Egpytian Grads Should Just, Like, Network More

From Al-Masry Al-Youm, the leading independent newspaper of Egypt:

Dozens of law school graduates protested on Saturday at the Supreme Court demanding equality with chancellors' and judges' sons who have been appointed to the State Council and prosecution service. They called for putting an end to the practice of inheriting judicial posts.
...
“I received my bachelor degree with a ‘very good’ grade. Although my colleague got a pass grade, he was appointed at the State Council for being the son of a chancellor at the council,” said Ahmed Abdel Rahman...."

You mean people actually protest nepotist systems that expose the ruse of the meritocracy?

In America, these people would be called whiners with a sense of entitlement. Instead of complaining about an unjust system that screws the unconnected, they would be told to network better, so that they could be connected, so that someone else (preferably someone docile) could be screwed. Either that or they should "hang a shingle."

But I guess protesting at the Supreme Court is what happens is such a vulgar place where people actually complain about social injustice and absent-minded leadership. Thank goodness we respect civil democracy here.
