Economic equality ?
Because it is the only to secure a true individual meritocracy with no restraint on the human potential
other than that inequality "being so much better than others at something" would be rewarded respect, attention love etc…. inequality that the whole of commune benefits from
Go buy some jeans and feel like consumption gives you a genuine identity
because inequality is bad
Why is that?
because when one person is above another, they're further away from each other than they could come to be if they were on the same level
What we have now is a perception of inequality in an aspect, the economic aspect. Regardless of whether it is forced or unforced or natural and so on, what we have is a homogenization of people withing the sphere where the inequality occurs, as they can only perceive and strive in the monetary aspect, or at least the quest for aforementioned survival or success suppresses and dominates their daily lives, in yet another form of alienation.
The money-making, materialistic quasi-religious view of society leads to inequality in one thing, and the associated repression, while it stamps out and destroys the manifold beauties which a single human life can entail.
Like Oscar Wilde said about material obligations unraveling to reveal creative freedom, and here I agree with>>996799 with the caveat that the end goal for me wouldn't be a meritocracy, just freedom.
