The Tyranny of Merit
Meritocracy began as a remedy, and its earliest proponents aimed to ensure mobility across societal hierarchies if not equality. Unfortunately, we are now in a world where privilege just exacerbates the disadvantages of those less fortunate. Education is no longer an answer, and efficiency is the discourse as opposed to what is morally right or wrong. In a polarised world, this is an important conversation to have. Great narratives, well articulated.
