Ronald Reagan wiping his arse with the USSR was the high water mark for America.

Uhhh, what year do you think the Rodney King riots happened?
It’s always incredible to me how some people’s assessments of current events are often completely void of historical context.
The world will turn folks. The country has seen far worse.

Pinnacle was 60's, 70's thru Reagan. Keeping liberals at bay is our only hope. MAGA.

Very weird definition of "pinnacle of human civilization"

All great powers in the history of the world have fallen at some point and it will happen to the USA at some point.

People said the same in the late 60s and we are still here. Oh, and the riots then made these look like popcorn farts.

Maybe you just have a shitty memory.

If you were born in the 1980's you missed America's best by about 40 years.

We’re you in a coma during your preteen/teenage years?
Just off the top of my head:
The LA riots
The Olympic bombing
Waco/Branch Davidians
Columbine

Unless you answered “yes” to the question above...

1999. The peak of your civilization. Because after you created the soi bois and SIMPs it really became their civilization didn't it?

It’s a good thing trumps gonna make America great again.

I was raised in the 60s and 70s. It was like Mayberry compared to where we are now.

The older I get the more I realize most everything has happened before and very, very few events are actually unique or special.

You must have grown up in some pussy 80s area..sounds like somebody never had to use their bike chain as a weapon.

This right here. You could probably take our Y2K and substitute it for the war in the Middle East.
Anybody who thinks this is bad should watch the Reginald Denny video.

Baton Rouge in the 80s was pretty tight. It's an 80s kinda place. As the old saying goes, they built that city on rock n roll.
