Much of the inexorable change of permitted terms for long-held subjects is coming from university in-house pressure groups.

Not necessarily the elders and profs, but the newer generations of students and their ‘leaders’. The huge influx of students, usually on the more anti-everything cruise, in recent years has opened the door for the protestors to gain a captured audience. Those that object, get cancelled.

Then, because there is now a huge financial advantage in attracting even more susceptible minds, the faculties fall in line on the grounds of pseudo intellectual expansion. What a load of gobbledegook, it’s now about money so anything goes.
