Silent Majority
Nixon himself was not called the silent majority he was calling the average non protesting american the silent majority.
The Silent Majority was a term used by President Nixon to describe the moderate Americans who did not participate in public protests during the 1960s and 1970s. It referred to those who supported traditional values and government policies but did not actively voice their opinions.
Student activism was related to the silent majority due to the conflict between the more conservative views held by the silent majority and the radical ideas being championed by student activists. The vocal and visible nature of student protests challenged the status quo and prompted conservative backlash from the silent majority who felt their values were being threatened. This tension between the two groups contributed to heightened social and political divisions during the era of student activism.
