sorry that this video is a bit disorganized :$ i found it more difficult than usual to sort my thoughts out in this one because i had so many different topics i wanted to touch on. here are some issues i have with making “romanticize your life/i'm the main character“ your mantra. (ps: i like some of the ideas of a romanticized life, just not all of them :)) **CORRECTION: Bartolomé de Las Casas is Spanish so he is European, making him a bad example of a non-Eurocentric writer and I apologize. He was a Spanish colonist but he actually became famous for his defense of the rights of the Indigenous people of the Americas and called out a lot of the awful atrocities that came from colonialization and slavery. Nonetheless, he was a Spanish colonist and indeed European so I am completely in the wrong for including him in the video and I'm truly sorry. Thank you to the people who brought this to my attention.** ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* i'd love to hear what you all have to say *:・゚✧*:・゚✧ TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 intro 2:43 pros of “romanticize your life“ 7:41 cons of “romanticize your life“ 7:46 eurocentrism 10:02 life is not a performance 12:11 “it's all about perspective“ 15:13 self-centered life 17:30 exclusivity 18:49 pretty privilege & being the main character 20:00 counterargument SOURCES/LITERATURE THAT INFLUENCED MY THOUGHTS IN THIS VID: #:~:text=How To Romanticize Your Life In 44 Ways.,and watch the sunrise one morning.
