The difference is, the degeneracy is now pushed on your children through social media. Instead of hiring one Marilyn Monroe, or a gaggle of popstars like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and Shakira, now they train YOUR DAUGHTERS and SISTERS, regular women, to act hyper-sexualized / sexually autistic. And if you look and enjoy the view? TOXIC MALE GAZE! If you mock them for being degenerate floozies? SEXIST MISOGNYIST!

Sh!t is even MORE degenerate now, only you're not allowed to enjoy it, and have to pretend it's about empowerment and not base carnal desires. It's all such horsesh!t. It's getting worse and worse. Look at all the non-binary gender bending sh!t. I don't think anyone should be bullied for their mental illness, but I think it's even more dangerous to IDOLIZE their mental illness, and...again...push it on kids and regular people.

Sh!t is way edgier, but in an oppressive way. The "edgy" sh!t of the years past were all rooted in fun. Consumers have fun, corporations make cash. Now there's a whole new, almost emotionally BDSM aspect to it, where you are shamed and whatnot for daring to enjoy yourself, but also you must celebrate and pretend degeneracy is not hedonism unleashed, it's really just "speaking to power" or some bullsh!t. You can be a completely delusional, deranged ****git predator, and as long as your politics align with the mainstream views, you'll get framed as brave and bold. I'd say sh!t has gotten way worse, and not in a fun way.

Wow, I didn't understand a lot of what you said, those terms just aren't in my vocabulary some how. Crazy!

Yeah, those pop stars were awesome aswell, they were creative and cool without looking gay. Insane culture overlapping with one another. Those same people look ridiculous now.


I think a lot of what you said may well be true. However, the consumers pre 2011 WANTED to have fun, they were naturally like that. These days it's very rare to find a happy, fun person without having some weird flaw. Majority of people try to kill the fun with all these terms you're using. I can't remember the last time an adult hopped on a climbing frame, did a backflip off a bench, played with the stuff in the stores, played on the carnival rides all day, did donuts on a football field, yelled out of line, got mud on their clothes etc.

People now are trying to act adulty, sounds silly to say, but most people are really existing just to exist, no fun going on. Very scripted behaviour.
