“Equitable” is actually a denial of human worth, and a proclamation that those in authority have the sole right to divide and decide the rights of others — even the right to live.
To the people who claim that there is a “greater justice”: if this justice can be apportioned by the dictates of the rich and powerful; how can you claim there is any justice at all?
Nothing sets the “Cornithacan” attitude apart more than their lack of empathy for others. The local Socialist party took to the College Town streets; urging the release of criminals to protect against COVID-19 in prisons; while being quietly unconcerned with the mounting death toll in a nursing home only a few miles away.
Give them a question of Doctrine, and they can parse righteousness to a screaming frenzy: but any question of compassion or human dignity is beside the point.
This is the present state of Cornithaca County — and the future everywhere?
