What matters I think are your tools.
The tools with which you discern right and wrong and evolve and change.
Any dumb 22 year old can be superficially ‘Woke’ in the presence of adequate peer pressure to think and believe the right things, but if it’s an unconsidered interest in equity than it isn’t worth very much, as it likely will bend to the whims of inevitable change in the cultural water line.
Thus someone that has stepped on the line of Problematic but understands where they went wrong and works to rewire those behaviors is infinitely more valuable than the kid that is always right simply because they know which responses get the right rewards.
Also I think this is how we end up with those bros that use feminism to get laid but are completely useless outside of a narrow band of the most basic feminist ideas.
