how is that not an example of a meritocracy?

2019-12-23 06:53:38 UTC  

the best code is the code that is used

2019-12-23 06:53:40 UTC  

Let's start over. How do you define meritocracy

2019-12-23 06:54:04 UTC  

irregardless of the physical characteristics of the person who submitted the code

2019-12-23 06:54:23 UTC  

What code r you talking about

2019-12-23 06:55:01 UTC  

A meritocracy can be anything

2019-12-23 06:55:32 UTC  

any code, but I was talking about the code that gets submitted to Linux in this example, because not that long ago their was some big drama regarding meritocracy and the Linux Foundation

2019-12-23 06:56:14 UTC  

The physical characteristics dont matter

2019-12-23 06:56:19 UTC  

A lady wrote the "Post Meritocracy Manifesto"

2019-12-23 06:56:32 UTC  

let me find it

2019-12-23 06:56:39 UTC  

But there are a ton of other factors that do

2019-12-23 06:57:00 UTC  
2019-12-23 06:57:36 UTC  

of course the person's physical characteristics don't matter, that's why I'm asking how can the idea of a meritocracy in that instance be racist?

2019-12-23 06:58:31 UTC  

I hire software developers. Writing good tests can be more important or expressing your concepts to the group or writing good documtation or being a leader...

2019-12-23 06:59:21 UTC  

so you don't believe that one person can be better at something than another person?

2019-12-23 07:00:09 UTC  

Sure they can. But you can't completely base an economy.on.merit

2019-12-23 07:00:26 UTC  

but in the case of what code gets used

2019-12-23 07:00:35 UTC  

how is meritocracy not a real thing

2019-12-23 07:00:45 UTC  

the better piece of code is used, that's it

2019-12-23 07:01:05 UTC  

it has nothing to do with what color the person who submitted the code's skin is

2019-12-23 07:02:16 UTC  

I'm going to bed now. My comment was random and. Im too tired to follow up

2019-12-23 07:02:22 UTC  

great

2019-12-23 07:02:28 UTC  

glad you're in charge of hiring people

2019-12-23 07:04:13 UTC  

good night

2019-12-23 07:12:05 UTC  

broh

2019-12-23 07:13:23 UTC  

being a leftist is exactly like being a toddler who throws temper tantrums to get their way

2019-12-23 07:13:36 UTC  

Not all of them

2019-12-23 07:13:39 UTC  

But most of them

2019-12-23 07:13:47 UTC  

actually

2019-12-23 07:13:49 UTC  

nevermind

2019-12-23 07:13:56 UTC  

I was gonna say I had a leftist friend

2019-12-23 07:14:02 UTC  

but he's just a conservative in denial

2019-12-23 15:55:09 UTC  

Dam i missed a lot

2019-12-23 15:57:32 UTC  

My main point was that I believe that the feminists today are not following the goal of feminism, equality. They make it into a form of sexism

2019-12-23 16:20:20 UTC  

I'm all for gender equality

2019-12-23 16:20:39 UTC  

I'd punch a woman in the face as hard as I would a guy

2019-12-23 16:34:09 UTC  

Same

2019-12-23 18:40:15 UTC  

I'd restrain myself against a woman

2019-12-23 18:40:22 UTC  

Unless they have a gun

2019-12-23 18:40:24 UTC  

or a weapon

@Half Pint Can you provide some examples of how feminists aren't pursuing that?
