American Classicism and the culture of entitlism

[RainbowUnicorn]

i notice various items in the news showing people in upper class situations exploiting their social class power.
The current trend referring to young millenials as being "entitled" for seeking to expect equality & human rights seems odd and somewhat possibly mellevoulent propoganda.


Surely in a society that Globally define themselves as equality based democracy should have a ballanced disposition toward abuse of class power by people in positions of social & fiscal power ?

why do we not seem to see any news articles about this in the media ?


There is the obviouse mercenary like subjectivity of upper class people having sexual affairs which is hardly news worthy in my opinion as it is a majority of society that engage in sexual affairs outside their current pre-defined monogomous relationship.

is there a type of social psychosis in play here ?

attempting to pre-define the nature of the conversation by subjectifying sexual promiscuity as a form of upper class equality ?

example for consideration, is it normal to expect upper class people to be given the rights of others like being pushed out of ques and given legal leniancy for social injustice ?
(ie bad behaviour in social situations where common assault and general social disorder would be normally championed as common decency?)

thoughts ? expereinces ? observations ?

For a variety of reasons, the public has probably always savored scandals involving noble ruling dignitaries, politicians, priesthood, and just the general range of VIPs. They just didn't have anything more reliable than gossip for it until tabloid journalism in all its various forms came along. Watching TMZ or whatever may enable fans to relate to their favorite idols and not so favorite celebrities as being goofed-up like any human. Or that they're approachable -- i.e., giving groupies like Johnny and Jane hope that supermodel Rusalka or bad-boy Udolf could single them out for 15 minutes of receptacle / plug treatment at the back of a tour bus.

I've seen millennials called "entitled", but not expressly for "seeking to expect equality & human rights". Could you provide an example of this "propaganda"?
After all, there no lack of media coverage unless you can show this is actually a trend.
