Find what you hate and don't let it kill you.

Indeed, what you hate has much to teach you.
Ha’át’íísh baa naniná?
Azee’ Å,a’ish nanídį́į́h?
Táadoo ánít’iní.
What are you doing?
Are you taking any medications?
Don't do that.

"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers. - Socrates"

Pretty much covers most people born in the US since 1945.

There is something to be said for the liberal side though when there is still slavery, discrimination, ignorance, and facist political parties like theAmerican republican right whom doesn't care about the common people and inherited the toxic authority that has dominated empires in the later years. This elitism that divides a society and forces upon it's citizens less freedom than it promotes makes sure to keep them in line through the law, norms, environment, and culture.

Yes there are some "toxic entitlements" that are crazy, but most "toxic entitlements" are the result of societies "evil" showing its face. Yes, I do believe evil exists. It's in the hearts of men. And to say when men and women are given power peoples heads will roll.

Well it is a meme.  Corrupt youth, senile age.  Is society wrong and criminals right?  Or is society right and criminals wrong?  Isn't this a false choice?  But "structural" problems, what super powers do you possess to correct such things?  Can you be more just in your own life?  That is doable.  There is evil, and it will always be with us, in new forms (Alexa for example).
