That's just humans.
My mom tells me to "stop worrying about the sky falling, worry about yourself first" in response to every time I criticize any regime in the world
Monarchy was abandoned. Now we have a lot of little kings and queens.
Oh fun fact: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_emperor_syndrome
My older brother was gonna be a "little emperor" but then my mom gave birth to me in violation of the One Child Policy... so now we have a beef... kinda feels like those Chinese TV Dramas about Emperors and their sons fighting to become the heir...
My mom constantly tell about some cousin that made millions on a business trip abroad and be like: "why aren't you like them"
Criticism against the system is dismissed, any issues you face is a character flaw, depression doesn't exist, "just be better"
Like I doubt my parents care about ethics... hypothetically I could be in the mafia and make billions selling illegal drugs and she'd be "proud" as long as I don't get caught. Or some extremely corrupt politician.
The takeaway I got from my parents is that: "Money = Good"
