Some elected right-wing officials reject equality as a governing value.

Evidence

But I think Albertans might have been disturbed to learn that members of their government were less in favor of equality among people than were members of the opposition. After all, equality is one of the principal values of democracy. Furthermore, the Tory respondents did not see inequality as the source of problems to the same extent that the Liberals did. Instead, they believed that problems were more often caused because “‘certain groups” did not stay “in their place” and that these groups “‘should be kept in their place.” … In short, the Conservative respondents believed significantly more, not in equality, but in social dominance. — Bob Altemeyer, The Authoritarian Specter, 3388
