The Moldbuggian interpretation of the outward valorisation of nonconformity would be that the supposed nonconformity is but conformity to a different ideology

"College is where nonconformists go to conform to the prevailing standard of nonconformity."

Pretty sure I once saw that in a Unix fortune file, likely dating to the '80s.
