They woke attack Merit the way they attack everything else: attacking the MEANING by claiming the social situation in which a thing occurs make that thing racist/sexist/etc.
Merit is "embedded" in "the ideology of whiteness" therefore all the standards of merit are racist.

Merit is about "can you do the work according to rigorous objective standards."
The woke attack the standards in the way I described in order to be able to remove them and replace them with their own woke standards.

Wokeness interprets everything through the lens of power and politics, so their standards of good, excellence, quality, and merit, all reduce to "does this advance and empower wokeness."
If yes....the thing has merit.
If no...the thing has no merit.

This is a paint by numbers set of moves the woke use, and we ought to stop letting them get away with it.
It's just a cheap paint by numbers deconstructive dialectic and we ough to reject it.
