Rousseau's Dog

Rousseau's Dog is a philosophical metaphor illustrating how humans, like a dog, tend to adapt and accept new environments or situations that may not be ideal, rather than seeking to change or improve them. It highlights our tendency to conform and adjust to circumstances, even if they are unfavorable, instead of asserting control or striving for better conditions. This concept encourages reflection on our willingness to accept such passive adaptation and questions whether this behavior hinders personal and societal development.
