For those who did everything our parents told us to do... now what?
Hello everyone! We've gone dark to protest Reddit's API changes towards third party apps.
About
This subreddit was forged about the same time the economy went to hell, lamenting the sorry state of the economy, the problems of an educated (and sometimes over-educated) young workforce having troubles finding employment despite "doing everything right", and just what this generation is supposed to do when the usual markers of adulthood (kids, house, marriage) have been pushed back in the name of higher education/income potential, along with the collective reorganization of a new set of values.

My mom and I are really close, and while we lived together in my later teen years she was a really progressive and open minded person, give or take some mildly innocuous comments, but ever since I moved out 3 years ago she's become delusional, racist, and borderline psychotic. She now hates immigrants, especially east Indian people. She believes angels talk to her through Instagram. And she is psychotic when it comes to driving. She followed a woman home the other day for cutting her off. I always call her out for the things she does, but she can always find a way to justify it to herself. She feels no guilt for the horribly racist things she says about east Indian people and it scares me. Recently she got in a minor accident with an east Indian driver and she recorded him and went on a racist rant. She refuses to listen or change, and I genuinely feel so sickened and disgusted by her actions. I don't even like being around her as much because I know she'll say these horrible things in front of me and it'll cause a fight
Does anyone else have parents like this? It's so exhausting and I feel so guilty for being her daughter and not being able to stop it
