These ‘university students’ are a direct product of the public (and often private)school system education they received. A System that supports compliance, don’t step out of line, do as you are told, that rewards one for that compliance and obeyance and so on and so forth. Unless they were a person that bucked the ‘System ’ (and these types didn’t last long or fell through the cracks), you learned to fall in line. That these young adults are like this is not surprising. In my experience they ‘couldn’t find their way out of a paper bag’ if they had to! They learned that ‘go along to get along’ mantra quite well.
There were key events in Eastern Europe for example, of which I have first hand recounts from people I know, when students were not influenced by "forces" outside of their own group (they were rising up against existing regimes- at first very underground, then gaining momentum). It can be said of course that they were subject to peer influence.
Historically maybe yes, but this crop of college age youth, from what I have observed, have been raised on their devices and it’s attendant technological propaganda. They have little to no ‘life skills’ and from my POV couldn’t find their way out of a paper bag. So I don’t see them as ‘very useful political tools’…’easily manipulated’ maybe but not too full of ‘vigor’.
I had that experience of both public and private school, was never subjected to corporal punishment, and was a real pain in the ass to my more authoritarian teachers. One of the teachers complained in the coffee-break lounge that I was smarter than the teachers (there was one teacher who ratted them out on this, and who said he told them, "He's not smarter than *me*.").
I *never* got good at navigating the mazes of academia, so maybe that's part of the issue. I suppose I should be grateful.

Yes, the educational system is one of compliance, obedience, and yet this has always been the case. My parents have recounted stories of physical punishment during their schooling years (sometimes severe) for even the slightest transgressions. And yet, there are examples in history of students rising up in revolt. Maybe the university students of today did not deem the situation dire enough to do so? Or are they so in a trance, abetted by technology? I am reflecting real time as I write.
They are “in a trance, abetted by technology”. This has furthered their ‘state of slumber’. I just don’t see these classes of university grads waking up anytime soon…they are the people Klaus Schwab & The WEF are targeting for the “they will have nothing and like it” way of living. They will graduate, heavily in debt, there will be few ‘jobs’ in their field, (or pay enough to sustain their life and pay off the debt), so being on the Government dole, all drugged up on technology with brain implants, they will be content and compliant.

"Historically university students have not been shy of rebellion, nor of inciting riots for change."
Yes, when influenced to do so. Students are very useful political tools, easily manipulated and full of the free time and vigor possessed by youth.

Of course, it worked out a bit better for Bob.
