Very true.

If you haven't already you should read Vonnegut's "Harrison Bergeron", which begins:

"THE YEAR WAS 2081, and everybody was finally equal. They weren't only equal

before God and the law. They were equal every which way. Nobody was smarter

than anybody else. Nobody was better looking than anybody else. Nobody was

stronger or quicker than anybody else. All this equality was due to the

211th, 212th, and 213 th Amendments to the Constitution, and to the unceasing

vigilance of agents of the United States Handicapper General."

47 pounds of birdshot padlocked to his neck.

That was an absolute classic.

A DEI dream.
