When we’re young we are endowed with the knowledge of what is right and what is wrong. What we can or can’t do.
That is instilled by the social structures we find ourselves in, not by a profound understanding of whatever legal system we have been born into.
When people need to justify their behaviour purely by what has been written into law, it’s only because they are trying to justify their behaviour, and usually not because it benefits anyone other than themselves.
The world has been through more challenging times and emerged. There was just a common goal to work together and succeed and less whining.
Then again they didn’t have Facebook then.
