I made a small carve-out for the 2010s in my post and also any nostalgia movements that do resurface are going to be heavily revisionist to the point that they deny any connections to prior nostalgia cycles, such as pretending synth-pop was invented in the 2010s or something.
We’re not going to get cycles of nostalgia anymore, they’re all going to overlap until people literally die out of them. Simultaneously, we’re going to have '80s, ‘90s’ 2000s resurgences into the future. Maybe a 2010s one. But there will be nothing after that because everything after that is just a blend of the previous eras in some form.
There’s a Sopranos episode where Chris off-handedly mentions wanting to steal trucks filled Pokemon cards or something. I think they end up getting a truck filled with Centrum Multivitamins.
Starting an Incel Pay-It-Forward style social movement where once one guy gets a GF he has to arrange at least 3 more successful dates via the girlfriend and we keep this going until everyone’s in love.
I’m following the ideology of the new mega and increasingly understanding that leftists should be pro-war against the imperialist-fascists who always exploit peace for their benefit until they don’t require it anymore. The peace the west has had since WW2 has been used to create a literal propaganda machine (LLMs), even more mass-destruction and war devices, further destroy and empty the planet of its resources, ideologically pacify millions of people and destroy unions, etc.
Maybe instead of being an imperialist who wants the downfall of a small opponent to the global hegemon they should be wanting war with the most evil people on the planet instead?
