Similar to the difference btwn democrat and democratic.
I know that very well, but the left is great at conflating the two and we’re awful at verbalizing the difference in any effective way.
But in my book the whole notion that everyone is “equal” is bogus and dangerous, and it’s a big reason we are where we are today.
The founders would have done us a big favor if they had left out the noble lie “we’re all created equal”. We are absolutely NOT created equal - that’s as self evident as people’s noses on their faces.
