The devil works hard, but I work even harder.
Let's break down our newest lyrical masterpiece, courtesy of both Taylor Swift and @TheNational. Pull out your golden notebooks, because it's time to analyze The Alcott. A🧵:
la vida te va a recompensar por todas esas noches que te dormiste llorando, por todas las veces que te hicieron daño y seguiste confiando, por todas las veces que te desilusionaron y seguiste soñando; un día nos irá tan bien que hasta lo que hoy nos falta, nos va a sobrar.
The socioeconomic conditions of previous generations were better than ours now, yeah, but the psycho-sociological conditions of gens like Millenials and on are way better that the previous ones, dare I even mention identity and sexuallywise. Generalizing is not the answer. (3/3)
There's a discussion that I don't understand: "my generation is better than yours". In this discussion usually the teen and adult years are considered. No, your generation isn't inherently better, it just had different conditions to mine (1/3).
Using the word "better" without a noun next to it is damaging. Thinking that a set generation is overall better cause of musical taste, films, manners, thruts... That's damaging cause you are ignoring the changes that have happened and stimulated overall change (2/3).
