I don't know that TikTok and other forms of social media aren't the driving force for this movement, and not the campuses themselves. Anecdotal evidence suggest it's social media. That I do take very seriously.

I think that's right. Insofar as this is a problem it is probably being driven more by Russian and other trolls on TikTok, Instagram, etc. Than by liberal professors on campus.

I think it's likely a combination of both social media and some influence from college campus / peer pressure. For the record, while TikTok has a ton of it, it's also extremely prevalent on Instagram. Even Linkendln has it's fair share which I don't think is a whole bunch of Gen Z's.

There's definitely something getting stirred up on TikTok, I've noticed, especially the last few days. Lots of angry bots in the comments and lots of RW media chasing down students asking if they would behead babies. It's horrible.
