De ce Alex Ceobanu?

Dc nu?:)))

The biggest difference was critical thinking was the norm and feelings were still emotions. Oh and the Republicans were the enemy establishment and the democrats still served the working man.

Nice

The media and Gov't wanted you to be afraid of Russians & Commies, now that the cold war is over they needed a new boogeyman so mudslimes were replaced so they can continue scaring you into submission

Wtf russians are not scary at all

Agreed, the cognitive dissonance and overall level of thinking is ridiculous today. the younger generation is STUPID as fuck. they defend their smartphones but they have much less real life experience and therefore common sense.

also they are just skimming the surface of information due to their fucked up attention spans. they seem to instantly believe headlines.
I partially blame twitter for destroying attention spans. they aren't used to dealing with complete thoughts, only shallow levels of information.

Critical thinking seems to be missing and has been replaced by hipster faux intellectuals who have an education but cannot actually form their own thoughts.

I think youre jealous because you didnt have a iphone when you were teen

In the 80s people were less obsessed with themselves.
People had fewer imaginary problems.
There were no people with assburgers or other retardation.
Traditional gender roles were a thing.
Less degeneracy and casual drug use.
Less homosexuals.

>they are just skimming the surface of information due to their fucked up attention spans

So much this.

>cocaine for breakfast
>cocaine for brunch
>cocaine for lunch
>cocaine for afternoon snack
>cocaine for dinner
>cocaine and a hooker for dessert

Life was better.

Oh and...

>You were allowed to smoke wherever the fuck you wanted because people weren't fucking pussies.

fuck that, replace childhood memories with internet bullshit? no thanks

Yep every time you visited a cool abandoned place you couldnt take a pic or have memes. Im not saying its better now but dont blame phones, i bet u wish u had one too

Sounds degenerate as fuck.

Pussy or not breathing in toxic fumes increases your likelyhood to get sick.
Also evety place smells better without fumes of idiots their sigarettes, good riddance.

Pussy.

>Any oldfags lurking Cred Forums? I wanna know how the world was a while ago, lets say 80s? Were people more redpilled or is it a meme?
the world is always better proportional with how many years you go back

Maybe it was like that in Romania, but here in the States we had things called "cameras"

people where redpilled. read Tolstoy, people where redpilled in the 1800's

in the 80's there was a massive wave of political polarisation, that only happens when people are redpilled.

it just seems more apparent today because:
>you are experiencing it now so it feels more important
>the internet

but evne without the internet, its much about people thinking that today's issues are somehow much more important/pressing/relevant then they ever where. simply because they are witnessing it themselves.

truth of the matter is, this crap has been with us since the dawn of time and only our means of expressing it change slowly.

so no, you're not special. neither am I. we are just repeating ourselves through eternity.

The world "Used to" be great, Ppl knew there places.
youtu.be/WH-dxgGRV14

Yeah im sure you carried a 100 pound camera everywhere you went

Pussy.

And look at the bull market we had powered entirely by cocaine

couple of faggots

Micro or macro? What college?

the webz fked alotta shit up. lol with trolling capabilities, and hackz, the world will only get worse

My friend here knows what's up.

I was born in the early 80s. My grandpa was born in the early 1900s. He saw electricity, indoor plumbing, and then the internet. Really saw it all. A year ago, before he died, he said the biggest change in the world is that things used to get better by measurable margins every year. He said it's still the case today, but very incremental.

Was born in 1977. The 90's were great. Life is totally shit and cucked compared to then.

2008 onwards is when things really started taking a turn for tge worst

?

Found the underage faggot. Life before the internet was vastly superior.

1919.

80s were a much happier, positive, naively optimistic time; everything got grim/dark/serious after 911

youtube.com/watch?v=VjjCHjYaSDM

Born in the 55s I can guarantee you the 60s/70s/80s were way more degenerate than today.
Something's changing.

Cool did u go to the cinema back then and if u did did they have good speakers like now or did everything sound distorted ik pickups sound well tho

I dont believe you are 61

Not to mention that divorce rates are THE LOWEST EVER.

