IMO the 80s are very overrated and I like the 70s, 90s and 2000s a lot better. I think the 10s are a bit below the 90s and 2000s, but similar to the 80s I can see them being overrated to those two decades in the future, too. The 20s I can see being looked at in a similar light to the 2000s, a lot of hardship happening but they will be looked at with "rose-tinted glasses". Very weird to me that 2011/2012 is already very nostalgic in pop culture. Could be the pandemic kinda speeding things up, since the early 10s were mostly a happy and optimistic time since it was after the recession ended. Agreed, and i can see the optimism coming back once the covid pandemic really ends, unless a 2016 scenario happens again in 2024... Which is very much a possibility. I think the second half of the 2020s will either be a "roaring 20s" type situation or will bring the breakup of the US and civil war. It's impossible at this point to say which one it will be.

Here's to hoping for the former.

Here's to hoping for the former. For every day that Donald Trump remains a free man, the more likely it's going to be the latter. It's more likely than not at this point he runs again in 2024 and wins.

Btw, do you see boomers in the future looking back at the 2010s the same way boomers today look back at the 80s and 50s "the good old conservative revival days"

Nightmarish, a return to 2017 More like a return to 1859. Republicans want to replace American democracy with a white evangelical Christian theocracy that brings down the hammer on everyone who isn't them, and they will stop at nothing to get it.

I already believe 2010-15 are the most progressive, forward thinking years our generation will ever experience. In a future (if the Republicans are successful at what they are trying to do) where everyone is forced to live like its the 1950s and there are tanks in the street to enforce "traditional values", people will long for the "free", relatively prosperous 2010s.

It's 2021 and I long for the 2010s already lol.

No? I mean that if society keeps progressing and republicans falling lower and lower, one day 20 or 30 years from now, boomer/conservative xers and conservative millennials might long for 2016-2019 when conservativism, trumpism, the alt-right and "anti-sjw" rhetoric was at it's peak. You see boomers talking about how the 50s and 80s were great because those decades signified a more powerful time for reps and a return to the conservative status quo, i think they might long for 2016-2019 in the future for the same reasons. (Assuming the US keeps getting more and more progressive and never elects Trump or some other buffoon like him anymore)

I think the Trump era is different from the 50s and 80s in that it was a conservative minority imposing it's will on the majority, unlike the 1950s or 1980s where the majority supported conservative politics. Most conservative boomers perceive it was their last chance to "save America" from liberalism and secularism, though I think it's increasingly likely that Trump returns to power in 2025.

I have another one for my own post...I think people overrate the early 2010’s as an era, particularly a lot of Gen Zer’s and late millennials. I actually find the early 2010’s culture to have been really cheesy and cringeworthy.
