Youse have got it all wrong! Plassy mozzed us with this meme

I'm almost too angry to type tonight. But honestly what do you expect from society these days after 30 years of positive reinforcement theory - people being told you can do no wrong, your opinion is all that matters, you deserve it because you're worth it, everybody gets a medal, there are no losers. When I was a kid I had great parents who always gave me opportunity, encouraged me, never abused me even when I failed, but was also told at times children are to be seen not heard, behave when you're told to, don't be rude. We grew up instinctively to toe the line when told, to respect authority but not be afraid of it. But not for the last few decades and people are surprised when selfishness rules? We sowed entitlement into general society some tome ago and now we bear its fruit.

Edit: Oh PS, I'm no fanboy of Dan Andrews either, quite the opposite actually, but I'm vaccinated and follow the lockdown rules when I'm subject to them (currently free), QR code every time I go somewhere and wear a mask in public. Probably about as much as I can do to help out just now. And yes I am hurt financially big time due to lockdowns. Self employed, wish I was a public servant getting work from home bonuses and annual pay rises during all this shit.
