Spot on. Thank you for putting it so starkly. Progressives are not comfortable with meritocracy. The bedrock of what made America the land of opportunity to so many and still does. It’s why hundreds of thousands still fight to enter this country by any means possible. Is see critical race theory oriented statements include this term “ableism”, so off putting. What does that mean? Being able is bad?

The terms "bad" and "good" are meaningless without explanation, "bad for whom" and "good for whom"; "a dagger is good for one, who has it, and bad for on, who doesn't have it".

It is good if the people is able for one, who intended to be a leader of these people; it is bad if the folks are able for one, who intended to have these folks as subordinates.
