True equality does not exist. In the short story, “Harrison Bergeron,” the government supposedly made everyone “equal” in any situation possible on the year of 2081. “Nobody was stronger than anyone else.

Equality is, “ the state of being equal, especially in status, rights, and opportunities.” (“Oxford Languages and Google - English | Oxford Languages”).
