Unpopular Opinions

May I ask why you don’t miss 2016? Just wondering.

I feel like that's when things went downhill for almost everyone. If my memory serves me correct, i remember almost EVERYONE hating 2016 at the present time, and lots of shitty memes came too.
I mean, people hated 2015, hated 2012, hated 2008, hated 2000, but? These years were not hated to the same amount to the point they became memes.
2016 hate was EVERYWHERE. 2016 is also when depression and sūicide rates exploded, memes started to rule the internet and thus became unbalanced, we'd get them when we don't want them, depression was both, common and a big meme. There were some people who were genuinely depressed and some people who made memes of their depression. Depression was not a big meme in the past, but it's true that not everyone took it seriously.
Memes kind of kill the charm and seriousness of things, if that makes sense. Memes make depression, which is SERIOUS, not look serious, which is very harmful.

One thing i can agree on, it was worse in the 1960's and earlier, people were sent to the psychiatric hospitals or something just for being depressed, and depression was not taken seriously by majority of people back then. That is hard to overlook. People should be supported, not judged, because judging puts people DOWN, not up, and more afraid to open up in fears of being judged.

I do NOT hate Pokémon, but i really dislike Pokémon GO, it gave people a reason to go outside, but without that, they weren't going outside? Dumb thought. Going outside is HEALTHY, and going outside to be on your phone is pretty dumb. Pokémon games are fun, but Pokémon GO is a bit bland to me, and some people say Pokémon GO while talking about Pokémon the original franchise. I don't like phone games in general. People can enjoy it if they want, but Pokémon GO just does not have that same charm Pokémon games do.
The internet and technology have advanced, but they kinda lost their SOUL, if that makes sense. Things were never perfect, people have always complained and always will. Every time has a pro and a con, and sometimes, pros outweigh the cons, and cons outweigh the pros.


Just my opinion. I sincerely apologize if i offended anyone with any possible biased or one-sided views and if i made no sense. I remember strongly disliking 2016, and i would NEVER want to relive that year, because logically, we don't want to get back to the bad things, bad places and bad times. I wanted to write a longer comment, so i may not sound very detailed.
