I’m risking sounding like an old fart or loser but I feel that the holidays used to feel more warm, merry, exciting, etc. than in recent years.What do you think? And why?
>>524308779You should make a movie about how christmas was better in the 80s. Call it "A Christmas Story 4"
>>524308779>What do you think? And why?We don't have families anymore, much less any friends.Jews and their feminist/multiculturalist poison did this
>>524308779>loser??????? is the implication here that you must always be happier year-on-year because time=progress and line go up? that's so fucked
>>524308779More and larger families in the past. Also, without the internet, it was really how you got to spend time with extended families.
>>524308779>decorated not just the house but also the streetThat would be impossible today. Niggers would destroy it within 1 day.
>>524308779You lick snizz.
I just want to go back bros
>>524308779Social media and The surveillance bolshevik tranny hellscape that we live in have each made everything absolutely miserable in every respect. It is what it is. It will stay like this until the jews are expelled.
>>524308779You are just old. People in their teens and early 20's are just fine. As you get closer to death and further from your childhood everything gets darker
People can't afford it anymore.
>>524309351>As you get closer to death and further from your childhood everything gets darkerIt doesn't have to be. We should just surround ourselves with our nostalgia and shut everything off. Grew up in the 2000s? Then make your room look like pic-related, only play 2000s games and watch 2000s media. Stop using social media. Stop paying attention to e-celeb slop. You get the picture.
>>524309351Shut the fuck up and quit gaslighting you jewish faggot. Everything is measurably far worse today.
>>524309351That comes from more and more exposure to the true nature of the world. Fortunately I got all that bullshit out of the way before middle school.
>>524309351Majority of homes are owned by the order generations who are to bitter and old to do anything anymore. Younger people can't afford to do it since they have less disposable income and they aren't having children. Towns and corporations have all become jewed so they barely decorate anymore. A lot of rental don't allow you putting up decorations on the outside either. Everything has become bland, gray, and jewish.
>>524309351>People in their teens and early 20's are just fineIt was abnormal for someone to spend time alone in festivities, right now it's a common thing
>>524308779It's fake and gay unless you have kids.
>>524309568Boom have destroyed the family unit. Screwing over their own children for a few more years if fun and me time.
>>524309460That is one way. If I had a basement I would do something like this.>>524309497>gaslighting>in a thread made by an old person who can't accept as he gets old shit sucksMy zoom nephew has nostalgia for the mid 2010's acting like it was the greatest era ever. This is just how life is. Can us millennials please not devolve into whiny retarded boomers?>>524309502Pretty much when you start working and living on your own you see how shit the world is. I used to go to summer vacations to my parents vacation home on a lake it was a yearly ritual as a kid then when I got a job I was like "oh, I can't do that anymore......maybe for a week at most due to my responsibilities.......that part of my life is over" and it just gets worse after that>>524309560The thing is younger people find ways to still make these times special regardless. I have cousins who were in the balkans war as kids and they have positive nostalgia for that time.>>524309568If you have your parents you aren't alone. Things just changed.
>>524308779The magic of Christmas is gone once you turn 18. You don't get big presents anymore and have to clock into the wagie cagie job the next day.Christmas just feels like another random day of the year now.
>>524309718>Pretty much when you start working and living on your own you see how shit women areFixed that for you. As a kid you are naive and gullible and think they are just like us. Which they are in childhood. But after a certain point after puberty all women start believing that men are subhuman and exist to serve them. They will never see you as their equal again. Husbands are seen as a complete joke. They respect you if you are a violent drug dealer who has several felonies.
The Erected Obelisk therefore represents dominion seized, considering the sun doesn't set on this Animal Farm preparing its slaves for the world that is to cum because the fact remains that the cattle will forever be Built for le Big Black Cock for all is ritual made to nourish the great egregore."You will swallow and you will be happy"
I've always had the theory that if you just physically and mentally surround yourself with your nostalgia then you would have a better peace of mind in life. Just because the years go by why do you have to change as well? I guess some people are just slaves to convenience. You need a smartphone that does everything. You need a TV that does everything. You need a high end PC. You need the newest car. Here's an idea, stop needlessly spending money and go back. You can go back to pic-related, or any era you have personal nostalgia for, physically and mentally. Your perception defines your reality. As far as you fags know I'm typing this from the past.>>524309957As long as you have family that gathers around and you put lights up and a Christmas tree, then you still have a Christmas.
>>524309718>My zoom nephew has nostalgia for the mid 2010's acting like it was the greatest era ever. This is just how life is. Can us millennials please not devolve into whiny retarded boomers?because every year is objectively worse than the previous. Has nothing to do with aging you worthless degenerate faggot.
>>524310111>objectivelyin terms of nostalgia no not at all. People will always look back at their childhood with fondness
