Resist Kakistocracy and Embrace Meritocracy

Throughout the world, the multigenerational view held by many perceptive minds is that it never takes long to see through the deceptive charm, feeble idealism, and flickering halo of telegenic kakistocratic leaders.

At the helm of all kakistocracies is an unnerving and cringeworthy leadership by the least principled, least qualified, and least competent individuals. A privileged and pretentious elite bent on driving its own self-focused agenda! No wonder expectation of performance from kakistocrats has always been and will always be the dorkiest-sounding oxymoron.

In the sickening world of kakistocracy, sciolism transcends expertise, picking fights transcends ideological diversity, populism and opportunism transcend rationality and performance, a cult of loyalty transcends service delivery, indolence transcends impassioned productivity, perfunctory attention to detail transcends a detail-centric culture, organised chaos transcends stability, opportunistic extravagance transcends considered frugality, favouritism and a cockeyed view of intolerance-driven patriotism transcend objectivity and tolerance, treachery and conformance transcends trust and free speech, moral vacuity transcends moral fortitude, an outrageous sense of entitlement transcends the spirit of self-sacrifice, and the dominance of self-praise and a shrinking culture of accountability transcend constructive criticism and openness.

Each of the 10 beautiful young women had supporters...
