Good straw man here. It looks like you think that meritocracy is some kind of moral theory of what is just. It's not. It's an approach to selecting people for the task. And it works. Universities are mostly meritocratic. Or at least should be. Personally, I hear about meritocracy not from people who want more just society for all, but from people who hate the weak and want more just society for themselves. "The Weak" are entitled to their opinion about their entitlement, and could pressure system to get what they want. But meritocracy works. Modern civilization is built on it.
