Do westerners have a "shame culture" like my family does?

Wow that's heavy man. Thanks for sharing, it doesn't sound like fun and I must assume it's always been that way for you growing up, in which case kudos for recognising the negative behaviour. Do you and your brother ever talk about your mother's behaviour towards you? I wonder if there's some solace you can both find in sympathy and support. I don't know that your mother's behaviour is likely to change but it may be quicker to change how it affects you both (and the second order effects you wrote about).

Anyways, you sound like a thoughtful individual so you're going to be fine, we all just hope you have the best journey on the way there.

What do you think about the concept of Ownership Transcendence?

I like the idea, given IP as a moat to protect initial investment doesn't really serve the purpose any more - evidence lots of innovative products now available as copies on Temu

I particularly like your expression of stewardship, it seems like maintenance and quality are two abundant failure points in this generation.

You could argue the Soviets already did this back in the day with reverse engineering western tech, and again, some Chinese manufacturing today.
