I’ll bet my left nut that you don’t have a male USB-A to female USB-C adapter that can support fast charging. So you’ll still end up ordering one from Amazon - a local store is unlikely to carry one.

USB-A to USB-C is the current standard. I am convinced they include a USB-C to USB-C cable because most people don’t have those chargers, so they’ll be more likely to order one with their phone.

You said the quiet part out loud. “Equally benefitted” is another way to describe equity.

Providing them both with 10 hours of language classes will be equality but results won’t be equal.

Again, you’re just arguing for equity and against equality. Equality and equity are fundamentally incompatible, since achieving equity requires unequal treatment. Presumably your example ends with the Italian person getting more than 10 hours of lessons because of his nationality. You seriously need to acknowledge that you’re advocating for one person to receive better treatment because of their nationality, and consider the consequences of that being an acceptable practice. You’re trying to reverse over a century of human civilisation’s progress.

No, it would have added clarity because it would show that the kid on the right is prevented from going to the left side, which is a necessary assumption for the given metaphor to work.

However, that would make it obvious what the real problem and the solution is. Which would be detrimental to the political message the comic is trying to push, because then instead of giving assistance (putting up boards to move the tree), the obvious solution would be removing something (the literal and metaphorical barrier). The author clearly intended to show that providing assistance is justice, not removing barriers.

It’s a disingenuous comic, because equity and “justice”, while appearing differently in the comic, in practice would be exactly the same thing.

Besides, anyone portraying their position as “justice” is a massive red flag.

The OP comment did not criticize the comic for being too simple. He called it misleading. You’re both arguing with a strawman.

Someone disagreeing with something doesn’t mean they didn’t understand it. It’s a really poisonous mindset that hampers intellectual discourse and development.

Communism is a paradise where everyone gets along and nothing goes wrong. Anything else is not true communism. I just don’t get why that’s so hard to understand.

I don’t see a fence…

Maybe the real point of the comic is that the girl on the right is really stupid, so we should tilt the tree instead of having her lazy ass move the ladder.

You can’t criticize people for using the word handicapped after it has been pushed as the politically correct word for decades.

It’s still the mainstream politically correct word in the English speaking West. Using disabled can land you in hot water in a professional or political environment.

It’s about making sure you can both access a guitar and lessons to learn.

We are already trying to do that. It’s called equality. Also known as equality of opportunity, where everyone has access to acquire a guitar and guitar lessons. How does “justice” augment this?
