There is a manifesto that is literally titled the "The Post-Meritocracy Manifesto" which a lot of people unironically agreed with, at least when those were hot topics a few years ago.

So any attempt at pretending that there isn't an anti-meritocracy angle to this would be disingenuous to say the least.

That same person behind the manifesto is a primary figure in introducing CoC's to software projects btw.

I was going to say this sounds a lot like the conservative strawman that postmodernism means the total rejection of objective reality.

Then I read the post-meritocracy manifesto and wow some of those "our values" bullet points are facepalm worthy.
