Kids with mullets in the back of a ute? That’s just this year in Adelaide.

There's so much good 80's stuff I'm not sure why anyone would bother.

Rage, that's why. its all to generate views

A very heavily biased article, discrediting that many people's lifes were indeed better in 1985.

Who is this article written for? Who do you try to reach that way? Why sow division?

You're only going to reach people if you actually help them have a better outlook in life. Writing incisive articles like that is not gonna do any good.

I’ve said for a while that WW3 will start because of a meme. But now I feel like WW3 will start because of a band AI video taken seriously by the boomers.

If there is nothing to love and hope for, people start to cling to memories of better times, if only perceived better ones.

I have a dream!

That's based on tropes from an era we've already lived through.

We need to work together!

To to backwards.

Dare to dream. Be somebody.

I'm losing my edge to the art-school Brooklynites in little jackets and borrowed nostalgia for the unremembered eighties
