It's full of literal shit (including the smell) and empty oxygen bottles due to too many tourists and everyday it gets worse.
It's like the highest open defecation place in the world.

though there are some initiatives to solve that: https://www.mensjournal.com/pursuits/mountaineering-report/t...
I agree that the current state of Everest is an embarrassment. But that doesn't change the fact that it's the tallest mountain in the world, and the efforts (both successful and failed) to be the first to summit were audacious and inspiring to many people. Stories like the one in the OP should not be suppressed just because decades later the mountain has turned into a pile of shit.
Management of Mt Everest falls under the Ministry of Culture, Tourism, and Civil Aviation, and each Minister lasts barely a year because Nepali politics is extremely unstable because Ministries are given to critical MPs who can make or break a government.
Expect more permits to be issued and way less support and cleaning especially because Nepal has some systemic economic issues right now.
It is at its worst when used to pile-on a speaker or post for uttering some perceived slight, or daring to suggest an unpopular idea or political view. It is bad for open discourse, even open society, and needs to stop.
