LOL Fuuuuuck this dude. As an adult for most of it, the 90s were fucking terrible. They sucked so bad by 1998 we were all literally 100% nostalgic for 1985. Imagine the ENTIRE Western world now being nostalgic for 2012/2013?

Get the fuck outta here. What a fucking loser. What else is he sad for? The lack of Creed on the radio?

2012 sounds wonderful compared to this

I really miss cell phones not being a thing and there not being surveillance state shit like ring doorbells everywhere, personally.

[-] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 15 points 11 months ago

Yeah its really hard to justify the benign aspects of consumer products like ring cameras against it invariably being used by an increasingly militant surveillance state.

I dunno, I do actually miss all the days that happened before that one in 2015 when Dumpfuck rode his yellow metal escalator down to the lobby to yell about brown people.

[-] Wheaties@hexbear.net 12 points 11 months ago

but it was the policies and conditions of the preceding years that gave Trump such futile ground! The continuing occupation in the middle east with clear goals or exit, bailing out the banks and not the people who lost their homes, almost all the economic recovery and growth after '08 being concentrated to the top 10% of owners!

What good is nostalgia for a past, when it is what evolved into the present we so bemoan?

Both Bush and his son preceeded him. Even from a radlib perspective, this is revisionist.

Oh wait, you guys like Bush and even fucking Cheyney now cause they said orange man bad. Also it's not "yelling about brown people" if you say terrorists instead of DEI/woke I guess monke-rage

You miss when America had the ability to plausibly deny its latent bigotry and aggression?

I'm glad it's out in the open now.
