Because 00s and 10s are basically 90s with a lot more of information and technology. That's why it feels so different.

>>
>>82191794

Well for starters the public is growing quite hostile towards the mainstream media as they've recognized that it is simply pandering to various groups. Back when the pandering was mostly done in the form of soap operas and cop shows and the objective was just to sell more soap and guns, it was all fine. But in the last 20 years the media has quite knowingly started pandering to political groups, both to make money but also to gain political influence.

What used to be regarded as an institution that was politically incorrect by design, which favored a big scoop on a major politician, is now actively avoiding alienating the establishment because they might loose white house press conference privileges and one-on-one interviews with the president.

And then there is the absolutely devestating effect the internet has had on centralized media control. The music that people listened to was almost entirely dictated by record companies for example. What was considered fashionable was dictated by fashion designers. These days people explore new music on youtube and can order clothes online and mix and match any style from any era or region of the world. nobody is reading a magazine and going. The role of the traditional trend setters is almost entirely about trying to keep up with the kids rather than the kids trying to keep with the trend setters.

it should say modern white male. Millennials without pampered upbringings (black people) are still shaping up to be real men (when they have access to resources).

I feel bad for the alt-right because they are young men who are bitter and frustrated on a very profound level and the alt-right is the first time all these profound feelings have manifested something, so they get a lot of affirmation from the alt-right movement, but from the outside looking in it is clear that the movement is not the answer for these young men.

I think a lot of men in the movement will find peace and prosperity, I just hope the movement doesn't do too much damage to society as it runs its course.

"They breed like rabbits", my dad always says.

Except I don't think he sees it as a big problem in the grand scheme of demographics in this country.

When I'm his age I'll have to endure living in a country/city where a majority of the people are not like me, and that's alienating and troublesome for anyone, no matter what race you are. The differences between us is blatant and abhorrent, if you take off the "YOU'RE RACIST" goggles.

I'm not very optimistic for all of our futures, but I'm glad my parents got to enjoy a nice life in a relatively prosperous and peaceful time.

I always had the feeling that despite its share of problems and controversies, the 90's tried to teach us that we could get along and work toward a better future.

A lot of the sitcoms I watched like Family Matters and Fresh Prince of Bel-Air examined race relations and impacted young viewers on how to approach and examine something from the other person's shoes.

Seriously, I'd give anything to back 20 years to 1997. That was one of my best years growing up because I started jr. high, made tons of friends, went out on my 1st date, and the future looked promising compared to the shit I have to deal with now. I'd give up my smartphones, WiFi, Apps, and other tech for the simplicity and pre-jadedness that I experienced in the 90's.

Most white people were oblivious to what blacks caused and lived in their own bubbles in the 90s. Only the poor faggots that lived in cities dealt with nigger crap all the time.

Yeah, internet existed in the 90s. You know what didn't exist? Pretty much every website you visit today. Even google started in the late 90s and that was one of the firsts. Internet of the 90s was just the basic framework for communication with some massage boards. Remember online capabilities of PS2, that's your clue and that was early 2000s.

You're naturally not supposed to grind your teeth, as it ruins your ability to chew and thus your quality of life declines. Now, instead of addressing why every second person is grinding their teeth, dentists will tell you its perfectly normals, "happens to everyone", and get you sign off on grinding everything to a nub and replacing with crowns. It's profitable, and then the subsequent reliance dentistry care for the rest of your life is even more so.

Being dead serious black people were like these aliens in America when I was a kid their culture was so surreal to me as a kid since I grew up in a white majority community.

I always use to think the gangster stuff was just a joke they were playing on eachother and laughed at the black stereotypes on TV.

quite a bit has changed since the 90s:

- 9/11, terrorism, and the rise of islam
- smartphones / ubiquitous information
- widespread globalism vs. nationalism debates
- sociopolitical critiques of popular culture gaining widespread readership (anna sarkesian et. al)
- mass market nerd culture
- emergence of near photo-realistic computer graphics
- increased racial tensions as the demographics in america and europe have changed
- populist feminism
- gay rights movement
- decay of television, rise of streaming services
- dramatic increase in the cost of home ownership
- emergence of consumer grade artificial intelligence

not commenting on whether any of the above are good or bad, but we have seen expansive change in all of those categories. philosophically the main change imo has been from irony and detachment to activism and struggle. people definitely care more than they used to about the "big issues," but all that caring seems to be doing is adding more gasoline to the impending explosion.

within the next decade we're going to see some kind of massive catastrophe.