>>524310051>As long as you have family that gathers around and you put lights up and a Christmas tree, then you still have a ChristmasI'm spending Christmas with my family this year but it doesn't feel exciting anymore like it was when I was a kid. Idk if its anhedonia, or just being more in-tune with reality. Like I can see my family any day of the year. It feels more like Thanksgiving 2 than Christmas now. also doesn't really snow where I live so that could be contributing to it too.
>>524310268Do many of you just not understand as you get older these feelings naturally change? I genuinely feel like this site is damaging some of you emotionally. Like I constantly see repetitive threads on all the boards talking about old events, old content creators, old stories, old memories and it becomes clear that many of you just can't move on and live to chase highs you will never get again.
>>524309460>only play 2000s games and watch 2000s mediaI already do because everything made post 2010 is pure trash!
>>524310170That may be true but as of recent years zoomers who were never born in the 90s or 2000s idolize those years. I think we can objectively compare modern eras regardless of nostalgia. I've seen boomers who grew up in the 70s say their favorite era was the 90s. >>524310268Well I mean I think it's less exciting as an adult because Christmas is just inherently exciting for children getting all sorts of presents like toys. Even back then adults would always get like one or two things. Even if it just doesn't feel the same to you, think of how lonely and depressing it would feel if you had no one at all. No family or friends around. Even if you went and hung up lights and bought yourself something, it's not Christmas without a family.
>>524308779Some years ago we had plausible deniability that 90% of the people on this planet were irredeemable niggercattle. We could carry on pretending that basically everybody was sort of the same, decent, and could get along.Then covid happened and 9/10 revealed themselves to be retarded livestock without a shred of humanity left.We cannot go back. There is no going back.
>>524310455>as of recent years zoomers who were never born in the 90s or 2000s idolize those yearsIdolizing the past is not a new thing. We have been idolizing the 80's for 30 years and counting. Also this is completely anecdotal. I think many millennials again a generation I am apart of can't accept that younger generations are happy with what they grew up regardless how stupid it looks like to us and I am trying not to be a "get off my lawn" boomer retard towards zoomers and Gen A but I am noticing my fellow millennials are not the same
>>524308779The holidays were better decades ago because communication was harder."Absence makes the heart grow fonder."It used to mean something to gather around with family. Nowadays it doesn't matter. You can reach your family in an instant, hearing their voices and seeing their faces in real time. So who cares about getting together with family. You already know what they're up to, they post about it on social media all the time.
go touch some grass (or snow for that matter). if all you do is goon in your cave and fantasize about the past, youre fucking doomed beyond recovery.
>>524308779Jews and brown people fucked it all up, like they fuck up everything else.
>>524310170You are a gaslighting jewish nigger. Literally EVERY single aspect of society and culture today is worse than it was in the 2010s, which was worse than the 2000s, which was worse than the 90s, which was worse than the 80s. This has nothing to do with getting older or nostalgia. Zoomers are going to look fondly at the 2010s because it was still relatively better to the post-2020 hellscape we live in today.
>>524310414Good. And there's so much variety back then that you would never get bored. People are so trapped to FOMO these days it's sad. >>524310572I think we should embrace idolizing the past for our own mental health. Everyone should just say "fuck you" to current year and mentally and physically regress into their personal nostalgic era.
>>524310754You are some retard in his 30's or maybe 40's never did anything with his life, childless, maybe still living at home projecting onto all of us because your only positive times were when you were young and you never did anything with your life so you project doomerism to everyone else. Meanwhile other people your age who started families are making new positive memories with their families.>>524310769I disagree if you do it too much you aren't creating a future. You become one of these retarded funko pop millennials
>>524310769living in some nostalgic bubble isn't going to fix shit, that isn't going to give you an ethnically homogenous society to live in or rid ourselves of jewish central banking and the economic devastation it causes the middle class. It's just a form of regression/escapism and is exactly why millennials are obsessed with Nintendo and Legos or playing WoW classic for the billionth time.
>>524308779Look at airport security in the opening of Home Alone, imaging being able to run to your gate like that instead of TSA drones telling you to take every electronic out of your bag and that you can’t have more than 3oz of a liquid in your bag, just so you have to buy overpriced shit after the gate.
>>524309163>dual CD drives>stack of CD-R spindles>winXP>cheap Discman on the deskGood shit. Piracy is making a comeback with how Jewish the streaming services are becoming. Know what I never got on my music CDs? Ads.Makes me love shopping in Japan. Hi-Fi audio and physical media is still very much a thing here.
