The former tend to be shame-based cultures: &amp;quot;I can&amp;#x27;t succeed, and this is because I am personally a failure.&amp;quot;  The latter tends to be an anger-based culture: &amp;quot;I can&amp;#x27;t succeed, and this is because the government &amp;#x2F; corporations &amp;#x2F; landlords &amp;#x2F; George Soros fucked me over.&amp;quot;&lt;p&gt;Elsewhere in the world, this same generation also represents itself as ISIS and revolutionaries in Syria, cartels and gangs in Mexico &amp;amp; central America, and pirates in Somalia.  As a developed nation, demographic realities reached America after they reached those countries.

In Korea that’s just not something people would do.&lt;p&gt;It’s not pride but it’s also not the best way to deal with reality.</text><parent_chain><item><author>Clewza313</author><text>&amp;gt; &lt;i&gt;Everyday I see a world where many in my generation have simply given up all hope for opportunity of a family, a house, a stable career and forced to confront an uncertain future in a world that is slowly boiling itself to death.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p&gt;South Korea and Japan are 10-20 years ahead of the same curve here.
