The world doesn't live up to expectations:

How idealization leads to the accumulation
of negative karma
Accumulated karma is the accumulated negative experiences. Hence it becomes clear that the accumulated karma is the negative emotional experiences accumulated by a person during the years of his life.
It is the accumulated negative emotions, and not some wrong deeds or views on life, that are the main cause of karmic problems in a person's life. A person can have any views on life, even the most extreme ones, i.e. it is not forbidden to be a nationalist, racist, communist, etc. The Creator is merciful and allows his children to hold any opinions, because this world is created diverse.
But if on the basis of his views a person is filled with negative emotions towards other people, family, society, etc., this is a sin. Or if a person considers only one variant of the events of his life acceptable and does not allow other variants, this is also a sin. The very sin that leads to problems and troubles in his own life. So it is possible to be a nationalist (pacifist, communist, etc.). You cannot condemn other people for not sharing your views. If you, being a nationalist, allow other people to have their own ideas and live according to them, you will not have any special problems.
So, it is unacceptable (i.e. sinful) when a person is dissatisfied with the world around him. And when do we have dissatisfaction? When we have an idea in our head about how the world should be. We have the idea and the world is not the way we would like it to be. So we are dissatisfied with it.
The situation where we have an idea in our head that is very meaningful to us about how the world around us should be is called “idealization.”

The concept of idealization
Idealization does not occur when you have an idea of how the world around you should be. But only when, on the basis of this idea, you began to feel irritation or any other negative emotion.
To idealize means to give excessive importance to some model of the world, i.e. to feel any negative emotions in a situation when the real world does not coincide with this “ideal” model (to hate, be jealous, resentful, etc.).
Let's say you have a strong belief about how your life should be (some “ideal” model of your life). Comparing this ideal model with your real life, you see significant discrepancies and begin to worry about what is happening in reality. As you begin to worry, you begin to accumulate sins.
Idealization occurs when you have in your head some significant model of how your husband (or wife, child, acquaintance, boss, authority figure, etc.) should behave. You know how he should behave. And he behaves a little (or quite) differently. That is, he does not correspond to the ideal that exists in your mind. So you get aggressive and try to get him to act the way you think he should. Or you fall into sadness or despair that he is not behaving properly.
In both cases, you do not accept this person (and through him or her, the whole world) as he or she is because he or she does not conform to the ideal that exists in your head.
It is possible to idealize not only individuals, but also situations in the world in general. For example, the government is acting wrongly and leading the country to a dead end. Democrats have forgotten about democracy, and communists have forgotten about the problems of the people. A worker in my profession is paid too little, others are paid unreasonably much, etc. And there is a huge number of such idealizations that so poison our lives.
