No, because there are plenty of so-called "experts" out there who are clearly either cleverly-disguised morons or poorly-disguised shills. What we are seeing now is what is called "mob rule." The same thing happened during the French Revolution - decisions were made because there were large groups of people going around shouting about how angry they were and demanding whatever they wanted right that minute. The difference - and it is a sad difference - is that in the French Revolution, these groups were literal mobs who posed an actual mortal threat to those in power, and who could and did kill those people in power if they were not given what they wanted. Today, these mobs are virtual, and the only thing they can do if they don't get what they want is continue virtually shouting. But corporations, institutions, and the government nonetheless fall all over themselves to give them whatever they want.

Well, this is all true to an extent. Here’s the even bigger difference. The impoverished people in France were literally dying of starvation so they did what they thought they had to do to make significant societal changes and help feed their families.

The government AND corporations are kowtowing to the woke mobs for no other reason than to save their own skin. Nothin else. Not out of any deep feeling of commonality or purpose
