This attempt to run every discussion through an immense boolean plinko machine before we somehow collectively decide who gets to talk about what and when is an absurdity that's become the single most important mediator for a select batch of people highly educated in it to their detriment. If you want to command the floor you better be good, lucky, convincing and correct. Fairness has nothing to do with it. Lived experience as the ultimate codifier of correctness makes zero sense. It's unquantifiable and unqualifiable. Angels dancing on the head of a pin. I wish you luck. You're going to need it because this is the public sphere. There's no way you're going to succeed in whatever this is by claiming everyone else shouldn't be here.
