Lovely generalizations. I was searching for a /s tag after the first paragraph. Whats with the itch to find something wrong with one sub group or another all the time..
What are these 12/15 fastest growing professions anyway? I'd like to see a lot more detail about the claims being made and how the numbers to back them up. Saying "there's a lot of evidence" is not evidence.

Its very light on opinion, it starts with a fairly factual if perhaps slightly overgeneralized description of beliefs that are widespread as a lead in to a factual (in terms of types of claims, vs. opinion) description of the claims made in a particular book. (The degree to which those claims are substantiated would is a question that would take actually reading the book to evaluate.)
I've never been a fan of David Brooks, but I don't think the educational figures were made up whole-cloth. There's a little speculation trying to link education to skills to unemployment and disability. I can see how this isn't presenting a complete picture. But "gender-warfare clickbait"?
