Mental health acceptance is stilk a huge issue

Yes, definitely. Mental health (and regular healthcare in some specific ways) definitely has room for improvement. Only panhandler I remember was a guy asking people for money, with what looked like his mother, saying he had depression.

Also, if I posted any of my posts that I posted here about my mother’s behaviors on the Chinese internet

Depends on who the audience is. I've seen quite a few Chinese, particularly LGBT+ posting about their parents on xhs, but presumably there's not a lot of boomers in their algo.

My ideal country would be one with a lot of Asians (or more specifically, ethnic Han Chinese) but that are westernized

If you have Chinese citizenship, but your hukou is mainland China, can you get a job in Hong Kong? I didn't like the few hours that I spent there, it's expensive and charmless, but it's pretty westernized.

Also maybe talk to people who live there, your mother sounds like she might have a specific agenda in which experiences she shares. That's not to say abusive families aren't a major issue. One chinese was confused that americans don't beat their children, "even if the child is intentionally misbehaving". She seemed to accept "children learn from their parents, so hit someone who doesn't do what you want isn't something I want to teach" tho. I didn't investigate if that meant she sometimes beats the kid for behavior she believes is unintentional too.
