My suspicion is it is rooted in the mental health epidemic prevalent in young men because they lack strong social connections because of social media.
It's the perception of a degree = success. That's a trap. Think about if you're in a small town, you're grandfather worked in a mine, raised a family, your dad worked in a mine raised a family and now you're working in a mine and you're deemed a failure, undesirable.
