> It's amazing how much this misses the point of the conversation on meritocracy - that critics of meritocracy do not have a problem with merit itself From what I've seen of the conversation on meritocracy, you could read through tweet after tweet after tweet (because let's get real, that's where the conversation is happening), without a critic once even acknowledging the idea that it's better to have do things better than to do them worse. It mostly gets lost in the noise of whether meritorious people "deserve" prestigious jobs that pay good money.
