Common meaning:
The qualities of a person or thing that gives pleasure and exalts the human spirit.
Hidden meaning of the Equity religion:
A false Western construct that must be eliminated.
Discussion:
The Equityists believe that there is no humanity based on a common biology and the idea of beauty is only constructed by societal groups. Since the dominant groups have defined the current idea of beauty, the concept is flawed and must be eliminated.
It is true that different cultural groups may have some small differences in what they regard as beautiful, but humans generally agree with each other on what beauty is. The Equityist idea that the beauty of a sunset is only the result of a group preference is ridiculous.
Part of the problem that Equity believers have with beauty is its capability to break down barriers between people. If people from different groups start to find common ground, that is bad for the spread of the religion. A society where people start viewing people from other groups as like themselves and deserving of respect, must be stopped.
We have a choice. Do we want to live in societies that value beauty and people or do we want to live in ones that spread ugliness and distrust for others?
