What? The 80s had a billion things going on. What happened in the 80s created the 90s though.
Look at music. Does anything inspire you? post 80s its anti feeling basically, a message of "we don't have any answers, lost and confused" best examples of this would be Radiohead and Coldplay.
Films are the same way. How come all modern day high art film's deal with the same feeling of numbness and lost feeling.
Politics. God, can we find people that are inspiring and who have any sort of vision? I don't even care if its a left or a right person, which is the problem, we're now suppose to believe that the left and right doesn't exist and we're all in a post partisan age, which of course leads to more 'we have no direction' feeling, nothing to get behind. "radical centre" aka neo-liberalism. It's like Novocaine.
Architecture. What the hell is exactly Post Modernism? What comes after this period? Nothing of course, because we have been fundamentally taught that we've reached the pinnacle.
Everything is now the 'information age' which just leads to isolation and numbness of everything, we've all become cynical. It's like a shot of Novocaine. There's nothing really to get up for in the morning.
ugh.
