    I have a strong feeling that if we were to re-live the 90’s right now we’d quickly realise it wasn’t so “innocent” after all. People just had thicker skin back then and recreational outrage wasn’t really a thing due to how slow news and trends speaded at the age of early internet.

      Not really. They just didn’t have the same level of internet connectivity that we have now.

      So they didn’t have as much information and couldn’t talk to each other the way people can now.

      For most of the 1990s the internet wasn’t much of a factor in pop culture or daily life. Email was something of a newfangled gimmick in the movie You’ve Got Mail.
