My theory is that Covid killed everyone and this is purgatory. (TikTok screencap)

I think 2016 was the last great year.
It got better in 2021 for a bit.
The moment when Harambe died was when the timeline split.
Nah, Bowie.
we all know Harambe split the timeline. Nothing was the same after that.#neverforget
Shits been weird since Leonard Nimoy died. So make that 2015.
It was kind of a meme that 2016 sucked. Then Trump got elected at the end and everything magically got better for everyone and we all lived happily ever after.
(Do I really need to include the /s here?)
Basically at long as taco is in the office it will be miserable.
The bad things is that in first term there was that there were still competent people around him. This time he fired everyone and replaced with lackeys. Unless he is stopped, US might not recover from it.
Just looking at the recent meeting in Bejing shows how quickly USA is losing its power. And it’s been only 7 months.
I think it’s the other way around actually.
The first time nobody expected Trump to win, so they didn’t have a plan what to do if he did.
The second time they had a plan called Project 2025 and they are going through it more or less point by point now.
hhhooo boy…let me tell you about how it felt to live in the world before September 11th 2001…
it was freaking amazing.
I came here to say the exact same thing. 9/11 changed the US forever in a bad way.

idk, I was a kid and harry potter wasn’t real, so that kind of sucked for me
ah yes, 2000, when JKR wasn’t known to be a fascist supporting shitheel.
to be fair, she probably also wasn’t at that time. money ruins people
It says 2019 to trick the viewer into commenting “no 2012” or 2016, since no real human thinks everything was great until 2019. It’s bait for interactions.
This is an ad for McDonald’s
I wouldn’t say things were great up until 2019, but 2020 and beyond is when things really seemed to go to shit

God sent us plague as a warning to not elect him, and he ended up in the office.
In 2015?
Just a reminder that traitor lunatic Trump was president in 2019. So no. Lol
It went to shit when you dumb mother fuckers elected him for the first time in 2017. Stupid fucking idiots.
Ive lived through a few of these already.
2020 is when everything changed.
2016 is when everything chagned.
2012 is when everything changed.
2008 is when everything changed.
2001 is when everything changed.
None of those are correct. There is before Harambe and after Harambe. The day he was killed everything changed.

I feel like that about 2016. I’m telling you, it all started with Harambe. It all went downhill from there XD
It’s absolutely social media to blame imo. 10 years ago they were only just starting with the aggressive algorithms we know today. This combined with the rise of TikTok and its own algorithm has lead to a resurgence of the right. I believe this was a direct response to how progressive we seemed to be getting in the 2010s. The wealthy right were getting scared. I occasionally accidentally see YouTube “recommendations” and it’s usually unhinged right wing shit with millions of views.

As someone who regularly watches my youtube recs, I never see this. Maybe it’s because youtube knows my preferences from watching their recommendations…
On the other hand youtube is definitely trash that promotes fascism. So I’m not doubting you either.
Oh yeah I’m never logged into an account; so I when I see it, I see what it’s pushing as trending and popular. These days I use Freetube and only see what’s “recommended” by accident when I occasionally use YouTube on my iPad.
When I used to use an account I also didn’t see any fascist shit either, so at least that’s a way to avoid it!
“With this character’s death, the thread of prophecy is severed. Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate, or persist in the doomed world you have created.”
It was Harambe. We didn’t reload.
Harambe wasn’t marked as Essential, but he was truly essential for all of us.
Eh The Matrix had it right. 1999
Fall of 2012. Obama wins again. Weed is legal in some states. Gay marriage. Nuclear powered tank lands on Mars. iPhone 5.
Its actually that between 1991 and 2001 that we merely had a full decade of relative stability in world events. Crazy shit stopped happening for a while and we have collectively imparted that things used to be “normal” on people born after 2001 but they’ve interpreted their own childhoods as the normal years.
I see this said about the 90s all the time but really this is not true. In the 90s there was (not an exhaustive list)
- First Gulf War
- Yugoslavia war
- Rwandan Genocide
- Oklahoma City Bombing
- Columbine Massacre
- Los Angeles Riots
- The Fall Of USSR (while on one hand a good thing it also cause so much economic decline, hunger, and excess mortality in the millions to many former bloc countries)
- Somalian War
- US 1990 recession
- 1997 Asian Financial crisis
- Dot com bubble
- Hurricane Andrew
- 1999 İzmit earthquake
It’s very common when asking any person what was the best period of time for the world for their response to be a period of time their formative years were.
The reality is history is full of horrid horrid things and nostalgia is a follie that’ll trick your mind.
Yes, stuff still happened, but it was all mostly local scale in consequences or temporary blips. Conflicts, economic downturns, weather events can all be huge tragedies, but an entire super power cratered in on itself in '91 and splintered into smaller countries massively rewriting the political landscape. And in 2001, 9-11 happened and its arguably a starting point for a domino effect of terrible unhinged shit that followed that also had massive global political ramifications, arguably to this very day.
Yeah, it’s less “stability in world events” and more so the west riding high off winning the cold war.
The timelines been screwed since harambe was murdered.
Same but with 2012.
Maybe the Mayan apocalypse people were right.
