i think overall people are feeling a little burned by trump's anti-filter and rampant conspiracy theories that have taken hold recently and as such are retreating to respect for status and authority. there is some good to come of it, but i do wonder if the baby is being thrown out with the bathwater. true experts can handily defeat nonsensical arguments in their fields and unusual viewpoints can enrich their thinking.
