However, this ambition is referred to as "aspiration", good ambition. This is as long as they are yes men. As soon as they get a backbone, like Max, they are booted out for "ambition".
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil.

The double-standard I see is calling a brother ambitious because he won't kowtow any longer. While the same brother was kowtowing, he wasn't ambitious.
While MR, JI, JS, TC, BM, NT, etc were in the LSM fellowship they were not considered to be ambitious. As soon as a politically incorrect stance was taken, these brothers were out of fellowship because they were
ambitious.
Same can be said for the current blendeds. They're not considered to be
ambitious. As soon as one of the blendeds does something politically incorrect, that blended brother(s) will be considered ambitious.
Generally speaking to say one is ambitious can have a negative or positive connotation. In the LRC code-speak, ambition is considered a negative word. Yes, aspiration can be a LRC code-speak for positive ambition.