I wasn't around, but everyone went to the cinema more before cable and the internet.
>punctuation helps, gypsy

I'm an old rich kind-of famous sociology teacher that is secretly conservative and work towards the destruction of the left

Sure and im justin bieber

No, you are a gypsy asshole asking for gibsmedat

it just wasn't a problem. i was born in the poorest part of my province, the poorest place. there were no googles and muslims yet. you could let your children play in the street all day. a lot less traffic, a lot less violence and a lot of social control. everybody went to church, people were a community. everyone knew their neighbors, the people in their street. there were no stabbings and murders where i lived. yeah, sometimes kids would fight, that's it.

people were impressively orderly and docile. the state was the great benefactor that governed life. they made the trains arrive on time, they managed the post office. everything was organised and there was a genuine focus on creating wholesome communities.

then came atheism, immigration and capitalism in it's full force. the 90's were much different.

he looks like a faggot.

In some ways, yes. The internet with the release of social media and smartphones changed a lot of things. Even pop culture turned to shit.

Murder rates were greater by then.
Don't forget that.

post proofs faggot

Monkey i will eat in front of ur cage at the zoo and piss on you

Different fag here but I was a child in the 90's.
Cinema speakers were just fine.
I still remember when we went to go watch Jurassic Park.
Shit was so cash.
When I was 14 I got my first job picking sweet corn.
I made 7 bucks an hour. That's somewhere near federal minimum wage today if I understand correctly.

No, just don't believe it, whatever.
haha

>No, just don't believe it, whatever.
literally what every roleplaying faggot says

The good old days sucked in almost every way except one - good jobs existed and people had money.

I know. But I could not prove it anyway, just take a look at the divorce rates and correlate to population growth and you will have a surprise.
theguardian.com/news/datablog/2010/jan/28/divorce-rates-marriage-ons

>Even pop culture turned to shit.
Pop culture has been shit since the 80s, well before the internet/social media/smartphones became a thing.

Imagine going to watch the Matrix, Jurassic Park and Terminator 2 at the cinema. So much cool stuff. Now it's Cape shit nonsense. Cinemas seem better designed today

Since 60s but it started in the 40s with antifascist novelas and movies.

dude, police in the 80's wrote 3 tickets per year. i have a newspaper from when i was born. on the front page is an article about a guy that lost his dog but found it a while later. maybe in your shithole of a country but 1980's Netherlands was pretty much a utopia of decency.

The 80s seemed pretty gay desu

Thats not bad i pick corn for 10 dollars a day in summer and potatoes for 15 a day but 1 dollar=4 leu (my currency) so its not bad neither

The 80's sucked due to AIDS. People went insane over the deluded belief there was a nationwide satanic pedophile ring, women started to hyphenate their names when they got married and the religious right were attacking video games.

Not to mention woman's fashion blew donkey dick. Oversized tops to hide the fact that everyone was just starting to get fat.

knows what time it is

Masculinity wasn't considered toxic and people would openly tell racist jokes. It was Cred Forums irl without the pathetic betas and lonely shut-ins. Arnold and Sly were our heroes and Ronald Reagan was busy Making America Great Again. Cowboys were considered cool and everyone owned a tent and actually used it during the summer. People weren't fat slobs, they actually knew how to work/build with their hands. It was a much better time to be a man.

Sad but true, my fellow 77er. Being a kid in the 80s and a teenager in the 90s was truly a blast

Matrix was good but u cant say there arent good movies now eg have u seen sausage party or angry birds or suicide squad if u like that thing

lel

I want to believe you. Make me believe you.

>wanting to drive yourself to an early grave
>so unfulfilled and emotionally immature you have to use drugs to escape your pathetic life

you're a massive fag

Oooooooo

The 80's and the 90's were shit tier. This is when nigger thug culture reared its head. They became our sports hero's, our music masters, and by affirmative action our ultimate demise in the work force.

Fuck off 80's and 90's.. you bred too many nigger lovers and our society has not been able to recover from it.

We can't help it dude. Environmental pollutants have caused an ADHD epidemic.

52 here
segregation was still in effect and it worked niggers still knew their place and and were grateful if you treated them like a fellow human which as we see now they truly aren't. the jew hid his meme of degeneration of whites and domination of goy financially and whites were happy to let the pathologically obsessed with money jew toil away at its maniacal craft of shekel creation. for the most part white culture dominated because of high iq and moral structure in normal nuclear families, the jew took over the money system in 1915 and by 1970 it took two people to earn to raise a family because of the jews greed in devaluing the money supply also known as inflation. around this time the schools were dumbed down to nigger level by communists and jews, and the media owned by the jew started pumping out porn and the day jus like us meme, to create the open coal burner, see look who's coming to dinner. the degenerated nigger is no sidney poitier. then we started paying feral niggers to over populate the city centers like a plague, with visible results aka white flight. this all has progressed to today but you know that history if your red pilled.

