Douglas Murray explains the heart of the Meritocracy debate and why the Left's goals are fundamentally flawed. From the 2023 National Review Institute Ideas ...
I do think the left is very close minded and restrictive.
To make out that the right never has or never will make any valid points is insane.
I’m just listening to ideas and views and absorbing information.
Just because the left doesn’t like this guy doesn’t mean I’m going to follow them into immediately disregarding everything he says as some heathen. I’m not going to hate everything this guy said just because my side says I should. It’s not a football game.
It’s a very strange argument you are making. That accurate information and good points shouldn’t have the credit they deserve because of other points. I’m very pro vaccines and Trump seems like an idiot but again that doesn’t mean he isn’t always wrong like the west makes out. He nailed the gas reliance Russia has on Europe.
I never hear the argument the other way “watch out the left believe in free education. Next thing you know you’ll be believing everyone should be paid the same and that borders don’t exist”. Instead they would be far more likely to argue the initial point they disagree with.

Did you reply to the wrong comment? You seem to be arguing against things I didn’t say
I’m sorry. He’s too far gone.
No. I meant to reply to you.
