      Literally exactly what I thought lmao. Narcissism doesn't mean you're a narcissist either, everyone has narcissistic behavior. Trying to be better or stand out from everyone else out of vanity is rooted in an insecurity in yourself and your identity. Which most narcissistic behavior is. One thing to keep in mind, alternative people are often dressing to go against an oppressive societal expectation or to have solidarity in a subculture, not to be special. Though many people take it as such. If you would still dress how you do and enjoy what you do even if a billion other people did it, you're in the green.

    The people who call other people “NPC’s” are more like these “NPC’s” they think they are insulting. It’s like people can’t fathom that other people have different worldviews and ways of thinking.

    Growing out of being a teenager and now being a young adult, I’ve come to realize there really isn’t anything wrong liking/loving popular stuff. At first I was ignoring more mainstream stuff, but sometimes the reason that stuff is mainstream is warranted! (Also it was so sad how people would judge people for liking something popular!) I didn’t like Billie Eilish at first, but then when I gave some songs a try, I resonated with a lot of the lyrics and enjoyed the music her brother created, so I just decided to keep listening. That finally let me let go of what others think of me and just enjoy any media I came across. Popular or not.

    I really loved this video guys, especially because this type of thinking segways into emotional and humanitarian discourse-- something that's very important right now. I've done some research on nostalgia as a driving force of change in the contemporary world, and everything seems to point to the idea that globalization and the increase of homogeny in media has created a push against itself, so although nostalgia is the child of globalization (and particularly westernization), it is in direction opposition of it!

    (sorry for a not-too-great english)
    this is a really good video about the narcissism that is uncontrollably spreading among all the kids.
    just the really basic fact that everybody can be whatever they want it's just an excuse to make people feel valid about what they like, do, feel etc. and, in most of the cases, result in what the video tells: feeling a "main character".
    it's inherently true the fact that us humans want to stand out and feel different from the others, but we're giving all this shit to people whose intelligent quotient is so low they can scroll hours and hours everyday on tiktok and still say they satisfied with their lives. we basically giving voice to people whose voice doesn't really mean nothing but obvious things, but they are spreaded like the absolute truth life needs in order to understand its meaning.
    it was very interesting, and i hope i can see more of that! :D

    I think the biggest issue of main character syndrome isn't being celf centered - thats okay to an extent. I think the biggest issue is just the risk of no longer thinking of others as human beings. Your coworker at subway is just as much a person as you, even if you don't see them.

    Genuinely miss old internet interactions. You could go onto a forum, interact with your fellow weirdos about your favorite niche topic then hop onto another forum and interact with other weirdos over a different topic. everyone was anonymous, our conversations were over text chats with stupid names. now? nobody's anonymous, everybody is public, you are seen as sketchy if not. you must build a personal brand, you cant just be you.
    What used to be a great form of escape and a tool to find likeminded people is now a tool keeping you in a depressing continuous cycle of engaging with constant doomscrolling. Perpetually keeping you depressed. pure sludge and slop all the way through.
    it's awful

      The difference I’d say is old internet interactions were more 1 to 1 or 1 to a few. Now they’re 1 to a million. It’s broadcasting and it creates performative discourse.

      Finally a comment that doesn’t make me lose brain cells. There’s no sense of community with how social media is structured, I’ve seen how classmates care way too much about “personal branding” and trying way too hard to stand out whilst also not standing out at all because of how inauthentic they are. That’s what the video is trying to say with layers of irony, but this video is mainly being watched by younger gen z kids who don’t really get it.

      Exactly, thank you for this. I remembered when I jumped from forum to forum and it felt so private and connected. Now It feels impersonal, empty and dry. People used to be genuine, now you gotta sell yourself and become a representation of the stale shallow company like personality in order to “fit in”.
