Elder millennial here. Yes, it truly was.

the 80s were the apex of the last 10000 years
> the future awaits

yep now we can be held indefinitely by the gov under certain laws

pretty much, and things have just been gradually getting worse since then

YOU never saw the 70's. The 60's.
Don't tell me about the apex of the last 10000 years.

>YOU never saw the 70's. The 60's.
correct, but you discount cultural & technological advancement. make a list of all the best movies & from that a graph of when they were made. the 80s was peak in terms of qualit & volume

I moved to the US in the 90s so I saw what it was like before this. The 90s was way more wild and degenerate than any other decade. It was just insane. I wouldn’t call it good but you had peak freedom and people not giving a shit.

It was for americans. Often at the cost of others. Hence 9/11. Nothing changed after that. Only for americans. They got old and whiny.

the 80s were the perfect decade to be alive

Yeah. No MAGAtards and less trannies.

oh man, you cant even imagine. it was like we entered into the bad ending universe. honestly its like everything that was once so golden and great got turned into an abortion...thrown into a blender..and the some put some shit in there for good measure. i dont know if it was better growing up then because now i know how good things could actually be. if you knew what they had taken from you, what you never even got to see, you would burn some shit.

hey were the 90s good

>i hate trump

get help

A boomer here. We tend to live and remember times that correlate to our youth. For me, Tomy Dorsy, Dizzy Glasbie and others. We had AM radio and maybe 3 TV stations.
Today I am easily confused by all the technology around me. To think I can send a letter with a single key click around the world in mere seconds and back then.....days just to cross the country.
So was pre 9/11 better? In many ways but the gains we have made since then, well they seem to have come from Science Fiction novels from my time.

less security concerns everywhere
govt didnt have an excuse to spy on entire country yet
nationalism was at an all time low
racism was exclusively for boomers and nutjobs

yea it was okay

Not all boomers user but a lot of them.

Nothings really different dumbass

Yeah, we werent worried about much. The great heist of our freedom began that day.

for sure, but you can excuse your southern grandma whos never met a black person for being a little racist.

90s were a jaded and blasé time.

But Americans kept voting for Republicans so they must’ve been OK with it

Aren’t you a bit old to be posting on Any Forums little retard

In some ways. We had two parties, but they weren't anywhere near as divided as they are, now. You could make fun of either party, in any place, and, at worst, people would respectfully disagree. When Bush first beat Gore, Dems were upset, but no one would riot. When Clinton was in office, Republicans would bring up his affairs, but, again, no one would riot. Socially, gays were gaining acceptance, but people weren't as up in arms, on either side; it was a social change and it was happening gradually. People made movies without agendas and Fox News and CNN had leanings, but weren't mouthpieces for politics.
Really, the only thing that got better was our access to quality granny porn.
