Here is my (completely unsupported) prediction...

People involved in "safe spaces" or passing out fliers against "rape culture" (not rape, that's a crime and a different subject), generally, on average, after college, don't enjoy happy long term rewarding relationships, successful careers nor make a lot money nor contributions to the world.

When I was in college in the early 90's I flirted briefly with the emerging "PC" movement, (many of the principals which I support in theory). I quickly distanced myself when I perceived the pervasive underlying negativity and unhappiness.

I wouldn't think so. Being actively involved in things in college seem to be one of the better indicators of success in those areas. I know many geeks who aren't especially successful in those areas and I don't think less of them because of it.
