We will be doing the same thing for the 90s soon.

[CalRobert]

The nineties were the last time I remember a real sense of optimism in the future

[FuriouslyAdrift]

It was the end of the Cold War and the beginning of the Internet Age

[CalRobert]

Climate change was still a distant worry too

[krapp]

Nostalgia tends to follow a 20 year cycle, so we'e already done that. People are doing it for the 2000s now.

[jhbadger]

And for over half of a decade already! The award-winning 2017 movie "Ladybird" was a nostalgic look at that distant year of 2002!

[whilenot-dev]

I wonder when we'll ever become nostalgic for anything after 2007...

[Aardwolf]

Nostalgia for those good old times of quarantining in 2020

[lazide]

The traffic was amazing.

Disney is already remaking movies from the early 2000s. But maybe it's just because they ran out of material.

[IAmBroom]

Don't underestimate a few incompetent leaders.

There's NOTHING that can't ruin.

[brookst]

I miss being nostalgic for the 80’s

[unstablediffusi]

bro I missed 2019 for almost six years now

[FrustratedMonky]

Yes.

Something not 'polite' to talk about.

But when Russia invaded Ukraine, there was a surge in Nostalgia for 80's/90's Cold War era, Russia is the enemy culture.

Like 'Red Dawn', etc...

[larrled]

Not nostalgia. Putin is what he is. Movies about hitler aren’t nostalgic. Germany under Hitler was an “enemy culture” no? We must never minimize the global disdain for Russia under Putin. How many have died? Nostalgia just isn’t the right word, or it shouldn’t be.

[FrustratedMonky]

Maybe shouldn't be, but that doesn't mean it isn't.

Nostalgia for a time in the past, but bad things can trigger feelings from the past.

So not Nostalgia for "we really miss when Russia was great".

More like Nostalgia for 99 Luft Balloons, the song, that also came out at same time. And was part of Cold War Culture.
