I'm sorry, can you explain what the link with "woke" is in this video?

disagreeing with something is part of discourse? booing is a practice as old as the practice of giving lectures in front of an audience. there's nothing 'newfangled' or 'woke' or 'scary' about booing something.

No, booing is not what is wrong. I might myself boo at someone trying to glorify an AI-led future.

What is wrong is reporting the new student politics without the appropriate derision for the simplistic, biased views of students, and not condemning their simplistic, biased professors who inculcate only those biased views, who no longer teach students to respect and investigate other views, who instead teach them to violently deny people the right to air other views on campus.

People used to treat angry-student politics and the views of the noisiest, angriest students with the correct amount of derision.

That stopped ( as seen here ).

And, worse, social media has let those angry students drive debate, which has led to the rise of the hateful woke.

And, still worse, students are no longer being educated to be critical but to accept one side and hate the other.
