  • I see this said about the 90s all the time but really this is not true. In the 90s there was (not an exhaustive list)

    • First Gulf War
    • Yugoslavia war
    • Rwandan Genocide
    • Oklahoma City Bombing
    • Columbine Massacre
    • Los Angeles Riots
    • The Fall Of USSR (while on one hand a good thing it also cause so much economic decline, hunger, and excess mortality in the millions to many former bloc countries)
    • Somalian War
    • US 1990 recession
    • 1997 Asian Financial crisis
    • Dot com bubble
    • Hurricane Andrew
    • 1999 İzmit earthquake

    It’s very common when asking any person what was the best period of time for the world for their response to be a period of time their formative years were.

    The reality is history is full of horrid horrid things and nostalgia is a follie that’ll trick your mind.
