What are three transgressions of equality in anthem?

1. The existence of the Council of Eugenics: This council is responsible for deciding who is fit to reproduce and who is not. This creates a clear division between those who are considered "worthy" and those who are not.

2. The forced labor of the lower caste citizens: The citizens of Anthem are divided into different castes, with the lower castes being forced to do the most menial and dangerous jobs. This creates a clear hierarchy of power and privilege.

3. The lack of individuality: In Anthem, all citizens are given the same name and are expected to conform to the same set of rules and beliefs. This lack of individuality stifles creativity and self-expression and makes it difficult for citizens to develop their own unique identities.
