Honestly, if the writers do this right, the equalists could be a very good "grey" bad guy. I'm sure there are many instances of benders taking advantage of non-benders like the scene with the three thugs that Korra beats up. I'm thinking about it like in the final eragon book how they discus magic and non-magic users. "A man can work to get faster and stronger, study to sharpern his wit, but can do nothing if not given the gift of (bending) at birth." It really isn't fair when you think about it. Sokka, as much as we love him, was never anywhere close to Katara and the others in terms of fighting ability. These equalists should just be wanting to level the playing field of life for regular folk.
