In the last 5 to 10 years everything seems to suck: product’s and services quality plummeted, everything from homes to cars to food became really expensive, technology stopped to help us to be something designed to f@ck with us and our money, nobody seems to be able to hold a job anymore, everyone is broke. Life seems worse in general.

Why? Did COVID made this happen? How?

    Even without the Internet, being told by older generations how much they were able to achieve with higher income to cost ratio of everything from homes to education is a very loud narrative.

      TBF they also had lead in their paint and fuel so it wasn’t exactly rosy.

        Reminder that lead was banned from gasoline at the pump in 1996. It’s why I think so many of us have adhd and all kinds of other neurological disorders nowadays. Boomers had like a 90% excessive exposure rate.
