Can no longer drag and drop contacts in Apple Contacts in macOS.

Apple Contacts continue to be outdated and eating my contacts. Also, I can no longer drag and drop a contact from one list to another to attempt to fix all the issues. Why is Apple so screwed up?

I also have duplicate folders and duplicate contacts... sometimes five of the same contacts. I can't figure out which group is the master and which is duplicated.

Why do I have so many duplicate contacts?

Why can't we manage out contacts on our own like we used to be able to do before iCloud was mandatory (no more wired syncing at home so Apple can't have our private data like all our contacts)????