Not even Aziz Ansari and Michael Cera believe that about themselves.
Weed has been an all but mainstream thing since the 60s.
Phones are bigger than ever.
Plastic bottles have been with us since 1947.
Fashion comes and goes in waves, with modern fashion owing much to the "man's man" eras of the 40s and 50s.
Taekwondo is a perfectly valid martial art.
Cycling is healthy for you, only a minority of faggots do it because of the carbon imprint, and only an idiot that's never encountered a frontal lobe damaged handycaped person would make fun of you for wearing a helmet.
Porn is the same as it has been since the late 70s, only thing difference is that you don't have to go to the shady part of town to get it or have people give you dirty looks while carrying Hustler to the bookstore counter.

There wasn't racism like now. TV, music, movies and videogames were all still great. Even the pleb shit was great compared to the absolute garbage there is now. People were still happy. People weren't so broke. People actually talked to each other. You could get a girlfriend without needing facebook.Fast food was better because they weren't cutting costs because of a floundering economy.

90s feels.

>Post-race, post-gender. Nobody is really racist or sexist like they were in the 70s, we can laugh about that stuff now.
>Pre-marital sex is fine if you are responsible re: AIDS.
>Women sexy but never slutty (actual whores were more modest than Instagram girls today and would advertise fewer services than Tinder girls)
>Lot of cool women in bands and in films, nobody really made a big deal out of it.

The 90s weren't naive, they were relaxed. Things just weren't a big deal, now everything is a big headache and people have Opinions and you can't play a video game, watch a movie or jack off without it being Problematic.

Things were more balanced. You could have sex with your girlfriend without being a sinner but people didn't think shaving their pubes off or having threesomes was normal.

People went out more and had more fun. Doing things to photograph them wasn't really a thing.

Millennials are massively, crushingly anxious and that is the spirit of our age now. It seems to me this is what happens when women get hold of social networking technology. People complain about the affect porn has on men but Instagram/Facebook/Twitter is 100 times more toxic for women.

Preach it over 30s brother.
I remember going out for hours playing as a kid without a cellphone or my mom or dad worrying too much where I was or what I was up to. I remember a time when spanking was still seen as a valid parenting technique, and when they still smoked indoors at the bank and post office. I remember bartering game cartridges/VHSs with my buddies, and outdoors communal porno magazine hiding places where you had to add one to be able to take one with you home. I remember dad catching me steeling one of his mags, yet instead of being yelled at, he just smiled at me proudly. I remember asking a girl out over the phone, and having to deal with her parents before I got to talk to her. I remember vinyl going out of style, and how much greater sounding and more convenient we all thought CDs were, much cooler than records or tape. I remember watching literal films being projected on the big screen, and how much brighter looking that was. I member.

I agree with the bullshit over alimony and all that other crap, but the whole line about "the lie that woman can feel true love that is".

You gotta be smart and careful when you choose a woman to marry. Think of it long and hard before you commit to a life-changing event. Unfortunately most people don't do this. That and actually have the prenup done months in advance with proper legal consultation for both parties.

>You gotta be smart and careful when you choose a woman to marry
There is no point to marriage if women cannot feel love towards you and btw wanting to suck your dick is not love retard.

People in the 90s and every other decade were having the same kind of "shit's fucked" conversations we're having now, but you're right in that most people are critically distraught shells being kept alive by the promise of occasional pleasure. We depend so heavily on a million different services for so much necessary shit that we couldn't acquire ourselves even if we knew how. That dependency makes most of us retain the mentality of a child in some corner of our minds which spills out in the form of neuroticism and sometimes complete meltdowns.

Sheltered people are folks who think blacks are the same as whites. Most whites that show racism towards blacks have lived around them while whites who are against racism have almost never met THE AVERAGE BLACK AMERICAN, no they meet genetic outliers who are kinder and civilized and thus create the illusion that all blacks are like that in their brains.

I'm glad we're talking about this, I feel like an alien sometimes.

I was a lefty in the 90s, it wasn't about screaming at people.
I still believe the same things actually but I'm a 'shitlord' and all that now apparently. Like a lot of people my age I'm basically politically inactive as a result apart from (sometimes) voting in elections.

