Watching the protests in Europe makes me wonder if youth being submissive like in Korea and Japan

‌Is it actually a good thing? Looking at the path Japan has taken, it doesn't look particularly good.
To put it nicely, it's being compliant with the system, but to put it differently, it's living like a pushover without saying what needs to be said.
I wonder if, as time passes and we enter a "lost 30 years," this will only end up being a favorable scenario for the middle-aged and elderly populations.
