We did all the libertining in the 90s and 00s. They were pretty wild.

And you could argue that the overall permissiveness of society is a part of what the reactionary conservatives are violently railing against.

    I just meant in terms of repeating the 1920s, we skipped all the cool shit they did and jumped straight into the depression. I guess the wealthy though still get their hedonism similar to the 20s

    Also, I think it depends on where you were raised in the 90s/2000s. I grew up in the deep south going to a southern Baptist church, so the reactionary attitude while being a complete hypocrite behind closed doors is nothing new to me.

    Probably also why it makes me so reactionary to the reactionaries. Like I cannot accept the shit that I finally escaped from is now trying to take over the globe, and some people actually think maybe it won't be so bad/maybe they can reason with it if they fall in line.
