This was probably where Millenials as a generation had the most influence. Gen X was getting old and zoomers were still kids. I was in college then (early 2010s) and nobody really cared about politics. People were way less weird about sex. Obama gets elected and it made racism feel like this distant thing from the past.

These are very important years from a cultural and political perspective, but they were skipped over for "2016 nostalgia" and will probably only be remembered by those that lived in them.

You're a retarded revisionist nigger faggot. Millenials ruined the internet and made it retarded and gay in your image. You're the Reddit gen. The based Skeptics gen. The Sargon gen. The iDubbz gen. The pewdiepie gen. The "lets make intellectual effort posts bad and ruin intellectual discourse on the internet" gen. Also the "lets not call each naaaames, that's hurtful" gen.

You didn't even have the good taste to call people faggots because you were the faggots, you fucking faggot. You took what we created for you and you shoved it up your faggot asses.

Racism was a thing of the past UNTIL Obama got elected. That was when the media went into overdrive accusing society of being racist and still having a long way to go, because of course the only reason a person would dislike Obama was because he is black (half). Then around 2013-2014 new wave feminism started to be pushed in every form of media and classroom. Gay marriage was legalized, and politics realized they needed a new issue to divide people and picked the trans for their next project. That bathroom bill that was lambasted by the media was probably written just to push the issue

The post based or pre woke era was a brief time between like 2006 to 2012. Millennials can be divided into two groups: the older ones born in the 80s and the younger ones born in the 90s. Older millennials were the last to experience normal childhoods before the mass retardation, while younger millennials were the first to grow up with social media and were totally unprepared for it. I would say older millennials are more similar to gen X.

They are doing that now, trying to mash everything from 2014 to 2019 into a ball and calling it nostalgia for 2016, as if that was the last great year. It's totally incoherent and indicative of how culturally stuck the world has been since second term Obama.

This is determined by established convention. It's not a fallacy if that's actually the nature of the thing. You read a list of fallacies and got excited about having all this "knowledge," and never bothered to learn more about them. If I grease a ramp, ad warn you about it, you'd call that a slippery slope fallacy. If I said a Valencia orange could be used for juicing as well as a Navel orange, you'd call it a false equivocation. If I used an insult in the course of a valid and sound logical refutation, you'd call it an ad hominem.

Yeah, that is true. But at the same time, I remember genuinely having this thought in like 2010 of

>how the fuck are politicians going to get elected in a few years? No one cares about this shit

all we wanted to do was party rock, and play some Black Ops with the boys.

It all went downhill from there. I think 2017 was the last somewhat good year.

I knew it would always get worse each year, but it feels like the decline really kicked into high-gear right before Covid.
I mean, has there even been a good fucking song since 2020? Okay, forget good, even a fucking catchy one!?? This decade has nothing. The movies suck, the games suck, the music sucks, the people suck, there’s more immigrants than ever, everyone is on the verge of being homeless, No identity, nothing memorable, nothing exciting, NOTHING.

We've been in the woke era for several decades. Woke just didn't become a term until late 10's to now. Feminism is by definition woke. Given that we've had Women's suffrage for more than a century it's accurate to say that we have been in the woke era for at least one century.
>>
>>533747698
It's not. This is an afterthought you're fixated on, likely for an "I love trains" kind of reason. Yes, I understand that feels neat and orderly and sensible. No, that doesn't mean that it's therefore what they're called. I bet you call large roadways "driveways" and the place your car stays in front of your house a "parkway," too.

Pre-Woke era was just subliminal wokeism. In fact the rot started in 2007 once normalfags got access to the Internet thanks to the smartphones. The woke era started in 2012.

