In 18th Century France this was a useful idea as the ruling class had become essentially lazy parasites. Napoleonic France was more efficient; officers in the army were promoted on merit rather than bloodlines etc.

18th century France had a revolt *by* the ruling class, not against it; the problem there was that the King empowered the bureaucrats at the expense of the nobles whom he considered rivals - the bureaucrats didn't need the King, the nobles did.

Napoleon takes the powerful forces that were unleashed and wrecking the country and expends them by turning them outward.

The US needs egalitarianism because it is diverse. But the present situation is a weird one where the SJW left have created an inegalitarian system of racial, sexual and gender privilege, the best person is a trans gay black woman, the worst is a straight white man.

Given enough time, the present SJW movement will break the USA because it will break the egalitarian ideals the USA was founded on (the idea that a person's race doesn't matter, only their personal choices).

A diverse country where race is made very prominent is a civil war in the making. It's been shown many times.

Egalitarianism is more just a legal principle that a law has to apply to everyone the same way, leftists just flipped it and claim because a law isn't being applied to all races in a proportional way that means it's not actually being applied equally.

That's exactly what Hal is objecting to; you want "diversity" to work you'd better be Rhodesia or old South Africa or present day Singapore. Populations have different levels of ability to respond to incentives so different types of precautions against disorder are needed.

Imagine a population that loses motor coordination and judgement particularly quickly with alcohol - DUI laws are intended to prevent disaster and that theoretical population should be subject to lower BAC limits to qualify as DUI.
