10 years ago, people used to say "entire 2000s decade was shit". Then a few years ago, people were like "well, the EARLY 2000s weren't that bad, at least smartphones, social media cancer and film ruining sjws didn't exist then". But now in 2019, you have zoomers going around saying the LATE 2000s and early 2010s were also part of the good times

>people younger than me exist
Shocking revelation.

The internet was a mistake.

what's the island on the left?

It’s almost like every year of every decade of every century has good and bad stuff, and nostalgia’s always going to exist, as is hatred for the past. For example, there’s no denying the 70s are retro, but some people still hate the sight of bell-bottoms and disco moves.

But individual year nostalgia was a fucking mistake that makes “my childhood > your childhood” arguments even more pathetic.

No time being alive for me has been good time.

i fucking miss poptropica and angry birds

2006 was the start of the decline. Deal with it, bitch.

There's nothing more pathetic that retards who fall for the nostalgia meme.

Like I said, the recession was a big reason things went to shit.
Look, I'm not defending the Democratic party. Both parties fucking suck (Republicans moreso). But the recession happened because the government regulated banks less, and that started under HW Bush, continued under Clinton, and accelerated under Dubya. That's two Republicans, one of whom fucked things to hell, and one Democrat.
There's a reason many people consider Bush to be the worst president ever.

Yeah, but a lot of the retrofuturist feel started in the 70s. That's when video games kicked off, and Star Wars came out in 1977.
Neon is also more 50s than 80s. I think you're referring to the rave lights.

I don't think Shirley Temple thought times were great when she was 12.
Just sayin'.

Man can you guys stop bitching about this.

Truth is, the formula that applies to most people is the years were you were ages 5-10 were "the best". Everything before you were 5 is outdated/overrated, and everything after you were 10 is shit.

For example, you've got 35 year olds who think "Man 1993 was the best time to be a kid".

youtube.com/watch?v=Hurg2uWo06E

But then you've got 25 year olds who are like "No man 2003 was the best time to be a kid".

And then 15 year olds who are like "2013 was the best time to be a kid".

I'm 35 and I don't even remember the early 90's.

you deftly dodged that bullet there. it might've affected your worldview

So you think all times are equal? You think America in the 1930s was just as good as America in the 1980s? Because you might want to reconsider that opinion.

I'm saying people feel the strongest about whatever happened to them at around 12 years old. Everything mattered more, everything was more enjoyable, everything was more serious, etc. Its always "kids today have it easy" or "things were better when I was a kid."

Its because shit has gotten worse since. Now people look back at the 2000s and see it better then today. Its true today is worse then the 2000s. That doesn't mean the 2000s aren't shit anymore. They still are shit. Peoples perception has changed.

Well your memory must be shot since others your age claim to remember even 1989

>Zoomer is getting older and reminiscing about their shitty childhood which makes Boomer feel even older than he already is.

>not remembering anything at all from your first school year.
yikes

They are full of shit. They are relying on what they learned about the 1980s to say they remember the 1980s. Sure, they have childhood memories. It doesn't mean they remember the 1980s. They certainly don't remember a decade as half of it they didn't exist and the half they did exist they weren't conscious of until maybe the last year or so of the decade.

I remember back in 2014 when those kind of nostalgia videos were made about 2001-2003 adult swim. Now even 2010 adult swim is nostalgic, fuck I'm old.

Lolwut. King of the Hill is like the tamest adult show there is. How the fuck are you scared of KotH?
"Oh shit, Bobby just said "testicles"! Mommy! Help me!"

It’s not that it was good but rather that everything is so shit by comparison that it will make anything look good. This happens every generation, I remember the previous generation saying it about my generation, albeit with more grace, and my generation says it about the millennials and God forbid whatever generation proceeds them they will crucify.

