The rise of woke ideology in academia, coupled with the decline of classical education and critical thinking has encouraged students to abandon nuanced thinking. Consequently, universities produce more opinionated yet ill-informed students. While signs of "peak woke" are emerging in corporate and public spheres, the continued advance of wokeism risks severe backlash, potentially leading to further social division and erosion of fundamental American values.
Victor Davis Hanson is the Martin and Illie Anderson Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, a classicist, and military historian. He is the author of hundreds of articles, book reviews, and newspaper editorials on Greek, agrarian, and military history and essays on contemporary culture.
