My theory is that Covid killed everyone and this is purgatory. (TikTok screencap)

It’s not an alternate timeline.
It’s the most profitable one.
Just a reminder that traitor lunatic Trump was president in 2019. So no. Lol
Exactly. You have to go back to at least 2015 to find anything resembling normal life.
…And things still weren’t as crazy as they are now. To me that’s points towards the guys theory LOL
It went to shit when you dumb mother fuckers elected him for the first time in 2017. Stupid fucking idiots.
In 2019 the guy from the Apprentice was POTUS.
The world has always been crazy. Just more adults are becoming aware of it and able to see it all the time, every day.
Rome went out drunk on wine and conquest.
We’re going out buzzed on overpriced food delivery and crypto regret.
Cheers!
I feel the same about 2007, and 2000.
September 11th, 2001 was a real inflection point for the US. We, collectively decided that civil rights aren’t as important as revenge.
sept 11 was the first time the republicans had the chance to seize the opportunity to put america on track for its fascist fourth reichdom fantasy.
Nah 2012 when people got smartphones is when the world ended
Everything that’s happened in the since around 1900 is an extreme outlier in the history of humanity. Nothing’s been normal.
2017-2021 was Trump, so I think it started earlier. Was it maybe more like US election season 2016 as the start of it? It’s hard to pinpoint. But yes. The old US seems gone now-- Our government went from covertly corrupt to very openly so. We’re becoming Russia, and its hard to imagine ever rolling it back to who we once were.
People who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. The USA has been in a constant power struggle between monied interests and liberty since the founding days. The same party has been in control of China since before Mao was starving millions of people. A lot of european countries are literally still monarchies.
This is the normal.
2000
Just been a whipsaw shitshow since.
2000 is when Bush got elected and we openly courted the fringe, the uneducated, and religious right. Openly chose obstinacy and willful ignorance in an unqualified nepo-president who got the job because of daddy. 9/11 happened and the standard became selling shitty policy to Americans by labeling it something patriotic. The tax breaks came fast and hard, more unilateral decision making by the President. We can easily argue there were a lot of historic actions that led up to this from Gingrich to Nixon to Reagan, but Bush and the RNC are the one that really set things in motion to get us to trump. The Tea Partiers, Pailin, the official voice of the Right used openly to demonize the left and people like McConnell or Bohner actively sabotaging bipartisanship and undermining the presidency.
Yeah, 2000 for sure.
Eh The Matrix had it right. 1999
Ive lived through a few of these already.
2020 is when everything changed.
2016 is when everything chagned.
2012 is when everything changed.
2008 is when everything changed.
2001 is when everything changed.
I vote for 2016. The unthinkable happened.
We shot that poor damn gorilla.
In a way it’s fair to say that every moment changes every moment that happens after. The entire global economy is still reeling from Reaganomics ffs.
I lived through all these. 2001 and 2008 were horrible, but sort of felt like a normal kind of horrible. Recessions and terrorism were things I’d seen before. It was only the scale that made those anomalous.
From my (American) perspective 2016 was when shit started getting very weird. We were relatively stable, relatively prosperous, foreign wars were tapering off… And half the country decided that a game show host was her best bet going forward.
Then it started snowballing… Bill Cosby’s a rapist, there’s a global pandemic, Kanye put out a pro-Hitler song, Pete Davidson is a sex symbol that no starlet in Hollywood can resist, The secretary of health had his brain eaten by worms, everything you own or use became a subscription service, The fear Factor guy became a political king maker, The first lady has a crypto scam that everyone’s kind of okay with, we created AI but it’s only good for spam and rule 34 tweets, we decided political corruption isn’t a crime if you brag about it, America’s war machine is being turned on its cities… Oh and the US is building full on concentration camps.
It’s a very strange time even compared to occupy, The tea party, or Bush riding out 9/11 Reading a children’s book in an elementary school.
Perhaps this is the result of ‘modern’ values corrupting our society.
We must return to the old status quo
None of those are correct. There is before Harambe and after Harambe. The day he was killed everything changed.
Almost like something happens every 4-8 years. hmm
It was all pretty normal at least in USA until Sept 10, 2001.

Trump was president in 2019 and I remember him cutting massive amounts of food aid (means on wheels) for elderly people during Christmas time. It was some serious Scrooge shit, except he didn’t get three ghosts to make him mend his ways.
He got the three ghosts, he just slept through them.
remember when redditors thought 2016 was the worst year in history because some celebrities had died?
2016 also had Brexit and Trump winning at the ballot box
Yeah, I still feel like that year is when things really went off the rails in the US. I lost a lot of friends and family to the cult, and I’m starting to think they’re never coming back. A chasm has formed in America and it’s only getting wider.
