It's been downhill since 2020

I remember this. This was a turning point. That and the bailouts.
Bailouts said, "I'm for the rich." Flint said, "fuck the poor."
Bailouts started with GWB.

hhhooo boy...let me tell you about how it felt to live in the world before September 11th 2001...
it was freaking amazing.
We were downloading MP3s on dial up.

There's too many people and the simulation can't keep up a coherent narrative

Its whatever best year you remember. From my perspective, its been sharply downhill since 2000.
Those older than me often say it went to shit during the Reagan years. Its been slowly getting worse for a long time.
Dimpled chads and the Brooks Brothers riots. The Jingoism that followed 9/11 masked the turn things would be taking.

It was 2014. That was the final year of that Obama high where things really felt like they were turning a corner before we were slowly confronted with a world where Donald Trump might actually be president, and the only one standing in his way was somehow Hillary Clinton, a woman that Republicans had been preparing to beat for literally 20 years.
This is actually the right answer. Russia invaded Crimea in 2014, and we're all still in the middle of what is essentially a no-declared-sides WWIII now. 2015 was good, but things had shifted in the world a bit. Countering China was starting to become a huge deal suddenly for the US, and China moved into the South China Sea and did some currency revaluation that was all aimed at their 2029 and 2049 CCP anniversary goals.
Also, I was in fucking phenomenal shape.

My theory is that Covid killed everyone and this is purgatory.
(TikTok screencap)The old people who run the world feel the weight of their impending deaths, but in their narcissism they have mistaken it for the oncoming end of the world.

And harambe
Dicks out

The moment when Harambe died was when the timeline split.
we all know Harambe split the timeline. Nothing was the same after that.#neverforget

Who knew bands had so many unreleased songs?
Man oh man. I went Napster crazy.

It's whatever year that the oppression affecting the less privileged finally reached you.

The worst the obama administration got was a typical couple of weeks of the Trump administration. It is so much worse now it's unthinkable it could have gotten this bad when looking from the perspective of 2015.
wrote last edited by [email protected]Your mistake is viewing trump not as the obvious fash continuation of the state/capitalism but as some kind of unique magical monster.
That's how we got here.

(TikTok screencap)Trump was president in 2019 and I remember him cutting massive amounts of food aid (means on wheels) for elderly people during Christmas time. It was some serious Scrooge shit, except he didn't get three ghosts to make him mend his ways.

Handouts to the rich (aka "bailouts") are a major foundation of the casino economy. No beginning and no end under capitalism.

wrote last edited by [email protected]In their mind the world will end with their deaths, so they are only doing what nature bids them to do. If they had it their way they would detonate every nuclear weapon in existence within a few seconds of their final demise to take everyone with them.

I left the US after Bush Jr was elected and it was the best decision of my life. That's when fascism started it's slow ramp up in the USA
wrote last edited by [email protected]If you think fascism started with Bush, then you missed about 400+ years of history.
