Sometimes we tend to lose a little perspective while getting caught up in our routines, problems, thoughts, and anxieties. However, living in that bubble of ours can make us lose touch with what life is like for people outside of it. And wealthier folks, or those who at least try to fake a bougie lifestyle, tend to be the most guilty of that.
Luckily, the Instagram account “The Fake Rothko” exists to expose people who get so caught up in their privilege that their actions become tone-deaf. Scroll down to find the best this account has to offer and don’t forget to leave your thoughts below.
While you’re at it, make sure to check out a conversation with Jocelyn Brewer, psychologist and founder of Digital Nutrition, and Joanne Broder, PhD, media psychologist, and author, who kindly agreed to tell us how social media contributes to people becoming out of touch.

“I was just in Europe for two weeks, it’s so different from the states. First of all, Europeans use NATURAL ingredients so pasta over there is actually good for you. You know, in America, they live to work, but in Europe, they work to live. Have you ever heard of the term ‘siesta’? Europeans also don’t get drunk like Americans do, they just sip on a glass of cabernet while melancholically gazing over the seine. Yes I’m from Ohio why do you ask?”
