Have a few insane quotes from this article.
“Their attitude also has an impact on colleagues who are affected by the downbeat vibe and having to pick up the slack. Post-Covid, people are definitely less prepared to start early or work late and less willing to put their hand up if there’s something extra to be done.”
At one level it’s reasonable to ask why should they? They are apparently fulfilling their employment obligations to the letter if not the spirit and if an organisation is constantly relying on employees to put in extra hours to make the business model work, it is going to be in big trouble when that goodwill runs out and it can hardly be surprised that it does.
Job creep, where people end up doing tasks outside the original scope of their role, is a fact of life.

“As a manager in my 50s, I’ve been around the block a few times and I have a certain sympathy for the quiet quitters,” the finance manager says. “But it’s hard to deal with while keeping everyone else engaged. In particular it’s a challenge to ensure that the first job employees on the team don’t assume this behaviour is the norm.

“You always had those who did their 9-5 but not a minute more and never chipped in if there was a crisis. But it’s become like a creeping malaise with a sort of passive-aggressive undercurrent that’s really exhausting,” says one manager in charge of a large finance team in a busy multinational business.
Quiet Quitting is when you're not doing anything wrong but the vibes are off

I like how your favorite example is false.
Blood is thicker than water can be traced to 12th century German. While the fake the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb was invented in the 2000s. By a guy whose source is "I said so"
Lemmings don’t jump off of cliffs unless they’re being chased. Frogs don’t stay in boiling water unless they’ve been lobotomized first. Crabs don’t pull each other back into the bucket unless they are desperately and randomly grabbing for anything to try to get themselves out, out of fear for their lives.
Actions taken in specific, negative conditions don’t exemplify the nature of all beings.
Before you mock a sheep for staying with the flock, ask what dogs nip at its heels when it strays too far, and what wolves wait just beyond the edge of the pasture.
