I don't think this is true. In the circles I run in (which are as nearly as "woke" as you can be), your family and closest friends have carte blanche to tell you you're full of shit.

I know I rely on my family and friends to do so. Conversely, I know I'm able to do so with them and they love me just the same.

I mean, it's a trope at this point in American media where your loved one can slap your face hard to give you a reality check. I've never personally had that happen but to say the culture is a culture of enablers doesn't seem well supported.