Lmao you're to blame for the country being fucked up now, hope you know that.

And computer games looked like
>this
and the very fact there were 3 colors due to CGA graphics adapters with a massive 256kb of "video" memory was amazing...then EGA...and holy fuck...when VGA hit!!!

Also, there was no social media, bullying was acceptable and even autists got to makw friends because you were FORCED to interact with people.

Now they can get a faux-socialization through online forums like this and faceberg and can order any and every-thing without leaving their home.

The early internet was the best too... only smart people, government intelligence operatives and military.

AOL/Compuserve and Eternal September ruined it.

I am so glad I got to be a kid in the 80's.

Kids son't play outside anymore late at night playing manhunt and building treeforts and shit... they get the police called on them because everyone's terrified due to the magic of multiculturalism and blacks infiltrating everything with their "thug-life" nigger poison thanks to jewish media fucking up everyone's brains.

Not true, you elected a Black POTUS in the 2000s, fuck that.

I, literally, do not have the words to describe the size of you ass vagina. Does your boyfriend have any idea how much of a faggot you truly are?

lol. Keep tellin' yourself that, kiddo.

Dude only faggots watch porn anyway its bad for ur body and soul aswell also tell me did u write leters to ur gf when you were not with her or idk if there were public phones avalabile

Fuck I was born in 98, I fucking hate my life. All of you were so lucky to see a better world. I've been living in shit Jewish degeneracy my whole life as my norm. No seriously, you don't know what it's like to have never know a pre 9/11 world it's terrible. Will we ever go back to the good times or it ended when the twin towers went down?

what do you think lead to this monkey in office? 80's and 90's programming. Those who were kids in the 80's and 90's grew up still loving those nogs and put on in office.

I agree with you whole heartedly, as I can speak from experience.

How do I break the conditioning and get my attention span back?

Reagan used the word faggots to describe homosexuals to the press, iirc.
And the press chuckled.

>98
>turned 18 this year
Learn to math gypsy.

Fuck man, thanks for bringing back a flood of memories of warm July nights playing manhunt.

youtube.com/watch?v=vvr9AMWEU-c

I wanted to be more, fought to get what I could, but nobody ever gave me a chance. History forgot me, and those my age.

Fucking faggot

People were just as insane, but the environment allowed them to be without ushering in the apocalypse.

California was still free in the early 80s. We could drive our trucks down to the river and raise hell. Then government began to appear everywhere. Signs, regulations, gates, and green shirt faggot feds everywhere.

We could climb in Yosemite with no bear canisters, and make fires at night. We could day hike half dome without permits, and enter any wilderness area we wanted without red tape.

Now they review your wilderness permit and a ranger lurks in the bushes at your destination to hassle you about anything they can think of.

I used to think "big government" was just wingnut jingo, but it turns out that big government sucks more ass than anything in the world. The feds are the lowest form of scum- anti-American faggots one and all. Fuck them and the mangy horse they rode in on.

really... made me... think...

you wont believe this but i was searching for these sound for a long time, i did not knew what are they, so i could not find them, thanks man you are amazing

smoke weed, take pills, drop outta skool, killl people and drink behind the wheel like it was still legal

46 year old guy here.. the 80s were pretty good. Good music, lots of blow around, and the stock market did really good during that decade. Reagan was president.. things were much more redpilled than today, but that is not saying much really. Women were just starting to enter the workforce in greater numbers and they wore those giant fucking shoulder pads in their clothes to show they were as tough as men. But they were nowhere near as vigilant, aggressive, and slutty as they are today. 80s were a good time. I do feel bad for millenials and gen-Z.. it's not your fault. The previous generations sucked this thing dry and there's not a lot left really.

At least we have memes

If you weren't taught discipline when you were a kid, it's harder to teach yourself when you are older but it can be done.
Looking at different kids today, it looks like the parents who limit their kids internet usage are a lot sharper and some of them are also more athletic.
It's fucked up when you watch friends raise their kids a certain way and you see them growing up being good at video games and terrible at everything else.

