... alias: the self-inflation of Kulturmarx, as seen via The New York Pravda:
(assuming that:
a) the analyses which led to numerical data1 were correct & complete, and
b) these numerical data were accurately transformed into the shown curves
1 i.e. number-of-usages per basic-time-unit (running week?/month?/year?)
)
This below (approach + result) is impressive:
(though it's a pretty crude measure of zeitgeist, of course)

Mystery item No. 1
Noticeable: The main types of curves:
The presented "cases" are (roughly) grouped by "semantic clusters". Sorting alphabetically would be helpful, sorting by curve-type pretty insightful.
Many other "cases" would be interesting, too ; e.g. phallogocentri(sm|c), intersectionality, SJW, ... (or, for that matter, woke/wokeness/wokism).
Komrade!

Seen on reddit, and VERY BIG pic here.
Mystery item No. 1Noticeable: The main types of curves:
- barely/never heard of, and then: BOINGGG!
- very slowly rising, and suddenly: BOINGGG!
- since ever present, roughly constant, and then: BOINGGG!
- BOINGGG! in the 80s, and smoldering since then
- since ever present, with several irregular spikes
- [seldom] continously rising (roughly linear, or slightly exponential)
- continously (and near linearly) declining (and that towards zero).
