So you're just demanding the baseline for a normal society.

So why is OP presenting that as something negative, or unworthy of supporting?

Capitalists often use the idea that everyone is equal under the law to obfuscate theor class domination. A genuine society where everyone is equal under the law in theory and practice is worth fighting for, but in the present moment it is all smoke and mirrors.

I think that very, very few people these days believe in this equality (i.e. believe that it exists in practice), "libs" or otherwise.

That's one of those things that's hard to quantify. I've seen people use that frame of argument before, but not in the last few years.
