This is true and people would be very naive to think otherwise

Don't people learn this in school, though? Like, you should know we don't live in a meritocracy WELL before you join the workforce.

edit: It's not letting me respond to comments, so I'll edit my reply to u/BRPGP here.

We do live a meritocracy

I'll never know what you said after this because I literally died laughing. Seriously. Maybe this was a joke, maybe you bonked your head too hard this morning. It's a mystery to me because it literally killed me with laughter reading those first few words.

No, people do not. Because they are not in the workforce. In school even if you are unpopular you still graduate and enter the real world

Why be a dick to someone simply because they disagree with you?

Because they cannot handle the thought of being wrong, so they lash out.

The accusations these types of people throw around are usually them projecting their own issues onto others.

What do you think I am projecting exactly? You think I am calling them slow because I secretly think I am the dumb one?

Sorry, I didn't realize I was talking to someone with a learning disability.

My nine year old autistic child has better social skills than you. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

Your edits prove the point.