>>524308779Decades ago virtually everybody celebrated Christmas and all that involved like decorations, the food, the music, the ambience, the season cheer. And it was Christmas with the 'Christ' in it, not "Xmas", not "Happy Holidays", no "Happy Hanukah and Kwanzaa" because the country was still overwhelming majority White and Christian; today roughly 1/3 don't celebrate Christmas and another 1/3 do celebrate it but it's not the exact same version as we know it. And because it was a still a largely Christian nation they were still allowed to play the traditional songs in public places, like Joy to the World, Little Drummer Boy, Come All Ye Faithful, O Holy Night or even Silent Night. Go anywhere public that plays music like a supermarket or a fast food place or a big office and the only music they have is Frosty the Snowman, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer and many of the modern songs like Mariah Carey's song that are only superficially about Christmas. They cannot play the classics because they might offend somebody. Modern Christmas movies remove all references to Jesus even, the moral of the story being that Santa brings presents and that's what the meaning of Christmas is. Two examples on top of my mind are Arthur Christmas replacing 'round yon virgin mother and child' verse or Christmas Chronicle walking by a church service but they're singing O Tannenbaum for some reason. Even the adult Christmas movies from decades ago like Christmas Vacation showed them singing a Christian song and the nativity scene in their home.
>>524308779Yes they were better. Less doom & gloom back then.
>>524308779There's a neighborhood in my city that goes all out with Christmas decorations and it was a tradition to walk or drive through it and see all the lights. Now tht area just gets flooded with traffic from beaners who leave trash everywhere including beer cans, blast shitty music, and gwt in fights and even shootings. Same goes for the malls. Yeah, Christmas has not been the same since the demographic disaster.
>>524310877you are jewish filth, having children is exactly why I know how far everything has fallen, my children can't have a life as good as the one I had because of the total havoc you semitic vermin spawn.
>>524309080You clearly don’t live in a white area. This is still very common.
>>524311060You are a pathetic loser who never made anything of your life and instead of working on that you come to 4chan to yell at zoomers and gen A about how your video games growing up were better than theirs. Get a hold of your life you pathetic fuck
>>524311057its threefold, the root of all three is the jew. Demographic replacement (brown barbarian horde), monetary policy (usurious jewish fiat central banking), and cultural rot (feminism + negrofication).
>>524309460You’re right and based choice on the IntelliMouse. I have one for my Win98 machine (eMachines P3 with Voodoo3 and SB AWE card).I do think there’s good modern applications and adaptations for old tech. Good example is pic rel, FIIO’s upcoming CD player. You get nice quality audio playback with various output connections (including optical), and modern convenience like USB-C + Bluetooth.Similar to replacing original gameboys with modern IPS screens and rechargeable batteries + modern USB charging.
>>524308779Yeah, here's a post on Twitter of a mall in Minneapolis in the 1980s Christmastime compared today. https://x.com/vincempls/status/1989098696668234068pic related is how it looked in the 80s, pic in subsequent post is today
>>524311224pic related, how it's going now
>>524311107
>>524308779Bro they shut down the world famous Christmas show at the Eiffel tower over safety concerns, of course it's worse. Also everyone is a piece of shit now and PoS don't get into the Christmas spirit.
>>524311224>>524311239online shopping changed things thats life. There are malls in Mexico and Russia that still look like that because their online shopping is limited. >no its niggersniggers existed in the 80's too when that picture was taken>>524311243>"I failed in life should I try to improve things get a job leave my parents home? No! I will go to 4chan and lecture younger people about how their lives suck"You make us all look bad retard
>>524311224>>524311239Equilibrium is one of my favorite movies. Kind of in a similar vein as The Matrix but less techy and more straight dystopian.The idea is that the state has outlawed anything “artistic” or that could invoke emotions and everything is drab and brutalist. I think it’s by design, these corps going flat boring design. I think it even extends into the hyperbright LEDs everywhere instead of warm amber street lamps.In my house I use warm lighting for most things, even my home office is 4000K max and that’s the most “white” light I use. Light (color) and sound is used to shape human behavior.
>>524311311I don’t think it’s just online shopping. Here in Asia (Japan and SE Asia) markets and decorative stores are very much a thing. Even non holidays there’s just stuff everywhere to make it not bland and overly sanitized.
>>524311376Japan isn't as heavy with online shopping as we are which we do double the amount of online shopping compared to t hem
>>524308779They didYou're not imagining itLife sucks now, there's no magic and we can't go back we can never go back. It's over
>>524308779Incandescent light bulbs
>>524311467I think it’s also that Japan has a huge domestic market for most things. And people like to see and feel before they buy.There’s also a huge second hand market for lots of things, especially appliances due to their recycling laws (which charge a considerable fee).I love shopping here, tons of like-new used things for dirt cheap. Picked up some Sony equipment for 30% what it would cost me back in the states (assuming I could even find it).
It used to be better. No question.Does anyone Christmas shop at malls anymore? Remember the smell? The toy stores? All the little odd shops that woild pop up before Christmas?Little nick nacks and novelties that weren't just one in a billion options now browsable online?Going to book stores. Doing a day long outing. Visiting friends and family, and doing nice afternoon chill sessions at your uncle's place?The smells were different. The homes were warmly lit and colored in rich dark greens and auburn reds. The TVs were small and the whole living room wasn't oriented toward some giant nigger screen.People weren't distracted. They weren't just itching to get back to their online habits. The kids would chatter and whisper and run off to play.Families were bigger. Decor was busier and interesting.If you missed it, this sounds trivial. I assure you it was not.

