@vgr Really enjoying @breaking_smart, but noticed in the latest issue the mention of “Woke Thought Police” and “canceling everyone”. I’m really interested in this, and curious what’s going on with this idea, that there’s a crisis of some kind, taking root. 1/2
What it actually appears to be doing in institution after institution is create an unaccountable new class of apparatchiks. Very little of this power struggle is visible in public, but it is certainly playing out.

How are some people so clued in and concerned, when it is not visible in public? And what sort of institutions? How do we know this is a pervasive problem, rather than something that rubs some people the wrong way who then get vocal about it?

You mistake this for a high-visibility thing. This is 90% iceberg under water. The fact that the visible 10% is so raucous only underlines how big the invisible part is. I don't know where you work or what you've seen, but I've seen far more of this 90% than I care for.
