Were the early 2000's objectively better, or is it just nostalgia?

I miss going to McDonalds and sitting down, my father ordering a large pizza and running off to play McPlayland to ride the merry-go-round for 15 minutes until they brought out a nice crispy pizza on its warming tray delivered by a cute white 16yo girl. Never a non-white to be seen.

The last time I had a big mac meal was around that price. It was garbage then, I can only imagine how bad they are now.

They were for me, I played d&d with my friends at least 3 days a week and I didn't have to worry about paying bills. In 2005 I knew of the existance of Reggaeton and I knew immediately it was the beginning of the end, it was the first sign I saw of the clownworld we are living today.

the most progressive political movement at the time was actually trying to take down McDonalds. Good times.

>Were the early 2000's objectively better
yes, mainly because inflation wasnt as high back then, and the future generations will feel nostalgia of this times, because inflation will get worse

Remember distinctly back in 2005-2010's, everyone was happy, well adjusted, had REAL social lives, hanged out with everyone, were really chill and there were less sociopathic/psychopathic behaviors. Then the 2012's came and you see this shit:
>suddenly everyone is “taking selfies”
>constantly doing faggot shit with their phone
>”what is this psychotic, self-documenting behavior”
>refuse to be a part of it
>”what’s your facebook user”?
>”oh.....you don’t have one? Oh... I’m”
>”what’s your insta”?
>“Oh...you...don’t have one”?
>start to see the most hyper social faggots getting all the irl attention and social status because they can manipulate social media to make their life look cool
>the reality is they’re just sitting around with other phone staring faggots taking pictures
Instead of say hanging out, just skating or playing basketball and other team-oriented sports, being with groups playing on our PC in LAN parties or just having fun with every chick we see and catcalling them as a joke amongst ourselves, everyone is now glued on their phones all day pretending they have a life. Truth is most people now just stare at their phones all day then pretend they're the coolest shit with their bants and pics.

Cont'd:
Friends slowly pulled away while I slowly isolated myself because of this unwillingness to get on board. This world is so fucking gay. It’s only gotten worse because of COVID. Before, I would have conversations with 15-50 people DAILY. Now, it's been reduced to around 5 people per day. I literally will be shitposting on Any Forums on my phone going for a walk because the second I put my phone down, I see nothing but horror. Nobody actually lives their life they just stare at their fucking phone all day every day, bully and harass others that they don't like to the point of suicide while in real life, pretend they like you or are your friends but will expose themselves what they really think once they post their toxicity on social media platforms.
While social media sites like Friendster and Myspace existed before, people weren't plugged in 24/7 since you needed a PC for that. With the advent of the iPhone and the smartphones that followed with it, everything suddenly changed. What went wrong with this world and where are the sane individuals who has formed communities other than the Amish who outright reject every form of technology after the 1800s?
If I could opt out in this world and join a community where social media shit and smartphones are banned, where acting and socializing like a NORMAL human being while not outright totally neglecting technology but only removing the toxic aspects of it, I would in a heartbeat.

The best moment we can create, is today.
The 80's, 90's, 20's, or even 2010's, didn't have a segregated white zone ever.
If we create a segregated white community in America, we can regain our society. Or complete it rather then let it be scattered across the stars.
That's why today, is the best ever! We have the technology! Experience! The internet history to guide us! We have it all!
Now what to do with it.
