I don’t know Haidt’s other work. I also don’t know the quoted folk you refer to. I would not care for those takes, I’m sure. Nevertheless, I don’t see here in this comment an engagement with the actual argument, which definitely does seem well-supported and does align with my own observations and those of many educators I know. I’m about as liberal and pro-feminist as they come, but I find it hard to ignore the changes that are happening to all of us because of the online world and how those changes are magnified in those who grew up in it entirely as opposed as the previous generations who had a former perspective to compare to.
