You have to be honest about the damage both have done
Fall of Saigon, Fall of Baghdad, Fall of Kabul

Canon breaking (Klingons in Star Trek), Star Wars Legends vs New Timeline, Han shot first
over-saturation and low quality
DEI Checkboxes
Critics: Not MAGA hat wearing guys, but clearly felt the connection with Biden Administation and collapse of entertainment
Operating outside of this Tao, Traditional Morality
We all felt it too.

Freezing the account works

Inconsiderate, selfish

Enos 1:23" And there was nothing save it was exceeding harshness, preaching and prophesying of wars, and contentions, and destructions, and continually reminding them of death, and the duration of eternity, and the judgments and the power of God, and all these things--stirring them up continually to keep them in the fear of the Lord. I say there was nothing short of these things, and exceedingly great plainness of speech, would keep them from going down speedily to destruction
"For behold, king Benjamin was a holy man, and he did reign over his people in righteousness; and there were many holy men in the land, and they did speak the word of God with power and with authority; and they did use much sharpness because of the stiffneckedness of the people" WOM 1:17
Freud, Narcissim:
This extension of the libido theory—in my opinion, a legitimate one—receives reinforcement from a third quarter, namely, from our observations and views on the mental life of children and primitive peoples.
In the latter we find characteristics which, if they occurred singly, might be put down to megalomania: an over-estimation of the power of their wishes and mental acts, the ‘omnipotence of thoughts’, a belief in the thaumaturgic force of words, and a technique for dealing with the external world—‘magic’—which appears to be a logical application of these grandiose premises.
In the children of to-day, whose development is much more obscure to us, we expect to find an exactly analogous attitude towards the external world.
