What would life be if we all agreed?
Pretty boring.
You only need to look at humanity to realize the systemic inequality.
My neighbors have SUV's and 5000 square foot houses, and in many parts of the globe people live in mud huts and are lucky to have a donkey. They are born in poverty, suffer hunger, and often meet an early death. I would have thought the inequality of human beings was obvious. It would be nice if we treated each other as equals, but we don't do that either. Even in this nation we have a caste system- lawyers do not invite their garbage men to dinner, the wealthy don't mingle with the boys in the hood- and we get the justice we can pay for -since our bank accounts are unequal, so are we.

If you mean all humanity is equally deserving of compassion, I agree with you. But saying we are all equal, when we clearly are not, is not very compassionate (imo).
