Meaning
This reads as a sharp, ironic complaint about how foolishness can seem rewarded or even admired. It can be taken to mean that the speaker feels surrounded by bad judgment and would like to hear how someone got so far by leaning into it, which lands in a meeting full of empty confidence or a public argument that keeps getting worse.
