For Context: I'm Chinese American, and I do not feel "ashamed" for my heritage, neither do I feel "ashamed" for being a US Citizen.

The CCP is not my fault. I do not feel any shame of saying I'm from China.

Similarly, the trump admin is not my fault, I voted Harris. I do not feel any shame for being American.

So what is the thought process of people feeling shame/guilt?

Did they fulfill their civic duty? Did they meaningfully fight to defend their cause?

If they fell short of their own expectations, they'll feel shame.
