ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Quotaism

Quotaism is a way of giving extra opportunities or advantages to some people based on factors like gender, race, or social status. It's like when a teacher says that there must be a certain number of girls and boys on a team, even though some boys may be better at the sport than some girls. Quotaism tries to make things fairer by making sure that everyone has a chance, not just the people who are already ahead. It's kind of like sharing your toys with your friends so that nobody feels left out. But some people think that quotaism is not fair because it doesn't always focus on individual skills and can create negative competition between different groups of people.