>>524311311>online shopping changed things thats life. There are malls in Mexico and Russia that still look like that because their online shopping is limited.>>no its niggers>niggers existed in the 80's too when that picture was takenIt's not really niggers or online shopping. That's part of it, but most of it is a direct decision by various corporations. Even if in person retail shopping was half of what it was years ago, they could still make malls nice. The fact is that most big malls started to die out rapidly in the early 2000s. Malls were popular in the 90s and maybe even around 2000 but by 2006 or so hardly anyone ever went to a mall unless they had to. They were largely replaced by "outdoor shopping centers" which were basically outdoor malls that were worse in every way. Like super upscale strip malls that could be somewhat walkable. The idea of the mall was that there would be big anchor department stores that would draw you in when you needed clothes or appliances, and then you would spend time wandering the mall. The food court, the little shops, it was all designed to get you to spend more time at the mall so that you could spend more money. That's why most malls had movie theaters and sometimes even arcades. Even teenagers making minimum wage had enough money to go have fun at the mallsFact is that the economy really started to get fucked immediately after 9/11. That's why George W. Bush literally told people to "go to the mall" when he was asked what Americans can do to help our country in the new war on Terror. The government saw the writing on the wall then. 9/11 made me people scared to be in crowds and made people more stingy with their money. And the economy itself just got worseNo one wanted to wander around a mall and buy things for fun. These were replaced by outdoor shopping centers, where you could park more closely to the one particular store you wanted to go to, get in and out quickly, instead of wandering and spending more
>>524308779last era in which Christmas was organic to white societies is the mid 1980s.Jew brainwashing and racial substitution has gone too far to have any real feeling other than despair.
It's the same thing every year. Easter, valentines, Halloween, Christmas. EtcIt just get repetitive and boring
>>524311044You are a fag. The word Chr*st makes no difference to it. We never called it that and it doesn't diminish it whatsoever. Sucks for you that you have a Jew's name attached to it.
>>524308779>i preferred christmas when id get presents off my family and thought santa was realYea, me too. Now i just have my scumbag 25% brother here with his 5th child with the 3rd woman singing to himself how this is the best christmas ever to cope with the fact itsbhis worst. He left his previous woman for her eldest daughter, had a child with her, and taken her out of the family house. He seems to have totally forgotten his 4 other children and has fuck all to do with them. He brought a fucking newborn here with his dumb cunt girlfriend who cuts herself all the time and has a nose ring. Its the most depressing shit ever so ive been in the bedroom all day and wont be sitting with them to eat.

