For Context: I’m Chinese American, and I do not feel “ashamed” for my heritage, neither do I feel “ashamed” for being a US Citizen.
The CCP is not my fault. I do not feel any shame of saying I’m from China.
Similarly, the trump admin is not my fault, I voted Harris. I do not feel any shame for being American.
So what is the thought process of people feeling shame/guilt?
Why is it not our fault? Shouldn’t we be responsible for our society? If you’re not responsible for your Society then what incentive is there to change it? We should feel guilty. America’s only the way it is now because we all failed.