King Nigger made things worst, including "racism." He also legalize faggot marriage, which ended up being catalyse leading to clown world. Everything's been shit since faggot marriage was legalized.

recently i read a substack article called the genology of woke, in it the writer says that

1. 2010s wokeness wasnt original

2. wokeness has been a thing for decades even centuries

3. 1930s, 1960s, and late 80s early 90s were woke

4. in the pre modern era it was the protestant evangelicals who were woke, who invented the temperance movement, abolition, etc


its a long read but very informative

Obama repealed some rule that prevented the government from propagandizing its own citizens. That's basically right when all the insane woke shit started.
Also, the crazy woke bullshit all started online. Like it was weird the extent to which, even in the most famously liberal areas of the country, people were not on the woke level of zounds of anonymous internet users swarming reddit in the early 2010's. They basically brainwashed a generation of high schoolers, then older generations only half hopped on the bandwagon later.

Woke started in the 1830's with the feminist movement with a few woke authors existing in the end of the 18th century.

Ironically believing in that fake news lie. He wasn't going out for a pack of Skittles. He broke up with his girlfriend then started breaking into peoples' homes. That nigger was breaking into people's homes & Zimmerman did the needful taking out that criminal retarded feral nigger. Look, here's Trayvon flaunting his gun while smoking weed. You can even see his tattoos. Media used a photo of him when he was 12 to fool the masses, including normalfags like (you), & you fell for it. Trayvon the nigger was a crime who got exactly what he deserved.
>>
>>533747771
I remember vividly telling people to ignore this shit because giving attention to literally who tweets is going to make the problem worse and it did. I don’t believe any of those accounts or tweets were genuine, just social media brainwashing tactics. Have a bunch of bots spam an idea, and then write articles pretending there’s some movement or that people believe whatever shit they’re trying to push. If you get riled up and attack it, you draw a line in the sand and polarize people, and any pussy who didn’t like conservative rhetoric just went further to the left

2010s wokeness started because of the 2008 economic crash, which led to PMC whites no longer having a free ride to a cushy job, which led to occupy wall street, which morphed into an identity politics obsessed retardation known as woke, which created a reaction from the right called the alt right which trump surfed to become president

It is incredible though that the intelligence agencies actually respected such rules in any sense. Even if they weren't respecting them completely before, they did seem to go buck wild after that, so the rule did enforce some level of restraint.

another thing is that each wave of wokeness in history always leads to a reaction, the red scare, the silent majority voting in nixon, trump winning.

wokeness is symbolic, it changed names of schools and tears down statues, it doesnt actually change the material conditions of the poor, fights for better pay, workers rights

You can accuse Gen Xers to be fatalist, nihilistic, cynical, destructive, but they are rather consistent and reliable in that regard, and so-called 'equal-opportunity offenders', i.e. they insult everyone the same, without discriminating upon gender, race or whatever.

This is from 1993. The very oldest millennials were 12 then, gen x is the generation being dedicated and it was prevalent enough already to have made it far enough into pop culture to be mocked. Boomers were the ones who behaved the way you're describing and were the ones doing the mocking.

is what every faggot says about the time period they were a kid in. I assure you, identity politics was a thing in the 2000s, smug, pearl clutching leftism was a thing, blatant left leaning, moralizing propaganda was in all of our media, the difference is you were too young to care, and social media didn't yet exist to magnify it into every corner of every conversation across the internet.

The past 20 years have not been noticeably different from each other.

People bitching about "MUH WOKE" can never actually point to any laws or incidents where they personally were affected by this cultural phantom. Trump getting elected did not even change anything meaningfully because there was simply never anything there to really change.

What exactly is different now that Republicans control all three branches of Government? Gays still exist, Trannies still exist, minorities are still complaining about racism.

Literally nothing has changed in the last 20 years. Its all a shill psyop to get conservative leaning people fearful and riled up so they get out to vote for fake non-issues. AND THEN SURPRISE SURPRISE!!! They win the election and... Nothing changes.

Sort of like you know how we were at war with TERRORISM!!! for 20 years and it was the biggest scariest boogeyman ever that required 11 TRILLION DOLLARS to fight. Then the richfags decided that we were done playing in the sandbox and suddenly magically for no reason at all the news stopped mentioning terrorism, and we stopped caring about color alerts. Gee I wonder why that happened? I wonder why we stopped giving a shit about terrorists and started pissing our pants about Trannys using the wrong bathroom. Sorta seems like one of those things should have a bigger priority but nope. We found something new to be afraid of.
