What was society like before 9/11?
What was society like before 9/11?
Any society with Jews is a terrible place
Besides cell phones and degenerate social media, it was the same.
You could get totally fucked on drugs at a music festivals and not get filmed.

What?
Beautiful
Tell that to the young'uns in Woodstock.
4 bucks a gallon. 20 gal. Makes sense
Less Hispanics for some reason.
For america? Great. For the rest of the world? Not so great. The world is living a pretty good phase now, specifically Brazil.
>Some reason
Elaborate

The internet was fun, Lan Parties were a thing. Starcraft, Warcraft II, Text based RPG, fuck that was a good era. To me, you couldn't get ANY cooler than the first The Fast and the Furious movie.
To go further, the Japanese have this whole outward concept of "cool" that the USA had going on hardcore pre 9-11 and then 9-11 fucked it all up. Gave rise to SJWism and shit. It's fucked.
Houses were cheaper, gas was cheaper, the grass was greener.
T. Califoirnian.
Really? All the Brazilians I know tell me what a shitshow there homeland is.
it was full of tall people
or maybe its because I was like 10, don't remember
You could actually smoke in bars.
Yup. It was a lot of fun....anything could happen.
Literally millions of illegals pouring over the border given kid glove treatment because muh identity politics. To enforce existing law is racist.
Mfw liberals realize they are family oriented Christians that only think there are 2 genders
Yeah, but what did 9/11 have to do with any of it?
Nothing I suppose. Late 90s early 00s was the beginning of the massive wave to come. Just responding to another user
you didn't have to show up 2 hours before your flight to be fisted by a TSA agent, you could meet your family at the terminal as they walked off the plane. You could go to the airport and have lunch at the terminal even if you didn't have a flight. You could fly your own plane just about anywhere.
The big changes are YouTube and cheap camera phones.
Their impact on society has been HUGE, on all things, including politics.
if you were going to say goodbye to your people at the airport, you could go as far as near the plane itself and wave at each other
Pretty much the same just not as severe, anyone who wants the world to be like the 50'/90s/etc is basically a meth addict who wants their life to be the way it was but still have meth. Look at all the replies already mentioning hedonism and cheaper things.
you could park you car next to your airplane on the tarmac of any airport in the nation and only have to pay ram fees.
9/11 was like an innocent girl getting raped. The Global Financial Crisis was her, now with psychological damage from the rape, deciding to become a stripper/escort to make ends meet. It's not that the world was better in the 90s, but it was more real, more sane, less stupid. All of the lines have been blurred.
I am so glad I made it through school before Columbine! I was a senior in high school when Columbine happened and schools were never the same. I never had to deal with metal detectors, school cops, locker searches, or fucking see-through back packs! I felt so bad for the kids in school after I graduated.
FRIENDLY REMINDER THAT THIS IS A SLIDE AND DATA MINING THREAD CREATED BY SHARTBOOBOO/ ALPHABET AGENCIES. SAGE GOES IN ALL FIELDS.
Yeah, Columbine was funny and all but they really fucked things up for everybody else. Used to be they'd just break up fistfights and maybe send kids to the principle or home. Now they lawyer up and call the cops.
I just miss the country being mostly white
I do too senpai, but if things keep going the way they are people will idolize this time period for being great in 20 years.
No one had ever heard "Allah Akbar" or "Jihad" before
Airport Security took like 3 seconds to walk through
