Now it's been 17 summers since I've seen my mother

But every night I see her smile inside my dreams

OK, sure, but some social changes should be campaigned against and some shouldn't. Racism, for instance, is insupportable and should never have existed, whereas counternarratives on gender and culture and capitalism are certainly possible.

So, like, everything in your avatar but in a way that won't get your rear end beat or keep you accountable

Hmn what a loving head scratcher

Pretty much,. The entire Asian concept of "face" is pretty much this.

In Japan, the hikikomori/NEET issue with their young populace stems a lot out of this: their life experiences don't match what they were promised and their 'outside' doesn't match their 'inside' on a socially acceptable level.
