I'm reminded of a surprisingly profound exchange in the otherwise zany classic, "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World":
"Now take it easy, honey. These things happen, ya know."
"Now what kind of an attitude is that, 'these things happen?' They only happen because this whole country is just full of people who, when these things happen, they just say 'these things happen,' and that's why they happen! We gotta have control of what happens to us."
(I'm not saying you aren't taking action, or that you would be able to change this. Please don't take this as an accusation. I might have posted exactly the same thing as you, if I'd seen it earlier. I don't actually have a point. Maybe I just like imagining Ethel Merman responding to your comment.)
I think I know what you mean.
One thing I've noticed living in many countries, is that every culture has a different level of BS it is willing to put up with.
I guess that's the bright side.
The other side is that culture changes slooooooooooowly.
And yet society will continue to be dominated by theater rather then common sense.
That's just how the world is.
