Why do so many people, institutions included, seem culturally trapped in 2016? What was so significant about this landmark year to the point where people seem to continue to inhabit it a decade later? Is it a psychological cope to withdraw from the malaise of the Covid era and its repercussions or is it something more? Other years in this vein, at least in my lifetime, are 1999 and 2008. I understand “transition years” but it’s been 10 years and nobody seems to romanticize any other year in particular ever since. Anyone know what I mean?

>>42610587I have never heard of anyone romanticizing the year 2016.
I realy don't understand what do you mean by institutions ? Many people likes 2016, espescially gen Z because we were teen in 2016. And I think that's it...
>>42610587It's because of Trump disrupting liberal cultural dominance in western countries. It's been a decade long allergic reaction. It's going to be 2016 until some new consensus is reached, whether that's Mamdani style gay brown socialism, Buchanan isolationism, neocon foreign adventurism, or a return to the Obama era norms. Something has to give before normalcy can be reestablished.
>>42610587it was the last gasp of the leftists. they will not recover.https://www.brighteon.com/38949ecb-9ec4-4da9-8d11-e1a922e15be9
>>42610616Not even necessarily romanticizing it but speaking as if it is that year. There appears to be a cultural and political lagging effect with people that seem eternally trapped in 2016 - 2018. This mostly seems to be a dysfunctional millennial problem from what I’ve noticed>>42610611Could be related. I have a family member who continually posts Trump memes from 2017 to this day
>>42610629Hollywood is a big example. You have pic related bombing at the box office yet it would have done well in 2016 even with bad press. So it appears shareholders for these studios are also lagging a decade behind
they are just old as fuck. It's juste like when grandma ask you if you still like playing with dolls but you're a 33yo bank manager
>>42610637>Could be related.that's literally all it is, >>42610630 explained it a bitI can tell that you're young, so you'll need to trust senpai on this one, okay
You are talking about being stuck in the past but you are on fucking 4chan...
>>42610635Is that what you like to tell yourself? Better start getting used to tranny new world order, because you're in one. This odin excursion will end like all the rest.
>>42610587There's a lot of retards out there. I know people who are stuck in 1995, 2001, 2008, 2020, etc. Some people become mentally entrapped in the year that they last felt alive or whatever the case may be.
>>42610682Trump's a Christian troon-kun
>>42610699Shit. I meant to include the big ole 2012. That seems to be another ***magically fucked*** year for some people. Some special kid might call me an NPC for not being sensitive enough to feel "the disturbance" in XXX year. But to my thinking, shit happens. You either move on or stay stagnant. I don't wanna be some pretend-schizo obsessing over shit that he can't control but continues to bitch and moan about.
>>42610649I enjoyed the new Superman last year and find Millie attractive and have zero desire to see that movie.
>>42610616Same. Heard the exact opposite.
