No you're the one who isn't understanding me jack, you're "respecting" your students according to the edicts of your culture, but not according to the edicts of theirs. Blunt criticism doesn't fulfill the social function you say it does when the society is atomized and hypercompetitive, not because of some stupid "good times make weak men" bullshit.
What instead is happening is a demonstration of precarity in the teaching profession where job security can be threatened by a cultural misunderstanding, not some fucking "emotional incapability of the westerner", thats a rightoid way of thinking. Its fine when we critize westoids for being dumb and racist, but its really fucked when it goes into individualist abhorrence of "weakness" and trivializations of mental illness.
