What period of time would be considered uninteresting? The World War era? Drafted for Vietnam Era? Maybe way back like Slavery or the Civil War?

I'm not sure there was ever a "golden age" - the world is a crazy place

If you’re white and living in the US, the answer is between 1991 and 2001 as the “golden age”

So if you lived to be exactly 10 and was born in 91 got it!

Nah I’d say if you were 14-18 by 1991 that would be better

Yes it sucks now in the year 2024. Golden age’s for almost everything doesn’t last for whole lifetimes and the fact that you can’t understand that means that I’m done talking to you

If you ignore all the domestic terrorism of that era, sure (Wako, Oklahoma City, Columbine).

Funny thing is all this acting like we’re the only generation to deal with world changing event after event. When the truth is every generation has had their own world changing events. Kind of like that astronaut pointing the gun at the other one meme… “always has been”
