mediocracy

1) Rule by those who are of average or below average competence.
2) A society in which people with little (if any) talent and skill are dominant and highly influential.
3) A social or administrative system which is like an antithesis to a meritocracy.

2)"The success of Big Brother is indicative of our present society being a in a state of mediocracy."
