- bell-cot 2y agoFrom my PoV, both modern academia and their student demographic are blindly running around somewhere between https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moral_panic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moral_panic and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_Hysteria https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_Hysteria . And the Big Evil Threat they're facing is mostly the yawning gulf between the oh-so-virtuous morality they feel compelled to publicly perform, and the oh-so-privileged and self-serving ways in which they actually live. For some perspective, one might look to old Christian theologians, writing about the stark contrast between the humble teachings of Jesus and the jewel-encrusted lives of church leaders. Or to psychotherapists, writing about the behavioral issues of patients trying to live lives of blatant hypocrisy, without the "advantage" of sociopathic personalities.