>>524308779It used to be the most SOVL time of the year, everything felt magical. You got older and nothing got better.
>>524308779You know why
>>524308779Call me a Boomer all you want. Movies, video games, and animation were better in the 90s/80s than anything post early 2000s. 90s video game didn't suffer from major constant patches, glitches/errors, Day One DLC, microtransactions etc. Movies were actually movies first, with no clear bias political agenda that was clearly intended to marketed first and to drive out loyal old fans for new modern ones. Western animation actually catered to kids and wanted unique character designs that appealed to children instead of adults who want to indoctrinate children.
>>524311286The joys of mass immigration.
>>524308779Yes literally everything was better if you go back in time. We are in a declining falling empire and everyone is poor. Movies are shit, games are shit, hobbies are more regulated and shit, you cant start a business to compete with big ones, voting doesnt matter, everyone is scamming

>>524308779the holidays feel different now in part because of the constant stream of information coming from phones, computers, television, radio, and digital billboards. another factor is how divided we’ve become as a society human consciousness is sensitive to the emotional state of those around us, subtly receiving it from others even without direct interaction. as anonymity increases, that collective awareness becomes muted, and shared moments lose some of thier warmth.
Merry Christmas

>>524308779It's called CHRISTMAS.
>>524308779Basically they've been destroying family structure and social fabric of society for decades. They've been cancelling Christmas for 25 years. A significant population don't even celebrate Christmas. We've reached a point it has lost meaning, and become a generic "holiday" another day, where you buy food, drink, and tatt.

>>524308779I think COVID killed a lot of the older folks who still kept the tradition alive, then the subsequent trade war, economic downturn, and moral decline of the US killed any remaining Christmas spirit.
>>524308779>economy good>holidays goodWow I wonder
>>524308779I see reddit is in full swing today to demoralize pol on Christmas
>>524308779You are onto something. Part of it is nostalgia, but the other part is the dilution of too many things to list here. Family, shared monoculture, etc. A lot of this is driven by corporations. Thanksgiving has been plundered with Black Friday, Cyber Monday, etc. Christmas around me is still treated reverently, but I can see it going the way of Thanksgiving in the next 10 years.
>>524308779Just as there is no longer a United States, only the economic zone of America. There is no longer a Christmas only the end-of-the-year commercing season.Just 20-25 years ago Sales were Christmas sales, Movies on tv were Christmas movies. Towns had Christmas festivals and Christmas functions. Thanks to kikes, everything has become a Winter festival or Holiday celebration. It's all under the guise of inclusiveness, but I'm sure it's their hatred of Christ seeing as how they've been popularizing the shortening to "X-mas" since the 1800s.Kikes even Tried to Kike Charlie Brown. Look up the making of the peanuts Christmas special. The original special was supposed to be different, but they wanted to strip any mention of Christ from the script. This made Schultz so mad that he rewrote the whole script making the focal point Linus's speech in the center. Removing that bit would make the whole special unwatchable.I'm old enough to remember in the 90s/early 2000s when black Friday was billed as the "After Thanksgiving Christmas Sale"Now the stores are early cycling holidays. Local stores put up Christmas stuff before Halloween even got here. My local Walmart took down all the Christmas aisles and put up Valentines Day stuff nearly a week before Christmas.Just as everything else, this part of American culture has fallen to capitalistic functionalism.>>524310572It's not idealization. The culture has changed. I remember singing Silent Night, and O' Little Town of Bethlehem in public school. Now the entire school system would be tarred and feathered for that. Side Note: Merry Christmas Anons.

