WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“Their qualification is a complete joke, and they don't deserve to be here with us.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Entitlement and Fairness in Qualification

Physical placement (like taking a seat at a table or meeting) signifies official standing; seeing someone bypass rigorous merit through trivial means provokes strong public resentment.
