A plumber asks if intellectuals conjuring increasing volumes of abstract categories in lieu of productive work is a collapse indicator, or just hilarious?
(1) Professor is from the Latin for “response,” so once personal responsibility is established as no longer a thing professors become bureaucrats with all the benefits thereunto appertaining.
(2) This is an example of the true rival (anti-)religion aka The Poz, which is Goldwaterism wrought absurdly large, and thus catnip for ConInc types. Woke itself is an abortive* (heh) attempt to restore the Civil Religion against it.
* - the cultural equivalent of putting the present-day Ford family in Henry’s original garage and asking them to build a car.
The way I arrived at a curiosity about this topic is seeing how many ‘Antiwoke’ Jewish intellectuals were so virulently against ‘identity poliltics’ (Bari Weiss comes to mind, although Eric Weinstein and others as well)...
And yet would engage in the exact same name-calling identitarian tactics as a BLM supporter upon conversations related to Judaism.
As you are so thoroughly elucidating, there is more to the Jewish identity than the intellectual class admits, and your work is excellently investigating this, thank you

If there were Jews in Wakanda, it follows that there would have been redlining too.
An excellent “addendum”.