I grew up from around 1997-2007 (turned 18 in 2011) and I can say that my entertainment was garbage, there were some good shows and songs and games but almost all of it was trash. I am nostalgic about the high quality products but most of the things released in that time frame were brain rotting garbage and I feel nothing for it. The fact that people wax nostalgic about it is absurd

Zoomerfag here, you fucking niggers are saying the exact shit what the previous generation said about your generation. You're going to the stage of thinking generation z feeling nostalgic about their childhood being good is somehow retarded because they didn't grew up on fucking N64, PS1, 90s food and snacks and 90's cartoons like you faggots did. Nobody gives a shit what you think about our generation and just you faggots are doing right now we will talk shit to next generation that comes after us. It's this retarded cycle of how the previous generation always disapproved of the current generation and how saying they never grew up in the "good times" like their definition of what defines a good show because X cartoon in the 90s was best and the new cartoons are shit

>"LOL THESE FUCKING ZOOMERS THINK SHOWS LIKE REGULAR SHOW THINK WAS A GOOD SHOW OBVIOUSLY THESE FAGS NEVER GREW WITH SHOWS LIKE HEY ARNOLD AND REN AND STIMPY"

How about instead of being such absolute cock goblin OP that you actually grow the fuck up and realized the past will always stay the past you can never go back to it no matter how much you wish and that times are changing and you need to adapt instead stubborn old bastard who berates the current generation's taste in music, TV shows, cartoons, games etc.

In other words, go fucking outside you obese piece of shit

People who make posts like this are retarded.

That DVR theater block is kino as hell. Brak Show wasn't good but it's worth throwing on every once in a while for remembrance's sake

The 21st century has been shit so far. The 90s felt good only because I grew up in them and could barely remember anything about the 80s other than the carpet I was crawling around on.

Looking back it seems the boomers had the best of it. Economic boom of the 50s, sexual boom of the 60s, the music and movies of the 70s and 80s. It was easy to get work, get laid and have a family. Everything was affordable.

Sadly, the glory period of capitalism of the 50s-60s was ruined in the 70s, by going off the gold standard and letting inflation run away with itself, while wages never kept pace. It lumbered on for over 30 years, before everything truly got fucked in 2008.

Now we're stuck with Tinder and social media ensuring that no non-Chad has a good chance of getting laid anymore. Can't easily get a job that isn't misery inducing. Awful rap-inspired music, capeshit films, rampant SJWfaggotry. Oh, and mass-immigration actively destroying our nations and becoming an ever-bigger problem, after running in the background since WW2.

As much as I love technology, I'd give it all up to be a Boomer who could actually live life and enjoy it, even with the spectre of the Cold War looming over us. Who'd have thought that the Cold War was actually a good thing that inspired us. Now we turned inwards and became the ultimate narcissists. While the good guys became the bad guys with their endless wars for resources and to service the never-ending military-industrial complex.

Actually for a lot of 90's kids, we were influenced by the generation before us who established the major voices in the emerging internet medium. So you have a lot of millennials convinced the 80's were the better time to have been a kid and they missed the boat.

You should look into what exactly generations are and some history.

I've seen millennials argue that 80s cartoons were shitty toy commercials and they're glad they grew up with 90s cartoons instead, since they had more real content

100% accurate. if you ask old people who have lived over 40+ years they will tell you that the times were better back then. America was a real country with a thriving culture, now it is a shitty culture and getting sicker

what a strange image

The early 00's were shit. Imagine your decade starting out after not only a huge tech bubble implosion but two wars

No you wouldn't you stupid fucking troglodyte you missed the morals and traditions that have degraded over the past 20th century due to a certain (((influence))) over the west for nearly 100 years. Everything went to shit after the "good guys" won WW2 killing those evil natsoc and japs from destroying the west. The 50s was just an adrenaline shot to america brought upon for the war effort meaning it was easy to maintain moral, order and law because of all the men who came back from the war who didn't want to see their country a defiled shitshow like it is today and that slowly died off during the 60s with the death of JFK, the rise of the hippies and the slow death of tradition over the west. You just want back that sanity that America and other Western Nations that slowly lost over a period of time. You wouldn't want the constant threat of nuclear annihilation from a communist country, or your child dying from a disease that can be cured today or having to go through pages of outdated encyclopedia that today you can have thousands of years of human knowledge and skills in a moment's notice. The problems you see in society are just easier to see with technology and the internet because you can now see degeneracy like never before. Was America and other Western countries better back then? Yes but would I want to go back? Fuck no but that doesn't mean I don't want to go back because there wasn't any internet because it's because just because it was better back then doesn't mean they had problems of their own.

>you missed the morals and traditions that have degraded over the past 20th
yeah bro, people were saints back then. no serial killers, low crime, no gangs, no drug use. everything was dandy

Part 2/2

The only option we have this is just to make the future better for our children and for their children. Teach your child honor, discipline and respect. We are now facing the hard times of society and our only hope is to raise the next generation to be strong and not weak

What kind of fucking autistic moron are you? My argument was literally about morality of the west is degrading but technological progress wasn't and that we should try to save tradition instead abolishing it for the sake of progress.

