I’ve been watching people in countries that only got widespread internet access after the mid-2010s become materialistic at a rapid pace.Even rural people in places like East Timor, Laos, and Myanmar openly long for incomes on the level of New York City or San Francisco and a lifestyle comparable to Norway.

>>221867452Before the 2010s, Filipinos generally had a modest baseline for their standard of living. Even those living in rural areas like the Visayas, Zamboanga, Bangsamoro, or Bicol likely didn't experience the intense levels of relative deprivation, entitlement, victim mentality, or social comparison that we see today.However, as smartphones opened a massive window to the wider world, what people expect from their peers, society, and the government has skyrocketed—both in quality and quantity. This shift is clearly visible across the region, whether you look at the antics of 'nepo kids' that triggered Gen Z protests in Nepal last year, or the way various social grievances continue to flood social media in Indonesia.