Things have gone backward in a way I don't really understand if I'm honest. Live and let live worked, not "recognise my 52 genders and pronouns" which doesn't.

I was listening to "The Real Ramona" recently and it struck me Throwing Muses was just a cool band on 4AD people liked in the early 90s.

Today it would be a massive feminist statement people would be arguing about having Kristin Hersh and Tanya Donnelly playing guitars and fronting it. And yet, that kind of band doesn't exist now anyway and its a feminist thing to do to writhe about in your knickers instead of learn how to play. It just makes no sense to me.

I think what pisses off a lot of my generation is the bullshit that was fed to us by our parents, public school, and society; graduate from college and you'll get a satisfying career of your choice. Unless you're in a technical field like medicine, engineering, etc., there's a glut of college grads with no experience that companies aren't going to hire. You do higher education, put yourself thousands of dollars in debt, and you end up being a wage slave at a sub-par job.

Not exactly /pol/ but it introduced me to the concept so I did further research then started making comparisons with the behavior of blacks today and in the past and lead me to the conclusion that all racism towards black people is justified regardless of who the black person is.

Just seeing how racist blacks are to white people in South Africa shows they only hate racism when its directed at them but will be racist towards anyone else. Hypocracy is a very common behaviorial trait of black people.

I was liberal as a kid in the 90's because I believed in everything that pop culture and media said about Captain Planet or Burger King Kids Club diversity is great and all that jazz.

Nowadays, I'm too conservative for most liberals as well as too liberals for conservatives. This really is a bizarro world that we live in where identity politics are favored over socioeconomic disparity in the workforce.

I'm all for private enterprise, but I loathe corporate sociopathy. I'm not a big fan of Marxist-Engels line of thought either, but I do feel that there should be some government-mandated programs to ensure that its citizens can rise up on their feet and contribute to the greater world.
>>
>>82196548
Yeah exactly.

In British politics there is an old joke that the Opposition are the people sitting opposite but the Enemy are the people sitting behind you.

Identity politics is the poison. Identity was something we thought we were getting past (judge character not skin etc), it just seems so backwards I can't even pretend to go along with it which leaves me stranded.
>>
>>82196707
And meanwhile, people who are generally indifferent or moderate are starting to slide into reactionary attitudes because people are shouting them down for "Your SILENCE is contributing to oppression!" and other bullcrap.

I'm willing to bet by 2050, the Western world (including the US) is going to have a serious identity crisis within its societal structure and governmental policy.

You never have to feel feelings or think thoughts that are truly your own anymore, you're never lonely. And you don't really have a real sense of self as a result.

It's such a clear and almost laughable symptom of social media becoming mainstream and getting mixed up in vain celebrity culture and populism. It's all about skin deep appearances now, on-line and off-line, with an insufferable pressure on today's youth in particular to keep up using the various methods that have been made available to shout their corporate master's socio-political agendas as hard as they can and look good while doing so.

So true.

I actually remember people used to say stuff like "I don't think my being gay is even near to the most interesting thing about me, so why are you acting like it is?". There is even a, holy of holies, an Aaron Sorkin West Wing episode about this. They do all this plotting about a gay senator and it turns out he doesn't see his sexuality as having anything to do with how he'll vote and Its A Lesson We Should All Learn.

Now if I accept someone without comment for their choices, I'm "literally" dehumanising them and wishing them dead.

At a local level SJWism is just mean girl standard practice. Make up vague rules, try and catch people out. Its cruel when they do it at school, now its a networked multi-million participant game. Look at Joss Whedon, he should realise he can't do or not do anything at this point, he joined the game and those are the rules.

All african culture are shit, and african black people display and displayed in the past the same hyper aggressive, impulsive, and psychotic behavior that american blacks display today showing that it is genetic.

Blacks were already seen as a criminal race since the 50s meaning their niggertry has been going on for decades long before their criminal music genre existed.