How are you measuring this "morality"? It was common for men to visit prostitutes, beat their women, and drink themselves to death 80 years ago, is that not a lack of morality? Do you really fall for those "5 YEAR-OLD PANGENDER OTHERKIN" articles and assume that's the standard today? You are really retarded and gullible. You probably think the nuclear family is traditional too don't you retard

These dumb fag kids being used to extract money from in games like Fortnite would get wrecked 24/7 in Quake.
The entire tech world has shifted to extracting money from retards. That's why everything sucks now.

Why do Zoomers like stealing Spongebob, a late Millennial show? Don't they have any good shit of their own?

Did you miss the part where I lament mass-immigration destroying us from within? It's obvious that the good guys lost WW2 and mass-immigration and decolonization boomed as a direct result of the war. While decolonization was unavoidable, what was avoidable was opening the borders to them.

It's just that it was still much better in the West during the Cold War, while those in the east were imprisoned and miserable. Now it's a total free-for-all and (((globalism))) has accelerated tenfold, further making more and more people miserable, unemployable, replaceable and sexless, leading to the societal cancer we are witnessing now.

Outsourcing all the jobs to Red China to save a cent and forcing Westerners to work in services or front-line work for shit pay (or die) wasn't the best way to build on the pre-70s economic success. Instead, we have the faggot (((1%))) hoarding all the profits, because for some reason inflation cannot be controlled and wages won't keep pace with it.

Hot opinion: all popular culture is a consumerist cancer plaguing society and nostalgia for it is engineered and exploited by corporations.

You really are a stupid motherfucker aren't?

>"lol bad things happen back then as today so that doesn't mean morality is crumbling today"

You are type of delusional fag who believe the world is better today just because supercomputers can fit in the palm of our hands and we don't have to worry about diseases that used to kill us. Wow you notice that the past wasn't some type of pure utopian paradise and that there were people back then did degenerate shit back then as today like visiting prostitutes, drinking themselves to death etc. Yeah great observation retard do you want a fucking medal or something? But at least degeneracy wasn't praised like a fucking badge of honour like it is today I'm not saying that's 5 year old pangender otherkin is the fucking norm here because outside of internet nobody knows what the fuck an "otherkin" is. But today you have people like Desmond, a drag queen crossdressing kid being praised in the media as some "stunning brave soul" while he fucking lapdances in front of a bunch of pedophile faggots throwing single dollar bills like some stripper at low tier gentlemen's club and somehow there's no public outcry of this aside of a few people? Where the media lies about billionaire pedophile who ran a international child sex ring about somehow killing himself coincidentally, no outcry? Where millions of record high undocumented migrants pour into our countries, bringing their unwanted problems and crime along with them, breeding like rabbits while the main inhabitants of their country becomes the minority and no mass public outcry? That's we praise LGBT fags coming out braver than are grandfathers who storm the beaches of Normandy on D-Day? How many blue pills do you have to take to get on the level you are on right now because I never met someone so apathetic and retarded as you for 10 years I been on god forsaken website.

Why do you keep relying on this retarded notion that anyone who thinks the world is getting worse only has that opinion because their head is filled with clickbait headlines?

Statistically, the dumbfucks born in the last 20 or so years are more likely to identify as gay, more likely to be mentally ill or attempt suicide, more likely to be “transgender”, and have less social interaction than any group of people who came before them. You can repeat pablum about how Technology Rocks! and your best friend is an African migrant you met on Discord (but have never seen in real life, of course) but the reality is the ability to watch a tranny get Sawzall dildo’d at the click of a button is not “progress” and the deteriorating communities we live in, socially and ecologically, are very real things. These concerns outweigh your gay little obsession with “technological progress”.

Life before 2007 was great, anything after that is shit.

Everybody thinks that the good times ended at some point towards the end of their childhood, and everybody younger than them wants to believe that they caught the tail end of the good times. Hard to say when things actually started going to shit, but I’m happy for the people who are younger than me that they were able to enjoy their childhood, even if the shit they enjoyed never meant anything to me. I’m sure anybody who’s older than me would say say that my childhood must have been shit, and those before them would say the same of theirs. Either way, your childhood isn’t coming back, so brace yourself for the world to continue changing for the rest of your life.
