Mmm. When I say "cut equally" I mean we are all same in terms of humanity. No one is better than others.
Really? You really think that way? Then why your communication (argument, if I may) skills is lower than Waar's? Why some students that achieved 90% in their finals and others achieved less?
We're not talking about effort here, because while everyone has the basic skills, every individual is unique and their strength and weaknesses varies. There is no way denying this, because, realistically and the most common examples, you will find some who are good with essays and some who are good with numbers.
So you believe that we are better than those who are poor or mentally incapacitated? Because I don't think so. We are all born humans and we die human. Do you understand what i meant by "cut equally" now? If I didn't stress it out earlier than that's my fault.
If you're talking about how a human in essence is no different than other human, yes, you are right. But each human has different strengths and weakness, and you don't seem to acknowledge that.
I have a better life than those who lives in Zimbabwe. I am more intelligent than those who are still in middle school. In essence, yes we're gonna die as human beings, but everyone's set of abilities is different.
I get where you're coming from, but we're (you were with Waar) discussing a different issue. It's entirely different concept.
It ties in exactly to the argument we had with Waar. Like nexus pointed out, Waar actually believes that he is better than us. Not just in debating. It's people who think like that gets to me the most because as I look at the people who's less fortunate than us be trampled on and looked down upon. That is low and if you honestly believe in that than you have my up most sympathy.

The idea that people are cut equally is retarded and quite hilariously naive.
People are not born with equal abilities, equal chances, or in equal situations. Any one of these things would make you unequal to another person.
You can make the argument that people should have equal opportunities, but that is an entirely different concept than people being cut equally.
The simple fact of the matter is, yes people are better than others. The idea that everyone is at the same level of importance is not only wrong, but creating a generation of entitled fucks the world has never seen before.
Stop being a retard.
What's naive is the fact that you believe that you are better than someone else. Who are you to say that statement? You are not God or a deity . I firmly believe that everyone is equal in terms of being human.
