Yeah the OP is doing a poor job of communicating what this is supposed to mean, something I’m actually noticing about their posting general actually. This isn’t to say that appointments stopped all together, it’s basically saying that there became two different tiers in government work. Political appointments are still around of course in terms of like you said ambassadors and secretaries and what not, but the more day-to-day aspects of government like the mailman are no longer appointed on political grounds. It’s basically what project 2025 is trying to reverse.

Agreed. I appreciate the dedication @Don_Dickle@lemmy.world, but you don’t have to simply grab reddit threads. It ends up feeling a bit… off.
