The difference between equality, justice and equity. - Lemmy.world

Doesn’t the first panel also have equal tools and assistance?
No. The system leaning in favor of one group is very much a type of assistance.
Wouldn’t then in the second panel still not be equal assistance?
No. “Except for the basics of the system itself” is implied.
I really don’t mean to be contrarian but I simply don’t understand how a leaning tree can be assistance in panel 1 but not in panel 2.
It is assistance in both, but the point is that "equal" assistance in an unequal world (the tree still leaning one way) doesn't actually provide justice, since those the tree is leaning towards still benefit more.
