>>21106045>Coasting on the last dregs of decent Western civilizationIt was okay. Wokism was still somewhat suppressed, the worst was the now universal tokenism in everything, but this outright overt war on White people wasn't quite there yet.
Lots of tutting and shaming for Jew narratives about slavery, jim, crow, the poor thirdies, slight guilt-complexing over them being poor while we were still somewhat peaceful and wealthy.
But the outright unrestrained anti-White hatred? The systemic dispossession of Whites? The absolute decay of everything? Shitskins everywhere? Corporate capitalism having turned everything into a miserable slaveshow? Not quite.

It's probably best Gen-Z hardly remember it and Gen-Alpha not at all.
Society was sort of like the initial period after the Titanic had hit the iceberg.
There were warning signs to be sure, 9/11 and the following forever wars were a indicator things weren't well, but nobody was panicking. The band was still playing. Snacks were still being handed out and most people weren't worried.
