When Merit-Based hiring is deemed racist, bridges fall down |
2018-03-31 |
[Mercer at WND] As individuals, we want the best doctors treating and operating on us, the best pilots flying the airplanes we board, the best engineers designing the bridges we cross, the best scientists inventing and bringing to market the medicines and potions we ingest. Yet the American Idiocracy is moving to equate merit-based institutions with institutionalized racism. Tucker Carlson, likely the only merit-based hiree at Fox News, recently divulged that a member of the Trump administration was overheard (by a thought-police plant) expressing a preference for merit-based recruits for his department. Egad, and what next! Google, a tool of the Idiocracy, appears to have scrubbed its search of this latest episode in "The Closing of the American Mind." However, it’s no secret that the education system already excludes the most naturally gifted, independent-minded individuals from fields in which they’d excel. Race preferences notwithstanding, requirements for social activism of the right kind, for volunteerism and worldviews of the left kind, for working exclusively toward the best grades: These are things girls do better than boys. In any event, when the best-person-for-the-job ethos gives way to racial and gender window dressing and to the enforcement of politically pleasing perspectives, things start to fall apart. |