>>524309351Stfu. Being young is showing up late to a party and then telling everyone why their collective opinion that the party is shit is irrelevant 67. >>524308779Everyone knows that 2026-2030 will suck hard, and Christmas 2025 had the Epstein Files dumped on it, whether that timing was subversive or not (not incriminating Massie), so every adult is aware of the pedo rings controlling the government, it darkens the holiday by proxy. And look at the big holiday movies, Avatar 3, a Zionist biography of a ping pong playing sociopath, and typical trash about a homeless buxom murderer who becomes the housemaid of an evil white male where a Mexican "chad" groundskeeper and his tortured ex wife save the day. Israel and Ukraine wars will not cease this decade either. The way to tell this is not subjective is to watch televised Christmas specials from the 1970s and 80s, where celebrities had a repertoire for singing and comedy, and networks spent the works on production which was the work of talented craftsman and designers, and you'd have one Hannukah joke at most. >>524308978This is true sadly.

It's a 50/50 now though on us getting a green Christmas which is rather lame, it was consistently snowy when I was young. Annual Rambo+National Lampoons isn't the same without my unc. Personally, i'd go back somewhere between 95-2004 if I could.Anyways, Merry Christmas and a happy new year.
>>524308779I don't remember the last time Christmas felt like Christmas. Everything just kinda blends together nowadays.

>>524308779If your family has money Christmas is always nice. My family has been having nothing but nice Christmases since the 1980s because of this.

Commercialism and narcissism are what our society reward. It's what the youth have been raised on for generations. Wealth and greed are now God, they make you better than everyone else. Giving is done to be kind, they are done to show off.

>>524308779Lack of community, culture, cohesion. Holidays are a communal recognition of the seasons. Holidays require a sense of community, culture and cohesion to work. When you are lacking that, they lose their purpose.

>>524308779Christmas was a big thing to me when I was a kid but ever since then it's always just been another day to me. I don't notice any major difference.
>>524308779I'm almost 34 and yes, they were. There were less niggers around, less jeets, less kikes. Plus my mother was still around so things were a lot better then. I don't even want to hear about the fucking holidays or hear anyone saying Merry Christmas

>>524309163>no lotion bottlenot accurate.
>>524309067How does the internet change how you spend time with extended families? Are you implying they are less likely to come because of zoom and facetime? They had telephones back then you know, if a family member didn’t make it they made long distance calls and passed the phone around. The internet just makes this a little fancier but it’s still the same thing and not a replacement for being there. Some autistic weirdos thought VR was going to do that (kek).
>>524309080There's a bunch of houses on my street all lit up and decorated.My problem with it is they all use shitty LED lights now, so they just look soulless and cheap, and (especially the blue lights) are hard to look at.
>>524308779Because as you get older it turns from something fun into something you have to do. The focus used to be on you but as you get older the focus turns outward onto other people. So you on one level you enjoy it because you didn’t have to do anything and you get free shit from everyone, and on another level (when you start having to buy shit for others) you realize how materialistic it always was and you just didn’t see it. This is called “growing up” welcome to adulthood anon.

