The problem is that the internet won't "get off" reality. It is no longer true that what happens on the internet mostly stays on the internet. If a bunch of tumblr people start denouncing you, you could get fired.

We saw that happen to a hackernews poster a few years ago.

College campuses are capitulating to these people's demands.

I think this movement will let off some steam and people will stop taking it seriously, but I don't think it is unfair to worry that they will take real positions of power in the future.
