Being better is a dumb statement when describing an individuals attributes

@The Watcher Is it? Who's to say that YOU are the best at *something*?
I need to verify from my phone to text in Athens
👀
Anyone have a link?
Being better is subjective, but it’s possible to criticize someone but usually I try not to feel superior since it can lead to ignorance and also often you’re opposers will often show you your faults unless it’s the left in which case it’s slander
To say you are "better" entails that you are objectively greater than them in all or most attributes @Fitzydog
I wouldn't rape
BUT
@The Watcher I have made no claims about myself
I'm not saying that either
I don't like the idea of someone being better then me
But I agree with that statement
There are people who are objectively more competent than you are at everything
Some people can DO things better than you
or even have "better" morals
Like I think competent is better then using better to define someone who’s “better”
Basically, I'm asking you "Do you believe in competence heirarchies, and acknowledge their importance?"
but its impossible for someone to be competent in all things
@The Watcher I said better than YOU
Nah bitch
That depends what u mean in what contest
I'm better
I have my pp cut
so im better

See what I mean? A speech.
This is all a disagreement of baseline philosophies
Competence hierarchies founded on merit aren’t bad but they also allow disproportionate amount of representation (a observation but I don’t take the left leaning stance on it since it leads into quotas or the whole thing with affirmative action)
If you are saying that I'm better at running a marathon than an Olympian then no
I'm not saying your position is wrong, but I disagree
This is the divide between left and right
Why cant I view dank memes anymore here?
Why wouldn’t we want competent people though who have merit to be in the position they are in?
