I know what she meant. I just don't think it works well for many. How can you deprogram from toxic elements of a culture by feeding it?
I get the premise. And I get that one person can't change a culture. And we don't usually get to choose which one we live in, certainly not the one we are born to and raised in.
Best you can do is leave those parts that harm out and don't feed them. Carve out a niche for yourself. Put your energy and heart in things and people that don't degrade you. Teach your children a better way.
