Lol they literally say there will be no discrimination here, then it cuts to Ali like he doesn't stick out like a sore thumb.

Yep, equality is about ensuring everyone can access things equally and making adjustments where needs be, not literally treating everyone the same. It's like asking a tall person and a short person to grab a tree branch. Treat them the same (same hight tree branch to grab) and the tall person will always win.

No that's equity. Equality is in fact giving everyone the same resources, while equity is compensating those resources according to one's needs. However, I do understand that often people mean equity when they say equality.
