The Western world in comparison to the eastern world

I've wondered about this. They never seem to get ahead despite a high IQ. I read about people from China bragging about their government when in other countries. People from the Soviet union when away would mock and ridicule their vile government. Western people say the squeaking wheel gets the grease. In Japan they say the nail that sticks up gets hammerd back down. If you're wrongly accused in Japan, you're expected to take one for the team and accept it. There's something naturally collectivist there maybe.

cultural difference. asians often have more rigid societies and very judgemental so no one wants to get out of line.

we are more free so we can do more openly what we want.

but impatience is just shown in different forms

Do they? I've heard things that for instance a boss isn't really patient with their employees. 🤔

I don't think that is true at all.. people the world over are impatient

Asian cultures then to focus more on the community and the family than individual

Culture

Can you share some scenario/example to better understand the question?

I don't know what is West and East culturally anymore.

We're wealthy and materialistic and social media has given us ADHD

we tend to focus on material wealth and practicable issues over spiritual and such issues

Spoiled in the i want now idealogy.

It’s the American way

Social media and smart phones conditioned Americans for instant responses. Getting a notification gives you dopamine z

Westerners are easily distracted and loves comfort..

Throw a shiny object and promise them utopia and you see the end result
