Luvvy nonsense they all spout the right words but would happily trample over their own grandmother if they thought they were up for an award.

I don't see how you can have any meritocracy in a system where people use emotion to judge another's ability. Some will tell you Gone With the Wind is the Greatest movie ever made others will say it's Ali Gi in Da House. Whatever floats your boat.

Rather like our HOL colleague who hoped Bill Nighy would win a BAFTA. Not because of his performance - because I doubt that many people outside of the industry or media have actually watched all the movies in which the nominees appeared - but because he supports the Eagles.

Which proves Badger's point that there can be no meritocracy.

Political correctness is often about giving a help-up to a bunch of thicks. Just to make a quota, a gender-quota or otherwise. Helping the people who would otherwise not be well represented.

In Ireland we have quotas for Female University professorships and high political office.....not fair , but that's politics for ya.


However, Chinese US students getting accepted onto a prestigious MBA ? they are arguing ( correctly) that they are all being discriminated against cos they are all super intelligent.

Harvard etc do not want a class photo of 500 graduates and every one of them is Chinese-american.

so they are capping the genius kids and giving a leg-up to the thicks.

It's like excluding Messi from your squad cos you already have a few white men. And then including Benteke even though he bust his ankle last week.

Hey you’ve never called me a racist, why think it was aimed at anyone. It was a general comment about targeted attacks on right wing holers.
