People Are Calling Out "Glamorized" Things In Society That Are Actually Toxic, And It's Spot-On
Briefly

Parents who put too much on their kid's academics, sports, or anything they do. Let kids live; they have enough going on. They don't need to be busy all day, every day - they need rest, too. Keeping them active and exploring interests is important, I agree. But when parents yell at their kids on the sideline, saying, 'We won't get that new puppy if you don't score a goal' (to a 10-year-old), you have gone too far. They don’t have to be good at everything. They do sports, play instruments, or join clubs to learn, socialize, and have fun. It ruins it for them when you start applying unrealistic pressure.
Youth. Everything is made to try to make you feel bad that you can't look 20 forever. Why aren't there commercials about face cream for men and magazine articles asking what's his secret to looking so young? This is what you 'can and can't' wear over 40. 'Getting your body back.' 'Losing baby weight.' We know it's all filters and surgery at this point, so just stop all of this.
Equating money to respect. Just because someone does not have money doesn't mean they don't deserve at least the bare minimum respect as a human being. Associating wealth with virtue. Just because someone made a lot of money (or inherited it) does not mean they are a good, ethical, or virtuous person.
Owning a house that's so big, you don't even use three or more rooms (excluding bathrooms) on a monthly basis. Owning more cars than there are people who can drive them. Painting your grass green. Wasting tons of water to water your grass so it stays green or to clean your cars is just a display of excess and detachment from reality.
