[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The music was wayyyyy better. From rap, to hip hop, to hard rock, to alternative. Music was just so damn good. Everything today is just really bad rap/pop. Rock and alternative are essentially dead. Hip hop is no where near as good as the 90s.

Movies were also fantastic. Tons and tons of great movies from the 90s. That goes for shows as well.

The 90s were also mostly peaceful throughout the world. It was also a very prosperous time. [/quote]

No it wasn’t peaceful throughout the world? Maybe you didn’t hear of anything since news wasn’t 24/7 but plenty of bombings and killings.

Tv shows were worried about being PC. The whole cancel culture has ruined humor.

Right? Rwanda, Mogadishu, Gulf War, Bosnian War... some of you must have been very young in the 90s to not remember any of these events.[/quote]

In the U.S., the first World Trade Center bombing (1993), Waco (1993), the Oklahoma City bombing (1995), right wing militias got a lot of media attention because of their affiliation with Tim McVeigh, the Unabomber killed someone in 1995 and threatened to blow up an airliner out of LAX in the same year over the Fourth of July weekend, the bombing in Atlanta during the 1996 Olympics.  The Columbine massacre (1999). Race relations were at a boiling point because of the beating of Rodney King (1991), the L.A. riots (1992) and, of course, the O.J. Simpson trial (1995).

Not saying that the 1990s were worse than the present, but the U.S. seemed like it was falling apart then too.
