Can every generation agree that the 2010s are the WOAT?

1970s was the woat
Trust me
Serial killer rise
Economic decline and inflation due to oil
Overall dramatic increase in pessimism
Busing fukkery and end of civil rights momentum
Early drug fukkery
Music wasn't that great (60s, 80s, and 90s were all better for black music), disco and 70s rock carried it I guess
No video games
still only like 4 channels


Yup

It depends on the domain

70's was the best for soul funk and fashion
80's was the best for pop music, Sci fi and Japanese animation
90's was the best for hip hop and sports
00's was the best for movies TV shows, series and black porn
10's was the best for superhero movies and technology

2020 was already worse than any year in the 2010s.

2021 not been much better.

i was in college for like half the 2010s then started making my first real money the other half so I enjoyed em to the fullest:blessed::blessed: :blessed:
I'm going to get heat for this, but as bad as 2020 was, it was an extremely important year for advancing black peoples interests.

Reparations finally entered into the mainstream for the first time in years and serious political actors have to take it seriously.

We saw Gen Z showing they've got smoke for white supremacy with how they refused to back down even when cops were showing up with full riot gear.

We avoided a second Trump term and civil war. We got the definitive Michael jordan documentary with Kobe's last appearance on camera.

A lot of people got a taste of a living wage from stimulus payments and aren't finna go back to wage slavery. Now you got companies offering sign on bonuses and 15 dollar minimum wage.

Brehs made serious money off cryptocurrency and it seems here to stay like the stock market.

Artificial intelligence is getting way better to the point where things like YouTube and Spotify can more accurately predict shyt you'll like.

Climate change is now basically accepted universally as an issue we cannot ignore.

MRNA technology has made vaccines much safer and is some straight up sci fi shyt that has saved millions of lives and if applied to other disease can save millions more.

Billionaires and celebrities being exposed as the out of touch a$$holes they really are.

Yup

Dudes on here always act like the 70’s was some utopia when it was really a decade full of serial killers, recessions, prostitution and drugs trafficking.

They're smarter in some ways since they grew up knowing they could Google whatever shyt they read in the text books and find well researched information that contradicts it. For example a lot of states have text books which are absolute trash at detailing just how bad slavery was and the problems it caused that we still have to live with today. Zoomers know if something sounds like bullshyt, it most likely is and now have the tools to prove it. This generation has a hunger for knowledge and a resistance to orthodoxy that hasn't been around for a long time.
