Politically and socially speaking, were the 90s really that great?

They seemed better because it was only the beginning of the decay of morality. Sure the 80s had decay, the 70s, and the 60s too. But now that we are in the 2010's and have seen what it brought.. do we want to keep going down this road or is it time to turn back? The majority of the population is in agreement we need to change leadership and Make America Great Again

Yes dammit.
there was no such thing as a transgender/transsexual movement.

He didn't say there were no trannies. He said they didn't have a major movement, which is true. There was gay shit being pushed constantly, but I rarely saw or heard much about trannies back then. Drag queens were spoken about, but still largely mocked aside from the extremely gay-friendly outlets. LGBTQ++++++ was still just LGB in the late 90s.

Oldfag here that came of age in the 90's.

I think the biggest difference between my generation and those of you in your 20's now is that we were all assured a future.

Maybe it's because I'm no longer young, and therefore have a completely misconstrued view on millennial life from newspapers, but it seems a lot of you are way more lost than we were. Growing up I was always sure that I would one day have a wife, kids and a career. It seems that's completely out of the question for most of you. College was the golden age and most of my circle of friends were settled by our late 20's. I notice that many of you are going into your 30's almost with the same attitude as your college years.

Also, growing up without mass access to the internet is something I'm grateful for. I think mass communication has fucked a lot of you up. The parochial constraints of peer groups and subcultures was actually important. A lot of you seem able to opt out of life in a way most of us couldn't, and I think we were happier for it.
>>
>>131568978
No.

For the average person the most enjoyable part of their lives is childhood. You basically associate the carefree feeling with better times. It just means you, like most children care about less as a child. Nostalgia is an addictive drug.

Check out youtube and see how old cartoon themes are popular. People are craving a time in their lives when you didn't worry about anything serious.

Are you retarded paddy? Mass immigration into the west and other shit like that began well before the 90s. The 90s were just a continuation of that decay.

Compared to now? Yes, very.

The ONLY thing this century has a leg-up on is the internet/computers.

Even then... social-media has been a detriment.

My oldest brother was born in 1973. In the early 90's he got a job at a farm equipment manufacturing plant straight out of highschool and no college. He married and supported him wife on the plant income. Bought a house soon after. Kid came shortly after that. This is all before he was 25.

I was born in 1983. Finished highschool in 2001. Went to uni because job market had already heated up considerably. Finished degree 2007. Got okay job, not related to degree but I didn't care, it paid alright, maybe low middle class. Starting pay was almost double what my brother bought a house with in the 90's. I could barely afford a 1 bedroom apartment and a used car. Ten years later, I'm 33, make okay money. Still can't afford a house.

The 90s is how Democrats and retard liberals got most of their power.
Religious conservative groups were trying to get anything banned that they deemed not wholesome, and people got really, REALLY sick of it.
MTV changed from "majority of videos with hot chicks/big tits" to "wahhhh I'm soooo misunderstooood" with women wearing the SJW glasses and lack of fashion we now have come to expect.
People started acting contrary just to act contrary, and that became the norm.
Bill Clinton just said he'd do everything kids wanted on MTV (even when the thing were contradictory), and idiot kids thought he was all for them, like idiots.
The 90s were the beginning of what we have now with SJWs. It was fucking awful.

Yes, but LA has been a powderkeg for a long time (see the Watts riots in the 60s). The dangers of LA's bullshit spilling across the rest of the country aren't as big as you might think. There are a ton of negroes in LA, and LA is one of the three most important cities in the US. So when they throw a chimpout, everyone hears about it. They don't travel, though, and they mostly live in their own neighborhoods where everyone else knows not to go. They largely just stay where they are and burn their own neighborhoods down. So far most major chimpouts have burnt themselves out over a few days to a week. What's very worrisome is the recent trend of the media actively encouraging the chimpouts to continue with their constant race-baiting and bullshit like pushing the "hands up, don't shoot" narrative. It's causing riots to last longer and spread farther, so you might actually see some major spreading of sustained violence in the next few years since the left seems to be weaponizing black people.

Who the fuck is saying the 90's were great?

I was in teens and early 20's in the 90s so of course I'm biased about it being the best times, but at my diverse high school we had black red/blue and Mexican cholla gangs that would beat you up if you made eye contact, we had jocks/cheerleaders, we had rich kid preppies that hated everyone that was poorer or richer than them, we had nerds, Poos and Chinks teaming up, and then the outcast white kids who were post-hippies, punks, skaters and proto-goths. We didn't have a SJW PC climate that was forced upon us, niggers actually got expelled from school or sent to the bad school for nigger shit instead of apologies being made for them, so that might be the only difference from today besides shit being a lot cheaper.

It only SEEMED better because we didn't KNOW any better. This was before the housing bubble collapse, but the bubble was constructed throughout the 90s-early 00s. We just didn't KNOW what Madoff was doing, or Wallstreet. Once we found out, we realized just how shitty things had been for a long time. It was all lies.

I wasn't aware enough to really keep track of too many social or political issues (1992 baby here, so the 90's were fucking awesome as a kid), but it was the era of the Assault Weapons Ban, the LA race riots, the start of the acceptance of the gay movement (lots of TV firsts regarding gay kisses and gays), but all in all, culturally it was a very alive time. People were extremely optimistic for 2000 (and the election). They were excited about what technology could do for us.

Little did they know what all of those things would lead to. How the movements would transform into screeching fascism. How technology would invade our lives and expand the internet to the unwashed masses who then ruined it for everyone. How president after president continued to serve the interests of the global elite over the interests of the people.

The decay of morality is fun at the beginning, like skidding down a big mountain is fun. The potential energy stored up by civilization is still there to be expended on amusing you.

Probably didn't start for Ireland. We had like 10 niggers in the entire country in 1990 and we've only had mass immigration for like a decade now.

The 1990s in Finland were in a 99.999 % white society and it was a great time.
