What you have to understand about Pete Hegseth copying and pasting war plans into Signal is that it almost certainly means he’s got classified documents on his personal UNSECURE devices. Signal isn't on a secure device...are our war plans on his personal devices? @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social

I'm no longer certain we can use universities as any yardstick here.
Perhaps we should look at Ortega's "The Revolt of the Masses." He seems to have witnessed an inverted society where the capable were demoted & the incapable took charge--leaving destruction as the limit of their imagination.
