Time to course correct
Incompetence becomes rife when there is no accountability for consequential failures. Mix that with the replacement of meritocracy with an overabundance of DEI woke nonsense, and you end up with a civilizational ending recipe. No order, low competence, and high corruption.
Let us not go to our graves earlier than expected. Let us not hasten towards our own demise. We cannot overindulge with unworkable ideas. It is time to course correct. Most of us have blundered into this mess unconsciously, but we must get out of it now consciously.
