I have a degree.

The point I am making is not that people are unwilling to concede, I don't see much change in that, but that debate itself rarely happens.

It's far more common in my experience for someone to attempt to shut down debate with a label like racist or woke, or draw a connection to a political philosophy in an attempt to discredit, rather than actually try to give valid reasons for why I should adopt their position.

Back in University I found that to be far less common. Looking from the outside in it seems as if nowadays campuses have become much more reactionary.
