You're asking man of them to reach beyond their abilities.

My wish - since we're doing wishes:
That the 20 coppers who reluctantly guard 5 noisy fash would all down tools for a simultaneous meal break.

(A major nearby incident might also divert them).

Great article on this issue in the culture wars, specifically to do with academia and critical theory: https://defector.com/humanists-have-done-nothing-wrong

The link to your observation? The great 'dumbing down', the 'problem these days' etc is... not being too generous with grades. It's not a fear of 'debate'. It's not 'evil establishment hates the west'.

It's a wilful ignorance, and/or an utter incapacity to engage with the substance of a matter. The people who claim critical theory etc etc, as being worthless nonsense, that it trains the youth to 'hate their country', are merely the 'intellectual' arm of the great dumbing down movement. Critical theory is one way to analyse and understand the world. Thinking for 5 seconds about the status of Irish people in Britain is another. Both are too much for this movement, whether the participants in it are 'clever' or just utterly stupid.

Those are excellent points.

Also, dislike =/= disagreement. No, I'm not saying that your latest work is unfunny because it or you offends me; I'm saying so because it's crap.
