Yes exactly. This critical mass of humanities kids, educated by professors from earlier episodes, are out there writing online and transmitting the framework. How causal this is of content-free acting-out is a separate question.

Now, if you reduce wokeness to fan culture and treat the argument of academic trickle-down as a monocausal claim, sure, it’s a completely different animal. But no one here’s making that argument.

A proposed 3-part causation of Woke: - Academic assumptions about social structure (power analysis, etc.) - Fan culture social dynamics among adherents. - Protestant cultural assumptions about perfectibility of society and subordination of everything to a cause.

This in part speaks to why this is an Anglosphere obsession that isn’t replicated elsewhere, covers why certain ideas provide the substance of Woke and not others, and identifies the means by which Woke propagates and why it tends to be associated with certain tribal groups.
