Nobody talked about the 2010s while we were in them

This thread is not going to be an attack on 2010s culture, but rather, an analysis of a trend I've noticed.
Whenever we move into a new decade, there's usually a sense of excitement for the decade, as well as self-awareness of it. That people should get with the times.
In the 80s, people were excited for the decade, there were songs about the decade, TV shows talked about how excited they were to be in the decade, etc.
The 90s was the same thing, lots of pop culture talked about how we were in the new decade.
With the 00s, it was different, it wasn't just excitement for a new decade, but an entire new century/millennium, which resulted in tons of excitement. I distinctly remember there being lots of pop culture talking about how we were now in the 21st century, and that the old-fashioned days of the 20th century are long gone.
But when we got to the 2010s, there really weren't people yelling "I can't wait to go into the 2010s". There was a lot of 2000s backlash, but in the 2010s, you never had movies or TV shows talking about the decade. Only now in fact, with COVID having removed us from the decade, have we really started to become aware of the decade and everything it represents.
The 2010s instead were very past-oriented and nostalgic. Lots of pop culture talked about the 80s and 90s a lot more than it did the 2010s. And if it didn't, the 2010s proved to be perhaps the most escapist decade in pop culture history, so most movies and TV shows were about fictional worlds rather than contemporary society.
