Since we are halfway through the 2020s I was wondering what you think some of the most consequential moments of the decade are?
Here is my choices:
>January 6th
It wasn’t consequential in the way that the people who did it got in trouble but it was in the way that it solidified that as long as you are good for the American upper class then you can do whatever you want.
>Elon Twitter Takeover
Unbanning every Neo-Nazi on the most used social media platform accelerated the rise of gamer-gate politics into the mainstream
>October 7
This was used as an excuse for Israel to commit genocide and in the west REAL antisemitism exploded in the months following in the west.
>Elon Nazi-Salute
Solidified the normalization of Nazism in the mainstream media
>Putin-Trump meetup
Solidified the decline of the American Empire
Unfortunately there are no good ones here except maybe the Putin one, hopefully the election of Mamdani will Make this list in the next 5 years.
Not counting COVID either February 24, 2022 or October 7, 2023 easily
Bro it is actually insane that you think all that spectacle shit matches up with Ocŧ 7
>>740593OP should have just said Trump's inauguration instead of Elon's salute and included the salute as part of it. Because Trump did immediately move to start breaking shit right after it
i was gonna say trump winning his first election because that was the culmination of decades of simmering aimless labor aristocrat and petite bourgeois discontent in the USA and it was the point when USA fascism start to gradually operate openly and shamelessly which in my opinion gave permission for other fascists around the world to do the same; but that was in 2016. uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh besides that? in the 2020s? probably the two most important events have been russia reigniting their with ukraine in 2022 and october 7. those have been the most consequential globally i think. i coiuld be wrong though what the fuck do i know
>>740595Your probably right, I was mostly trying to go for iconic/infamous photographs
15 March 2026
>>740591Trump assassination attempt
>>740749This was so surreal witnessing it live, the day the multipolar world was born
