You could say that of any bunch of decades in any part of history for the last three hundred years. I think it's a natural side effect of being human and living and perceiving in the present day. Every people in their own time think that they are living in the most crucial and important time ever, if one remembers that, and the perspective that history gives, we can temper our reactions.
- emodendroket 9y agoI never said this was "the most crucial and important time ever" (how do you even quantify that?). What I wanted to imply is that since the 70s wages have stagnated and now many people are going backwards and experiencing worse standards of living, with occasional crises like the 2008 housing crisis along the way. It's not really surprising that people are looking for something different.
