A kid might see it in terms of "authority figures," but live long enough and you'll understand it's everyone. Not just your professors and bosses, but your subordinates, your friends, your lovers, even your children will judge you unjustly from time to time. But that doesn't mean the world is poison and existence is a curse. It just means you have to learn to get by despite other people's imperfections the same way they get by despite yours.
Except that you can't get by if the other person is an authority figure and the imperfection is throwing you under the bus.
Your statement makes no sense in the context you're answering to.