>>524308779You're right but it began more than a decade ago. The last best Christmases were in the 90s. There's definitely far less red, green and white now then in the previous decades. There's less Christmas decorations, Whites are cucks who say "Happy Holidays" to others (even Whites) for fear of offending shitskin Muslims and Jews.Best part of the year is getting a Sears or JCPenney Christmas Catalogue and going through the video games/toys sections.[Source: non-White grew up in the 90s]
>>524308779I think as the older generations die off it has got less merry and family traditions fade and change.
>>524332028glownigger, have fun watching your wife get railed for some shekels
>>524328944>chretusNo, it's christus, which is a translation of the hebrew title meshiach.
>>524331560No, pic related is 3 generations
>>524309163This was your average 30 yo back then
>>524331911there most definitely is a difference.the older styles can be nice. a mix looks looks ok.some classics are hard to improve on. for me its the bubble bulb. >>524332251my grandmother had silver gravy bowls and everything with china ECT, when she died the boomers went with paper plates and cakes were less homemade super dank and more grocery store/factory. >>524332338but its his son.... lol.
>>524308779>wait to have kids, goy!People started waiting until their 30s to have kids and now there are no more great grandparents at holidays. 18-22 is the best age to have kids because they get to grow up knowing their great grandparents and sometimes a great great grandparent
Pure nostalgia and failure to launch. For example, I see a lot of millennials crying because Christmas changes once their grandparents died. Some even say there IS "more space at the table". Something missing. But that is because this society has corrupted everything. Old people die and new people should come. You should have kids. Your parents become the grandparents and you become the father figure. But sometimes It feels like we are the last men. The cycle has stopped. And now It Will be something different. The father won't become the grandfather. The son won' become the father. And there won't be any kids. It Will be just immigrants. We are the last men of history.
>>524332623Encouraging people to wait to have kids or even to not have kids at all was a horrendous crime against humanity
>>524332623I also wouldn't say 'failure to launch' as much as 'the torch was never passed'
>>524331919>it turns from something fun into something you have to do. Load of bullshit. Most people talk about that festive Christmas ambiance, the omnipresence of Christmas colors and decorations, the "Thank you for shopping at Sears and have Merry Christmas" from a smiling blonde haired, blue-eyed girl working at the cash register. You had to live through it. Now you have a hideous fat Somalian cow give "I want you dead" look. You're an idiot.
>>524308779You mean when we had more money and opportunity?No, it's definitely better, now.
>>524308779none of the people i asked at work put up a treezero out of five
There is noticeably less homes with Christmas decorations and lights on front yard trees now than in the 90s in my childhood neighborhood. Significantly more non-White immigrants living there too.

>>524308779the wild capitalism in which an individual is reduced to a mere consumer is failingthe system needs to adaptwhat you're seeing now are the consequences of the transition without an opposing system
>>524308779It was a comfy 2025 Christmas, though I don't know if we'll ever see Jizzus Christ make a triumphant return, I am happy for the many years we shared together. I see the nostalgia and the Lamentations so I'll just point out a few nice things> Nerd culture is practically en vogue now and techno/EDM is basically the dominant form of pop music presuming you're not into the latest hip-hop adjacent FoTM> Retro computing is hugely popular and there are giant ecosystems of cool x86 and arm shit to fuck with> AI can basically enable you to build any software startup with minimal coding skills and probably make decent money with nothing more than ideas> The usual access to huge computing resources etc> Woke culture seems on the way out> Anime is accepted and even cool or at the very least a thriving subculture > Metal and other previous edge case music genres are now pretty acceptable> You can 3d print perfect copies of prototype stuff or hard to find parts in your garage for like $200> You can get PCBs and other parts custom made for peanuts> There is a thriving subculture and online community for just about everything Growing up in the late 90s to 2000s if you did literally anything other than skateboard poorly, shoot hoop and listen to blink 182 you were a pariah. Nobody knew what anime was and if they did they assumed it was just jap p*do cartoons. Your choices were that set or the 8 weird kids in the corner of the lunchroom who comprised the heavy metal kids, anime nerds, and gays. Now being a queer is probably more normal than being straight. Not that I think it's a good thing, but at least you're not made nearly as miserable now if you're a queer anime fan than when I was coming up. Imagine when I was in HS: plebbit and other community based places simply didn't exist, so you'd have to find your fellow anime or tabletop fag friends in an actual physical store/library/whatever or in some crazy arcane IRC channel/BBS. Those were the hard times

>>524333829>jizzus christDidn't it come out that he faked that whole thing for years?
>>524308779Its mobile devices and social media, it ruined everything.
>>524310170How can this be true when the 50's are pretty objectively called the best decade when pretty much none of us on the internet were around to experience them?
>>524308978This, to add to this post. Even people that have families those families dysfunctional, divided and broken. There's nothing to celebrate.Some people view Christmas as religious and a lot of Americans are not religious anymore. So they don't do anything anymore. Multiculturalism. Since we are being bombarded with a lot of Indians they don't celebrate Christmas neither.

