Is the 2010s a repeat of the 1960s? UPDATE: 2020s giving the 2010s a run for its money :francis:

[AlainLocke]

Capitalism is cyclical and thus creates cyclical conditions...

So yeah...shyt is gonna repeat itself until people get it right and dead capitalism...

The 1950s to 60s marked a time where the USA was the last country standing after the WW2 and people in the USA were richer than ever yet Black folks didn't have shyt and treated like shyt...thus the contradiction...and the 2nd Wave of the Civil Rights Movement

Now...

Well Black folks still dont have shyt but the economic status of White people are declining all over the world due to capitalism raping their countries dry for decades and capitalists are existing the Western market...and going East because the East was poor as shyt but at least the East got cheap labor markets and a growing middle class to sell their shyt to now...

So guess who is fukked?

Westerners...after decades of enjoying the fruits of destroying and pillaging and colonizing the East...now the East is free and taking all the rich capitalist Westerners money and builiding themselves up while fukking over non-capitalist Westerners....

That's the thing about Capitalism...only people that will win are the capitalists....

If you don't own businesses, employ people, own property...you are fukked...and everybody can't be capitalists cause their would be no employees

And when people get fukked they have one reaction...

They get revolutionary and desire change...

Which is why you have shyt like Fascism and Socialism/Communism pop up in times of crisis...

People in the West got shyt fukked up...

They think they are seeing conservatism...

Nah...you seeing Fascism...

Fascism is revolutionary...just like Socialism...but it looks like conservatism... no different than center-leftists sometimes looking like Socialists in the USA..

It is what happens when capitalism is on it's last legs in a given country and capitalists are scared shytless cause they don't want their shyt taken away...so they introduce a way to the political class...how to save the situation...

Class collaboration...

Ultra-Nationalism...

Racism...

Xenophobia...

The solution to everyone's problems is to unify as Americans or Germans or where-ever the fukk you are at and truly love your country and decide who gets to stay, live and die...

Capitalists get to keep all their shyt...

The undesirables are culled...

And the country becomes great again...

Yes

No Iconic figure of each race(JFK, MLK, Malcom Little) has been assassinated.


So not entirely ...as the cypher has not been complete.

Trump is a combination of Nixon and LBJ(the crassness and vulgar personality of LBJ). Both were successors to people who ended up being more symbolic than being a transformative President(Obama/JFK).

 

[Wild self]

Nah, if anything, the 2020s gonna be the 60s on steroids.

 

[JadeB]

Nah, if anything, the 2020s gonna be the 60s on steroids.

I see the 20s being a 70s repeat too.

 

[Kairi Irving]

I see the 20s being a 70s repeat too.

20s = 2000s

 

[JadeB]

20s = 2000s

In what way if I may ask?

 

[Kairi Irving]

In what way if I may ask?

PS5 launch is the PS2 launch

 

[ISO]

In what way if I may ask?

It's gonna be an increasing amount of 2000's nostalgia.

 

[CASHAPP]

I see the 20s being a 70s repeat too.

or Roaring 1920s repeat with it being the century mark

at some point it’s also inevitable that white people will see the biggest transfer of wealth ever when their white boomer parents and grandparents pass away

As this is happening they gonna be spending money like crazy like people were doing in the Roaring 20s era

but ironically you may also be right about the 1970s because it’s inevitable that if Trump wins re-election and they regain the house, Roe V Wade is being repealed. I know that has nothing to do with a judicial matter but a conservative government makes it less likely that the repeal is fought

if you remember the original Roe V Wade decision came in the 70s so a reversal outlawing abortion would have a polar opposite reaction than what happened in the 70s

I’ll say 2020s will be a mix of 1920s and 70s though


1920s has Calvin Coolidge for most of the decade. I think Trumps successor will be similar to him and known to be quiet the same way Calvin Coolidge was

jazz will make a big return but a more modern style that is appealable to the masses

1960s=2010s

1970s=2020s

Nixon’s 68 election rise was the white backlash against Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society Programs and Civil Rights reforms that made white people feel threatened

Trumps 2016 rise was the reaction to white people being insecure having a Black President for years

If the 2020s is like the 70s, the corrupt racist President likely wins election in a landslide. He ain’t getting impeached now but maybe he gets his own Watergate in his second term

Nixon was opening up relations with China and Trump is having a trade war...

Nixon met Elvis in the White House...Trump met Living Legend Yeezus Christian Genius Billionaire

Nixon was the first President ever to visit China. Trump was the first President ever to visit North Korea

Iconic Rock Star Jimi Hendrix dies in 1970, Iconic Rap Star Lil Wayne dies in 2020.

1970s was the decade of serial killers...2020s don’t call it a comeback they been here for years...

After a corrupt controversial racist Nixon/Trump, America looks for someone who is the opposite in personality. Meaning religious like Jimmy Carter but I think it will be a Republican version who like Carter also believes in climate change and supporting green energy. It’s a tale of contrasts. Nixon was at the first half of the 70s and Carter was at the end and have nothing in common

bands and music groups become popular again like in the 70s. The 10s was the Stan /fandom decade
