In terms of the core 2020s, then yes, for sure. The cultural changes that are unique to the 2020s right now include but not limited to, COVID (obviously), the expansion of the Metaverse (which is scary imo), NFTs being a thing somehow, 9th gen gaming, a new U.S. president, new mainstream OSes such as Windows 11, and private billionaire spaceflight. But unless there's a worse catastrophe later on this decade (which I hope doesn't happen), COVID will most likely define this decade. The depressed economy and the end of the "new urbanism" that defined the 2010s is another defining aspect of this decade. This decade leans far more suburban and rural and with everyone working from home and living their lives online, there's less of a need for the traditional urban downtown. The complete end of brick and mortar retail outside of necessities like groceries will be another defining aspect of this decade. And then there's the militant Christianity aspect of it. You mention a worse crisis, and a US coup/civil war is not just in the deck but it's laid out on the table for 2024-25. That will remake the world order if it happens. wut lol

I have a feeling that anywhere between 2023 and September to early November 2024 will cement the 2020s vibe. I won’t be surprised if we see posts on here in the future that 2020 until around September to early November 2024 was an endless 2019 time loop. For now I wouldn’t say that’s wrong because to an extent, late 2018, but definitely 2019 set the cultural template for 2020 to so far early 2022. 2019 still feels like yesterday and mostly indistinguishable from today pop culturally speaking, COVID aside.

I think a lot of people imagine a different 2019 than I saw lol. Besides TikTok, 2019 still felt super 2010s for about half of the year. I also get a weird feeling about basically disregarding COVID even though it's the main defining trait of the Early 2020s and unheard of by most people through all of 2019 (I first heard about it in Jan. 2020). 2019 def doesn't feel like yesterday to me, it's a different world. I see 2019 as basically modified late 2010s, it's a unique standalone year that doesn't fully match with 2016-2018 or 2020-2022 (it leans 2016-2018). No one is going to be saying 2020-2024 is a 2019 time loop, but 2021-2024 a 2020 time loop prolly.

It was literally a different world.

the 2020s identity is already here imo. 2018-19 planted the seeds for it, which is why those years still feel like yesterday but we’re in early 20s culture right now with some lingering late 10s influences that i’m sure will be obsolete by this time next year. core 10s influence is completely gone tho

" "when will the culture be here ? " and then a common theme towards the end of said decade "ah I see how that changed" "in retrospect thats how it started" People were doing this in the 2000s about the 90s, people were also doing this in the early 2010s as well about the 2000s

Tbh i could definitely picture someone not being able to differentiate 2012 from 2008 back in 2012, seems pretty plausible
