Literally all those things are false

Like I was a googoogaagaa baby in the 90s but I still remember the racism and homophobia

Also media was absolutely filled with agenda, from Captain Planet to the 10000 operation desert storm games

    I was rewatching some sitcoms from the 90s. I was absolutely shocked with the amount of jokes about race and gender. And everything was so damn snarky. People who think that the 90s were chill just forgot the details.

    I literally learned what being gay was because there was a controversy in the 90s with Falwell and Co demanding a boycott of Disneyworld over a gay pride event.

    I saw it on the news and asked my parents what "being gay" meant leading to the most uncomfortable explanation ever from my (formerly) conservative parents.

    Even if you're the "woke is when black people" type, there were a shitton of black shows in the 90s
