the 1990s were a golden decade in the western world and the average American was optimistic and fairly well off. the soviet union had just collapsed and everyone was convinced the american way of life had won. if you’ve effectively won at history why not dance?
Clinton was so far to the right he was pretty much a centrist republican. He permanently destroyed welfare, destroying many poor families in the process.
90S WAS when pop culture got transitioned to whazzup dawg 24/7. Now everyone has the same mean look, the same swaying head and wagging finger to argue, and the violence is quicker and more brutal. 65% of the people have given in to that way of life or at least thought process and way of speaking /