Nah, I think this has much more to do with how progressively shit African American culture has been allowed to become, and that stupid identity politic driven exclusivism that dictates that said victims of that culture have to be the only ones to mend it. Help a brother out by calling him out on how stupid that gangsta shit is and throw a few books his way, and tell your kids to stop rewarding his behaviour by buying his records and drugs. That way you get less niggas and more reputable peoples. That's a much better tactic than buying into 19th century pseudo scientific genetic theories, whining over your right to exist instead of just fucking some white ladies or claiming a German dictator that took his own life because he couldn't face his incompetence did nothing wrong.

No fuck you thinking like this is what caused blacks to destroy so many settlements in America by believing they were the same as us.

You have never met the average black before, blacks dont have brains like us what they feel is fact and if the black feels that hip hop is good then it is good no matter what evidence you show them.
>and throw a few books his way,
He will probably attack you because you threw something at him.
>and tell your kids to stop rewarding his behaviour by buying his records and drugs.
>telling black children to stop buying entertainment
Good luck with that.

I dont think you faggots realize that black people LITERALLY CANNOT CHANGE, the same way they act now is how they acted since they first spawned in Africa as there are jungle human groups in Papua New Guinea that act indistinguishable from african blacks showing that this lower human behavior has a very long history record of existence.

You cannot deprogram 20,000 years of feral nature out of a human no matter what you do the only way to help black people is to downright completely edit their brain structure but if we have to do that to make blacks civilized as a whole then it confirms all the racism about them.

That's exactly the point. There was an organic cultural revolution following Kennedy's assassination. It was visceral and completely necessary and was only tipped off by he shooting.

What we have today is manufactured in every sense. The professionally angry have carved out a niche channeling 60's outrage while dressed in 80's clothing for the millennial short attention span generation. It is naive but malignant because the 60's counter culture was drug-fueled peaceful utopia minded.

Today is a clear-headed and aggressively pro-censorship attempt to build "utopia" by strong-arming people to agree with a certain position. It's dangerous for everyone while equally naive.
>>
>>82198175
It depends how old you are. I'd say that has always been a common feeling when you're a young adult.

One of the dangerous things about the internet is that its a record. You can't try something out and move on from it quietly.

Your so deluded, you don't even know that hip hop originated originally as mostly a way to voice black frustration over how hard it was to escape poverty and crime in the ghetto. It was a genuine outcry for things to become better, to be able to become educated and raise the standard of life, or just simply get out of a bad situation. But white Americas and the peoples abroad where more dazzled by fantasy tales of bloodshed, sex, gore and criminal hardships which got imprinted on the succeeding youth, further propagating the problem. The desire for change was there and still is, but is kept down largely by the group more populous in America than the blacks: The whites, because they keep rewarding bad behaviour and expect those "dumb" blacks to fix the shit they can't easily fix because there's no real cultural or financial incentive in place to raise them up so to speak. Even the "WE WUZ KINGS" meme is precisely there because it was fed to them by a dumb white man.

If you look at early internet utopianism, its anonymity was supposed to be the freeing thing.

>Nobody knows I'm black/gay/fat/ugly/male/female, I can just talk about the thing I'm interested like films, fishing, knitting or whatever without the baggage

Today that attitude would be regarded as free speech extremism, anonymity is terrorism and people can't wait to tell you exactly who they are and what they eat and where they live.

I recently watched the doc series on Netflix from CNN about the 60s 70s and 80s and it's fucking incredible the change that occurred through those decades and it is FUCKING NOTHING in comparison to what has changed from the 90s to now.

The internet. That's it. The internet has dwarfed any significant technological, social, political, and by extension of all of these cultural changes that came before it. I'm about to turn 28 and I firmly believe that I have observed more radical cultural change than someone who lived through every major war of the 20th century. The seed was planted in the 80's, it began to sprout in the 90's and now it has grown into something nobody could've imagined.

When I was a kid I remember when we got the internet at school and it was going to change the world for the better according to every teacher I ever had. It's better in some ways I suppose but I'm not sure it turned out as advertised.

To be honest I don't think most people are smart enough to be able to get into university. Maybe even I wasn't, I don't know. But of course they never want to turn down money, it's a giant scam. In my case, I probably should have been taught about trade schools at a younger age as should a lot of people. I didn't want to go to grad school because I was never a great student, and I just probably would have wasted a ton of money.
So basically I got a B.A. in something I really have no faith in anymore, and was the most business oriented thing I could get because I never wanted to be a teacher.
But seriously uni is like high school 2.0 these days in my opinion, it barely matters.
