Trying, it is not necessarily a march towards more Torah values. It is a march towards extremism put forth by some with particular views that were never mainstrem in Judaism in previous doros. In its wake, have been left many with no parnasa or training to function in a job, who are in desperate financial straits.
Torah values were always to see that my fellow yidden had enough money to live on. Hatorah chasa al mamonam shel yisroel. Shmuel was going to tell people not to buy haddasim meshulashim if they did not lower their prices. Yaakov worked very hard with the sheep for 20 years.
The system that one looks for a spouse via a resume was never a Torah value. That singles should sit home and cry, waiting for a phone call from a shadchan was never a Torah value.
That businesses should have to resort to all kinds of shtick to function and stay alive was never a Torah value.
That many kids can’t read or write in either Hebrew or English after 12th grade was never a Torah value.