This is gonna sound old school, but my advice is to time your internet usage. you decide ahead of time that you won't spend more than X amount of time a day on a phone or computer, and you stick to it. And you take that extra free time you get and put that time into developing a skill, exercising, creating, whatever, something productive. and you do it every single day for an hour or two for weeks, and then its easy as it has become a habit.

If you are trying to be productive, but still have problems focusing, take some B-vitamins and some choline.

nice trips. Not sure exactly what you mean by redpilled. Gays were not accepted then if thats what you mean. Attitudes towards sex and drugs were very similar to today, with the exception of weed, which was thought to be much worse back then. But then again, everyone smoked cigs (far worse, imo). People were no more or less racist tho. We were still riding the feminism train from the 80s, i think attitudes towards women haven't changes much. Music was pretty bad, consumer culture was at its peak.

oops
*feminism train from the 60s-70s

>tfw i made my bones on the internet as an 8 year old arguing with full blown adults
>tfw constant computer use for 10 years has fried my attention span

I wrote redpill so that i dont get banned:))) i wanna know about music back then

absolutely all of my problems revolve around playing runescape and rpgs extensively growing up
>still play runescape
>don't play as many other rpgs

actually the biggest difference I see between when I grew up inthe 80s vs today (I have kids of my own now) is in parenting.
In the 80s, we got a whole lot more independence at a young age. I could cruise around my neighborhood all day on a Saturday starting at age 6. We had some light activities like sports that we were carted around to, but nothing like the activities todays kids must endure. every minute of their day is scheduled and parents do everything for their kids.
I try to raise my kids differently, more like when I was a kid. But there is so much child predator fear today, its not totally doable.

What Cred Forums calls the "red pill" is a delusion to distract millennials from their failures and shortcomings in modern life. It is the ultimate blue pill.

The computer is part of my life, it's all I have to connect to the outside world, nobody has time for me.

Besides, I grew up on it, you might as well ask a crack addict to quit on his own.

39 here

>were people more redpilled
I guess in some ways yes, political correctness wasn't near what it is today

Only 3 tv channels though so the Skype media had complete control, but they weren't in 100% genocide whites mode

Music was the best.. had my first kiss from a boy while a song by this artist was playing on the car radio..

Thats gay

The 80s were a transition time.
>I'm the youngest person I know to have taken a civics class.

>There were enough people left from WW2 you interacted with on a daily basis that you knew the difference between loving your country and blindly following the State.

Cmon is this bait. The only film I was looking forward to this year was Jason Bourne

Liberals depress me more than anything today.

>waaa I'm a product of my surroundings
>even though I'm aware of my flaws I demand external help
grow up faggot throw yourself at the world.
you can be yuge buddy

kek

been there, done that

>I could cruise around my neighborhood all day on a Saturday starting at age 6.

You know what I think the difference is? The neighborhood looked out for you when you were a kid. You may not have known it, but they were.

The plan for multi-culti was just starting and people had other problems. Just normal problems regular people of a country would have (how do we organize, what is better for our children, etc). International influence on important things was close to zero back then.

In my country, police and military forces were far more brutal and agressive, even when we already had a democracy.

I am 30 years old and there is a HUGE generational gap. I have absolutely nothing in common with the 20 years old generation.

They are phony, unaware, brainwashed and stupid. Nobody of my generation is like that. It may have something to do with the fact that we are older, but I don't see those kids being like us in ten years.

All my life (I'm 43) Clinton and his wife have been abusing our political system with blatant disregard. Now I see that I was wrong about the GOP, with Bush and co. Supporting Hillary I get what George Carlin said some years back (link below) except Trump is the only one practically saying what Carlin is saying...the game is rigged they all work for the special interests....it's amazing that Trump is saying it.

Tldr normie politicians are shitting the bed about Trump coming to disrupt their con game. It's amazing.

Takes one to know one, really. He knows and he is taking them to the woodshed.

Just like A. Jackson did.

I hope to god he wins and I'm atheist.

youtu.be/x6S1o3D2GiI

We're in the foxholes m8. This is it.

I forgot one important thing.

Everything was far less globalized even within the country. Someone living in a town often knew nothing about the city, and the opossite was true too.

Just imagine. No internet, no mobile phones, no facebook, no youtube, only two TV channels, far less cars, no public transport....

It was other world, really.

