Corporations love the tale of resilience.
You'll have evil corp pushing their employees to the max. Then HR sends an email "we care about your mental health", which includes a link to an e-course on meditation.
They do not care about your mental health because they don't spent a second addressing the root cause of the overload of stress.
All of society now has this fatalism built in. The believe that we can fix problems and improve life for all is largely gone. Instead, the energy is that we accept that the future is bleak, make no effort to change it, expect things to perpetually get even worse, and somehow at an individual level try to find some marginal happiness within this reality we see as a given.
I'm personally not as pessimistic as the above suggests, just saying this is the culture.
