These people are shallow and reactionary, with little depth and no staying power. Much the same as others like were in the past. The real world has no tolerance of it and will turn them out, the academic world can't as long as they're taking money from them. This generations can't do anything, can't fix anything and are banking on other peoples' acceptance of their values for any kind of power, they don't have shit on their own. It's something that's worth paying attention to long enough to get out of the way of it and that's it.
Let the lemmings do their death march, it's appropriate for what they really believe anyways.
