Maybe I'm seeing it too one-sidedly, but I have the feeling that the troublemakers, the non-conformists and the rebels are being celebrated a bit more at the moment. (Trump, Elon, RFK, Thiel, Balaji,...) I have the feeling that we are in a post-institutional phase. This has positive and negative effects. People are starting to question everything, which in my opinion is a good thing. On the whole, I am a friend of disruption/challenging the status quo and not a friend of the terms "settled science" or "the end of history" But I also see the danger that science and the "experts" will be fundamentally rejected and we will swing into the other extreme.

Is there a possible reading where actual dissent or subversive thinking is so quickly absorbed by the power structures that exist, it is transformed into a homeopathic does of its origin, then the name, freed of its power can be used describe its opposite. TLDR non of the above a revolutionaries. Old power new names.
