  Nope, it isn't shallow but it is not the only reason for the societal upheaval of the last decade (nor did I state it was). Have you actually looked at what happens when critical theory-derived practice (or 'praxis' as it is usually called in the terminology around CT) is put in place in a field? Given that the intent is to deconstruct existing structures in preparation for 'a better future' it should no come as any surprise that that is just what it does. Polarised corporate media, 'Big Tech' with its poisonous algorithm-driven 'social' products and vacuous entertainment all play a role but the main difference between these and the CT-derived mayhem I described is that the latter is ideologically driven where the former are just in it for the money. If the media thought they could make more money by going full John Wayne and grandma and apple pie they would. Not so for those who are ideologically driven, here the destabilisation and deconstruction are actually the intended results.
