And Trump surrounds himself with family members, media personalities, other grifters, and people with generational wealth.
- That's what "merit" means, just as it always has.

But a pernicious movement endangers this foundational principle, seeking to transform America’s promise of equal opportunity into a divisive pursuit of results preordained by irrelevant immutable characteristics, regardless of individual strengths, effort, or achievement.
Wholly ignores the fact of historical systemic prejudice that puts many people way behind the moment they're born, because of "irrelevant immutable characteristics".
- Its like the pinnacle of double speak, isn't it. The AI they are using must have scraped the fuck out of 1984.
- They've really doubled down on "evil is good and good is evil" (to paraphrase Isaiah 5:20).
  The efforts to correct for historical systemic prejudice and provide actual equal opportunity (which is a step towards the meritocracy they claim to want) is painted as being evil, whilst a return to the "equal outcome" (for the rich and white, regardless of skill or effort) is represented as good. They have deliberately gotten the two scenarios backwards in that EO.
  
  Your insight is impeccable. It cannot be pecced.

A bunch of rich folks with massive portfolios of inherited wealth telling the world that they need to rely on “merit” to come up in the world.
Pah-lease
- Brought to you by the most incompetent administration in the history of the United States, where "merit" (or utter lack thereof) is completely ignored over unquestioning loyalty

It's an Executive Order and has no legal precedent. A memory at best.
- It allows racial discrimination throughout red states. The government will not enforce the Civil Rights act on behalf of its people and that means their rights to able to vote are more than likely over.
  We are very slowly being squeezed into full blown riots and civil disobedience. That's when they call Martial Law and Civil War II: Drone Based Boogaloo begins.
  It's what the Heritage Foundation is itching for.
  
  Martial law is their end goal. They want to get people angry and upset enough that they march on DC is record numbers, so they can call in the national guard and the army and send ever single person who shows up to El Salvador.
  
  If they dont do it now they can't build the drones with their own tariffs in place.

Sec 3. Revoking Certain Presidential Actions. The following Presidential approvals of the regulations promulgated under 42 U.S.C. 2000d-1 are hereby revoked: (a) the Presidential approval of July 25, 1966, of the Department of Justice Title VI regulations (31 Fed. Reg. 10269), as applied to 28 C.F.R. 42.104(b)(2) in full; and (b) the Presidential approval of July 5, 1973, of the Department of Justice Title VI regulations (38 Fed. Reg. 17955, FR Doc. 73-13407), as applied to the words “or effect” in both places they appear in 28 C.F.R. 42.104(b)(3), and as applied to 28 C.F.R. 42.104(b)(6)(ii) and 28 C.F.R. 42.104(c)(2) in full.
If anyone wants to do the research, I think this is the part that tells us what got fucked.

  (b)(2)
  A recipient, in determining the type of disposition, services, financial aid, benefits, or facilities which will be provided under any such program, or the class of individuals to whom, or the situations in which, such will be provided under any such program, or the class of individuals to be afforded an opportunity to participate in any such program, may not, directly or through contractual or other arrangements, utilize criteria or methods of administration which have the effect of subjecting individuals to discrimination because of their race, color, or national origin, or have the effect of defeating or substantially impairing accomplishment of the objectives of the program as respects individuals of a particular race, color, or national origin.
  (b)(3)
  In determining the site or location of facilities, a recipient or applicant may not make selections with the purpose or effect of excluding individuals from, denying them the benefits of, or subjecting them to discrimination under any program to which this subpart applies, on the ground of race, color, or national origin; or with the purpose or effect of defeating or substantially impairing the accomplishment of the objectives of the Act or this subpart.
  (b)(6)(ii)
  Even in the absence of such prior discrimination, a recipient in administering a program may take affirmative action to overcome the effects of conditions which resulted in limiting participation by persons of a particular race, color, or national origin.
  (c)(2)
  In regard to Federal financial assistance which does not have providing employment as a primary objective, the provisions of paragraph (c)(1) of this section apply to the employment practices of the recipient if discrimination on the ground of race, color, or national origin in such employment practices tends, on the ground of race, color, or national origin, to exclude persons from participation in, to deny them the benefits of or to subject them to discrimination under the program receiving Federal financial assistance. In any such case, the provisions of paragraph (c)(1) of this section shall apply to the extent necessary to assure equality of opportunity to and nondiscriminatory treatment of beneficiaries.

Makes the world safer if you're rich and white. What did you expect?

Before, large companies with tons of lawyers need to prove they are not discriminate you.
After, individuals with no lawyers living pay check to pay check just have to accept lower pay.
