Imagine if Bukharin or Trotsky had instead won out over Stalin for Lenin’s mantle!
Do you think they would have kept alive communism’s traditions of social justice and egalitarianism before it was hijacked by Stalin’s totalitarianism?
No. Sad as it is, I believe Lenin’s goal was to destroy the country, and Stalin managed to reverse his doings and hold the state together. And I know little of Bukharin or Trotsky, I can’t imagine what they would’ve done if they were there instead of Stalin during ww2.

Foundation of modern justice.
It mustn’t be confused with uniformity, or "harmonisation". For as long as we all different, there are bound to be inequalities because of our widely varying range of talents. It also means that we can cover for one another, and trade with one another, and our society is very much better off than if we were all cloned worker bees in a hive competing for the same flower.

What conditions allowed egalitarianism to exist, and where did this occur?
This link describes some kinship oriented societies that were egalitarian, yet I am looking for examples of how cultural and spiritual egalitarianism may be related. If it does not exist what culture and religions is or have been closest to it?

how has the "rise of radical egalitarianism" influenced public attitudes about attractiveness?
Hint: Reread that story. Make sure to understand the meaning of title. This is the most important part of the article you are reading!
Good luck!

how has the "rise of radical egalitarianism" influenced public attitudes about attractiveness?
It hasn’t. The rule of social interaction is that the attractive will always be at higher rankings socially. It isn’t even culturally induced but simply through natural selection and evolution.

If it does, does that also mean, homosexuals are viewed as equal to a non homosexual? Also, if we’re judged equally on Religion, race, etc. Does that mean a diabolical satanist is as equal to a strong Christian of any church? Just curious! I hope nobody takes offense!
Egalitarianism essentially makes its case based on Galatians 3:28. In that verse Paul writes, “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one IN CHRIST JESUS.”
I don’t know of any homosexual or satanist who is IN CHRIST JESUS.

The Principal Elite of Participating Local Egalitarianism (P.E.O.P.L.E) is a social and political government that advocate equality for all people alike, but not without some changes; they outlawed literature, books and history that mention slavery, oppression, the Holocaust and revolutions; ethnic/national names and customs were banned from conversations and daily routines; holidays, whether religious, federal or national have been abolished; heritage, culture and ancestry were outlawed from public conversations and schools; and racial names have been forbidden to mention. Art was only about reality, theater and drama were solemn and serious, and poetry was more bland and boring.
The PEOPLE believe that all national/cultural/political differences lead only into prejudice, tribalism and disharmony within humankind.
Seems nice and distopian; slightly cliche, but that’s okay as long as you make the story itself unique. However, I would consider messing with the acronym a bit, as it doesn’t sound quite right to me. How about "Proletarian Enablers Of Peaceful Local Egalitarianism"? It has a bit more of a communist feel to it.

I heard that Stalin and Stalinism changed quite a lot of aspects of the early Bolsheviks
But what did he change in Egalitarianism, legal matters, art and literature?
He most surely did! Stalin was more focused on results than ideological "purity".Actually, in 1931, he made an attack on what he called "petty-bourgeois egalitarianism", demanding an increase on wage differentials and increases in pay of managers, engineers and officials.

Whoever gets it right first gets the Best Answer.
I’m bored…
no. even though all rights would be guaranteed to everyone regardless of social standing or race or gender there will never be peace. it’s an innate human instinct to fight over something.
