I don't know if anyone here is a 90s kid, but I remember my parents were able to have kids and a house in a good economy at their young age back in these days. Sure, there isn't a decade that's perfect and could suck for you depending on where you were born, but I'm pretty sure most adults who lived in these days miss when the economy and housing prices weren't shit in the US
Hell, when I was a kid back in Bicentennial times, $60,000 for a house was considered expensive, and you could get a sit-down dinner at a nice restaurant like Bob's Big Boy for less than five bucks.
Hitler would have a full in-box copy of Super Mario 64 but have only played and beat it back in the 90's.
Mussolini would stream himself playing SM64 and spending days trying to get the world record for 70 Star and 120 Star and he knows every glitch to clip through all the walls and his favorite level is Tick Tock Clock
The misandry on that site is insane. Go into any thread about a woman who did something violent and someone will pipe up with how men are SO MUCH WORSE, probably with stats about how many murders men have committed, how often they're the ones committing domestic violence, etc., like it has anything to do with the matter at hand. Even in posts having nothing to do with violence, they find a way to wedge in something about how all men are violent rapists and then whip out the stats again when people dare say that not all men are like that. It must be exhausting to be so hateful all the time.
There is a very widespread, but essentially uncodified and unspoken of ideology that believes the 1990s was the pinnacle of human civilization. Half of Gen Z wishes the Internet didn't exist. There is widespread support - among all age groups - for policies like Australia's social media ban for under-16s, which comes across to me as being primarily motivated by a sort of desperate and muddled attempt to wind the clock back, at least when it comes to childhood (we tend to be quite happy to impose on children rules we like but aren't willing to impose on ourselves).
Zoomies are unconsciously trying to error correct and somehow leave the sphere of algorithm-driven degeneracy degeneracy the internet became. But the thing is, this ideology is essentially correct. The 90s was the last time when your average normie in the western civilization could just... exist. Just go through life without care or undue effort, go to uni, get a degree that would guarantee a job, get a job that would guarantee a living and just... exist. Be able to afford a house, a car, a family, hobbies, free time, everything without a struggle, be confident in social mobiltiy existing, be able to enjoy all the organizations, traditions and just ways of everyday stuff of high trust society. Sure, problems existed back then too, no one claims they didn't, but this was the background, the expectation, the social contract, that you were able to just exist, thrive and succeed if you did the bare minimum. Everything was optimistic, things just worked, society ran and you did not have to think about it. In fact, for the longest time politics was something for your uncle reading newspapers or the CNN showing foreign countries getting bombed. It was a distant, irrelevant thing, You could have ignored the entirety of it, go through your entire life without having an opinion or voting once and society still just worked. Things were simply figured out, solved, you just had to show up and do your part for a functional society and your part was not backbreaking effort, just getting a 9 to 5.
Here hes trying to claim that having nostalgia for Mario isn't fascism but an "Unchecked nostalgia that distorts reality". Some of these people are even trying to claim that the 90s weren't even that great either.
They have to claim this, because the 90s being better than present day would completely undermine their worldview and ideology to the point of cognitive dissonance. The chud simply cannot be allowed to be right! Our Democracy™, The LGBTQ™ and Our Economy™ is the besetst that they have ever been! Do not dare to criticize them, save for unserious and larpy communist rhetoric about "eating the rich"

And what did people do in this good society? They stopped having children.
The leadership class panicked their peasants are not breeding because this means less wagies to pay them taxes, so they decided open borders it is.
Now they have to enjoy infinity pajeets.

Literally the only good things these people claim about modern society are LGBTQ rights and immigrants. As if its so great that young people and teens are so chronically online to where its like @Beautiful Border said, they're making up new sexuality and genders ever week and then wonder why their mental health is declining. It isn't the fact that today's youth is so chronically online, its billionaires and politicians fault for that. Also, yeah Im sure the terror attacks, demographic changes, and being blamed for past wrongdoings is all billionaires fault as well.
I mean, the financial class are the ones desperately trying to bring in the mudflood, but when you point this out the usual suspects pretend not to understand the connection.
Despite the beard she looks more naturally feminine and less uncanny valley in the last pic. I think it's the cheap shitty wigs ruining things for her now.
I’m late to this but I recognize her. She is a YouTuber named Ryptoll. She initially transitioned because she was a lesbian who felt like she couldn’t be a feminine one because all the lesbians she saw were in media were masculine. Then she detransitioned and identified as bisexual. YouTube
Her YouTube channel description:
This channel of mine ended up being about my perpetual gender crisis. Battling with gender dysphoria, trauma, autism, OSDD, PTSD, etc. Somewhere between trans man in denial and dysphoric woman, caught in the tangles of ideology and sexism, trying to break free. Occasionally I rant about my sexuality as well. I'm bisexual, and in my 30's.
Sometimes I read my own poetry here as well. English is my second language, Swedish is my first. Sorry about the accent. I'm a bit of a nihilist with a dark sense of humour. Thus, you will never see me monetize my videos as I'm incapable of not cursing and/or talking about sexual things.
Hetero female, masculine/gnc, dysphoric and transitioning. I love my testosteronized body. From Sweden, 33 years old. I question everything gender and sexuality, but I get tired of politics. Radfem friendly, and gender ideology friendly. I don't have patience for drama. I'm autistic, have adhd, biid and borderline, but these are not an excuse for you to treat me like shit, or for me to treat you like shit. They are an explanation for my struggles. I ramble a lot.

On one hand, it's hilarious to see redditors lose millions in court, but on the other hand, it sucks that Nintendo are the ones receiving those millions.
As a “gesture of reasonableness,” Nintendo didn’t request DMCA damages or attorneys’ fees. This did not go unnoticed by the judge, who notes that this worked in favor of granting the maximum copyright infringement damages.
On one hand, it's hilarious to see redditors lose millions in court, but on the other hand, it sucks that Nintendo are the ones receiving those millions.
By filing the lawsuit, Nintendo said it wanted to “put a stop to” Williams’ activities, and presumably send a deterrent message to others. Recouping the $4.5 million will likely be hard, particularly since the defendant is unresponsive.
I doubt they’ll sit idly by and let $4.5 million just slip away like that, but I have no idea what Nintendo does in situations like this, so I guess time will tell.

The two are completely unrelated. People still had more kids in the nineties, where it was atleast the expectation that your regular person would inevitably marry and have atleast 1-2 kids, compared to todays lurid rainbow degeneracy and childlessness. It was just the last cultural decade where you could unironically and unambiguously claim that your society is working, your culture is working, and its a good system worth emulating to the rest of the world. Now everyone, except very ironically, the "revolutionary" redditors know its a bubble about to pop and the can is desperately kicked down the road year by year to avoid total economic collapse. The immigrants are required not as workers, but as customers, they need to consoom and take out debts, or economy hitting a deflationary curve would squeeze out everything. Its an act of absurd desperation to keep the market functioning.
