I thought the 90’s grunge era with a bunch of miserable, dirty, loser heroin addict frontmen was a pretty massive step in making the cultural direction we’re currently in more mainstream. Maybe it wasn’t one event, but I think it was a major shift from kids wanting to be cool in some capacity to wanting to fit in by imitating a bunch of guys who were filthy, burned out, miserable anti-establishment hippies and died at 30 years old from either suicide or heroin overdose

Have you never heard of Hippies?

Oh, and those are boomers and Gen X, 2 of the most conservative voting populations today

It was just a symptom of the angst and self loathing from the previous goths and other castaways.

The 80s is when social deterioration went on blast.

Yeah, BUT at least the music they put out was awesome. Not like the complete garbage being turned out for the last 20+ years.
