This is funny because the left simultaneously hates meritocracy but slam it when it's problematic. Such intellectually dishonest people they are.

You can disagree with them that those biases exist, or that that is a way to accomplish a more perfect meritocracy, but you can't claim that they are motivated by a desire to make anything less of a meritocracy. You can only claim that they're going about it the wrong way and give really thoughtful and coherent reasons why you think that's the case.
I'm not agreeing with the grandfather comment, but there are "post-meritocracy" movements[0] in the world that fall more in line with the opinion that meritocracy as a concept is flawed.

Your very next sentence goes on to disprove that.
