights Act.

Some of what I'm reading says that equal opportunity isn't enough; there must be equity in outcomes. Sorry, I'm a scientist, yeah, natural science, but I know enough about social science to know that equitable outcomes are impossible until and unless every single input variable is equal. And you don't have to know that much about science to understand that never has and never will be the case. It defies physics, chemistry, and natural law. The only way to enforce equity of outcomes is through redistribution, to counter the laws of science and nature.
