People are making the 2010s to be more liberal than it actually was.

I feel like people are already misinterpreting the 2010s already in which I see some people are making it seem as if the 2010s was completely culturally left-wing from start to finish and act like Magaism only rose in the 2020s, mainly from 2022-2023 onwards. Some people are seemingly forgetting that Magaism existed in the latter half of the 2010s and think that the decade was completely "liberal" from start-to-finish.

If you're thinking that I am exaggerating my claims, I see some people use phrases like "2010s pop feminism," "2010s-era liberalism," people calling the 2010s the "woke era," and so on nowadays, which implies that the 2010s were completely liberal which wasn't the case. I'm surprised that people are making misconceptions about the 2010s already even though the decade was fairly recent.

Even before the rise of the MAGA movement, you had Gamergate, the Tea Party movement, 4chan, the "Obama is Muslim" conspiracy theory, and other things that show that even 2010-2014 wasn't completely liberal either. Some people nowadays act as if Magaism rose in a vacuum which wasn't the case, it's as if people are forgetting the Magaism of the 2010s already.

March 10, 2020 was closer to September 16, 2008 than to March 11, 2020.

On March 10, 2020, people were hipsters listening to LMFAO and using Facebook on their iPod touches. On March 11, 2020, they became TikTok zombies who used ChatGPT!

Hot take: The 2020s have better pop culture than the late 2010s.

I'm not sure if it's just me, but I prefer the aesthetics, fashion and the music of this decade compared to that of the late 2010s.