>it was nearly impossible to be a shut in

This is very true, and very important. Part of the reason today we have so many virgin autist manlets.

how mid fucked are all the african niggers they give computers to.
lol like giving a caveman a time machine to let them know how bush nigger they are.

Yes, of course it was. I could count on one hand the number of times I saw a muslim with a headscarf. Faggots all kept quiet about their preferences if they didn't want the shit beat out of them. Neighborhoods were mostly segregated into google and google-free areas. One time they tried to "protest" gentrification or some shit through the little italy area, and wops on rooftops with rifles put a stop to it real quick.

This was ohio in the 80's

If you think Trump is going to be any different you are crazy. Not only that, he will fuck things up so bad that you'll be praying that Obama or even Jimmy Carter was back in the oval office.

You're an idiot.

thanks ctr, for contributing nothing..again.

you can't cheat genetics, just look at his fucking beta face and paper wrists

Not ctr, just rational american trying to save my country from total disaster. Vote Hillary if you want even a chance at things getting better. Trump is a suicide vote.

Republicanas are still the enemy corporate elite establishment while the dems still pretty much are the labour party

Yeah, there was this thing called disposable cameras. They weighed a lot less than 100 ponds, you gypsey. People even took them to the bars, since they could fit in your pocket.

>Pussy or not breathing in toxic fumes increases your likelyhood to get sick.
Read and weep.

>It's everyone's fault but mine
t.nigger

Faggot nigger

Maybe where you were/ are. The 80s were intensely shallow and superficial. Rationalization was king and the goals were shit. The epitome of 'bad is good' and being a selfish, irresponsible, totally phony asshole just for the sake of being one- and getting off on it!

Between Big Religion (esp the ''charismatic'' movement) and Reagan, they set up the garden for this and nurtured it. The democrats- at the top, at least, were just as bad.

I had a great time in the 80s- the prime of my life, I guess, but I wouldn't go back there for anything. It turned my stomach then & it turns my stomach now.

Things started going to shit in the mid 70s.

Faggot gypsey

>inb4 someone says things become shit before 50s

you know, Italy used to be like this when i was a kid, i'm talking about the late 90s and early 2000s, there was much more simplicity in life, everyone was optimistic and less cynical, unlike today where everyone can't imagine a positive future no matter what.
i used to play in the streets and the parks, running around and doing whatever with my friends, niggers were weird and foreign and nobody considered the idea of massive immigration, maybe saw a couple of immigrants here and there but nothing else.
i remember i was playing with two friends one day and one of them said that he wasn't baptized, we were SHOCKED, we kept talking about it for weeks like it was the worst thing in the world, now nobody cares anymore about such things.
i remember how everyone saw islam as this far, foreign religion of the bad guys and that there were practically none around, except for a family of albanians that left in a couple of years, ugly bunch.

Fat faggot

1980's south africa was like 1950's america. Also we grew up with no tv. I think we first got tv in 1976. Can remember the first broad cast.

in america the successful murder of kennedy ushered in the end of america and it has been accelerating since that day nov 22 1963.

The multi-culti crap started in 1960s television/ pop culture, and advertising (United Colors of Beneton, Coke's Teach The World To Sing, etc)

It probably started before that with stuff like the civil rights movement. Probably back to the abolitionists- not just ''equality'' for blacks, but feminism and sexual licentiousness as well. Sick fucks.

ROODY-POO

Is anybody here old enough to do that? It's hard to imagine, either way. (I think) that was a whole different animal. (The Rockabillies kinda have the right idea, though. Imho.)

italy, you got the jew hooks into you, now you know where hitler was coming from, too bad the ego of mussolini got in the way of the ideology of nationalism. im american italian and prey for italy against the jew and their tools of destruction the rapefugees.

Ce vrei sa stii bogdan?

Am auzit ca visul american nu era un meme in trecut si vreau sa stiu daca e adevarat.

we're still relatively safe compared to countries like germany and sweden

Io spero. Siamo negli Stati Uniti stiamo guardando. viva italia!

I am not talking about america, my man. I am talking about Spain early 90's.

And yes, even here it was already started. And how it started? Introducing external influences on the culture and collective concioussness through the media (mainly coming from america, I must say).

The thing is back then, the media was not the monster that is today. As I said, we had only two TV channels and both were of public property.

You had to work to get everything. People have gone soft because of instant information.

go fuck yourself with your oldfag hugbox