>>524334474>the 50's are pretty objectively called the best decadewtf are you talking about? who calls them that?
When I moved to my new house and was going through all our old stuff, I found a J.C. Penney Christmas catalog from 1996. I keep it around and look at it regularly. It's like taking a little glimpse back into a better world.
>>524334869I wish I could have fond the ones from other years too, but I guess we threw them out (this one was randomly stuffed in some out of the way location and forgotten about). I used to look forward to looking through the toy section each year as a kid.
>>524328239This is the way
No. I like seeing Christmas trees.
>>524331919Different perspective when you see how the sausage is made. A great many women pulled everything together for Christmas and worked so hard they couldn't enjoy it. Entire videos of them talking about how they aren't putting themselves through this anymore. Half the spirit went with them.
>>524309011Yes, it should get better, that's the whole point lol. If life is getting worse every year, then you've lost, unfortunately.
>>524324048>that’s what life is all about, spiritual progressso spiritual progress is just about making yourself happy? sounds retarded>>524335489you are aware that the passage of years leads to your mental and physical degradation, ending in death?
31st of December is coming closer and I am a lonely 35 yo incel. I don't feel good, bros
>>524335628Idk what to tell you pal, kill yourself i guess?
>>524308779Of course. Decades ago, I was a kid.Of course, even discarding the amount or types of gifts that a kid would recieve compared to an adult (who would give instead), it's too goddamned commercialized, and there is a heavily emphasis on getting rid of Christ.
>>524335785Stop trying the traditional methods. Go read to old folks at the home. Fat booty nurse strikes up conversation that's really nice anon. Yeah, I sit with shelter dogs too to give them comfort. I'm there every Tuesday at 3, come if you like they really enjoy the company. She shows and you two end up at the park walking a shelter dog making it's day and she learns more about you because she is intrigued. A great many women aren't seeking to get plowed by bull. Some just really want a male human with depth. Create that depth from your heart and the world opens up to you.
>>524336004>>524335881EVERYBODY START CHRISTMASMAXXING IMMEDIATELY. THIS IS NOT A DRILLStart stealing and become a real Santa this year. Every day could be Christmas day from here on. First thing you should do is quit your worthless wagie job. Don't bother applying for benefits, welfare or any other government assistance unless you really can't help yourself. I personally prefer to also GHOSTMAXX, no properties in my name, no hand outs, no benefits, no taxes, just living in the shadows of society and outside of the system as much as I can, but I digress. Simply take everything you need from big corporations, redistribute it to those in need then enjoy life. Hit their jew warehouses and megastores and become an honest Santa. Make sure to post about it and encourage more people to become Santas like you. Once enough people do this, their system collapses. Also always remember how over half the population got vaxxed and sided with the government? make them pay and enjoy it too. This is how you get back at the jews, the governments, the corporations, the normie cattle and everybody else who wronged you.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTV2S2OtrfM [Embed]There is nothing more that jews and their wagie cattle fear than you anon becoming the real Santa Claus in this life, never forget that.

My job fills me with endless satisfaction knowing what I produce makes peoples lifes worse than mine ever was at it's lowest point. allow your sorrow/rage/hatred to become your companion instead of you're ruler and your life will be much more palatable. it will give you strength you never knew you had.

>>524336606Very jewish but I kekked either way
Suicide rates cratered through the last half of the 90s and started going back up after 9/11. Anyone who tries to tell you that wasn't one of the best times to live is full of shit and deliberately trying to mislead you.
>>524337758Unfortunately I was born at that time so I have no memories pre-911. Christmas was really that different huh?
>>524336405you are degeneracy maxxing this Xmas right? https://x.com/kevinvdahlgren/status/2004282276008677521 I cant look away. we really must save Xmas.
>>524337758The 90's were probably the last good decade. It had a good mix of old and new world with the technology that was out at the time. People in general had a far better outlook for the future. I've always said the clothing that's worn is a pretty good metric for how life is going. In the 90's color was everywhere, you would even have 80 year olds wearing pink windbreakers, whereas today everything is either grey, white, or black. It's the same with cars, and buildings. People were far happier and far more fun.
