I’m unconvinced that the rhetoric of “emotional safety” among leftists is actually indicative of lower adventurousness. Seems more like a political tactic. I’m also unsure whether fewer startups = people are less adventurous. But thanks for clarifying, that’s helpful!
I think there is probably a general cluster that “adventurousness” sits within that also includes “rebelliousness,” “novelty-seeking,” etc.

It’s hard to pin facets of that cluster directly to measurables, but what I find interesting about the “emotional safety” movement is that it seems to have flipped youth rebellion on its head; the young are policing the offensive behavior of their elders

Isn't policing the behavior of your elders more ambitious than merely getting away with breaking their rules?

So would your model predict that "openness to experience" (the Big Five personality trait) is in decline in America?

I don't know if I understand how personality measurements work well enough to fit them into my model. I think of the "adventurousness" cluster as less a personality thing and more a behavior thing, driven more by incentives (inc rapid social feedback loops) than population traits
