Subject: The 2010s are the worst decade ever

Written By: man 2000 on 02/17/19 at 12:34 am

Tv sucks.

Cartoons sucks.

Movies sucks.

Music sucks.

The way of life really do sucks now.

If anybody can't not see that the 2010s decade sucks really bad, then they are not really being serious about things that is happening in the world right now.

Feel free to post your thoughts on this.

Good media still exists. You just have to seek it out instead of accepting mainstream crap. Also if you think a decade sucks just because of childrens cartoons and movies, then you're 100% a manchild. ;D

I miss late 00s/early 10s shows like Revenge, Glee, American Heiress, 30Rock, Community and even the girly-ish Pretty Little Liars.  :D I liked the Dallas revival as well and some local ones.

For movies I miss the likes of High School Musical, 17 again, Love.net, Identity Thief, her etc. Now it's mostly superhero movies at the box office and even those were better in 2007-2014.

Everyone has their opinions. There is some good media left. This decade sucks big time because everything is so dumb down, I'm no manchild.  I can see how mess up things has become during this decade, mainstream is crap and that's no lie.

No, it's about your favourite/least favourite decades essentially.

Anyway, OP is wrong (IMO :P). Discovering good music has never been easier thanks to streaming services, this decade is literally called the Golden Age of Television. I don't watch cartoons personally. The movies are middle of the pack at worst, I'm guessing you didn't watch movies in the 2000s (I was sure the theatre would be dead in a few years time back then lol).

The 2010s in my opinion is not that bad. Sure, you had problems like terrorism, the Great Recession, and Smartphone overuse, but it wasn’t 100% bad...

How are shows like Big Bang Theory and Walking Dead bad?? They were fun to watch, and plus, there are a lot of good movies like Interstellar and Deadpool, and The Force Awakens, and the 2010s is the True digital age, and I’d say its the golden age for technology. Music was obviously autotuned, but if you hear Ariana Grande or Shawn Mendes’ voices, they’re actually still good without autotune, and Shawn Mendes, Ed Sheeran, Ariana Grande, Drake, Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, they all made good music- I mean some songs would not be that good, like some of Ari’s, or JB’s songs, but that’s just my opinion. I do agree that the 2010s are the worst part for Hip hop music with mumble rap, but you have Kendrick, J Cole, Logic, Drake, and Eminem saving the rap game. EDM might sound too cheesy to you, but once again, EDM is what Disco was in the 70s, because Disco was an escape from economic issues, and EDM could also work for that, as it helps people fight depression. You also had fun games like GTA 5, Fortnite, Overwatch, Minecraft, any freaking game!

If you think the 2010s are bad, go back to the 1930s with the Great Depression. You think that’s better? Even the 1940s are worse, World War 2 happened, and you had to fight for the war, and even if you were not part of it, you we’re still in danger. Like I mentioned 4 times, the 80s/90s are not perfect either, the Cold War, Gulf War, AIDS crisis, 1992 LA Riots, the 80s/90s had problems too!

Just stop thinking about the worst of the 2010s, and you’ve already made a thread like this earlier, so again, lock for decadeology! Man, since when did the 80s not have problems?! People in the 80s probably wanted to live in the 1950s too, and people in the World War 2 era probably wanted to live in the roaring 20s, it’s just opinion, not facts.

My argument is valid and more so then youres. Adventure time is not awesome and  is nothing but pure garbage.

To be honest no decade is perfect, because they all have their ups and downs. The 80s/90s weren't perfect but they were still better then this water down crappy decade, this decade is not good at all and anybody who has sense can see that it really does sucks.

I agree with the OP this decade was terrible but there were a few good moments I can look back and remember in my life for sure especially the years 2017, 2013, and 2015. But all in all if we are talking about culture and society in general, yeah this is the worst decade ever for that from start to finish.  8-P

It's true people said the same for the 2000s and called it "the decade of hell". But all that proves is that decades get progressively worse as time goes on. I'm sure people many people will love and miss the 2010s when we are in the apocalyptic 2030s lol. But it doesn't mean the decade was good and better than the past in terms of culture and music and everything else. At least that's the way I see it.

Good media still exists. You just have to seek it out instead of accepting mainstream crap. Also if you think a decade sucks just because of childrens cartoons and movies, then you're 100% a manchild. ;D
OP isn't the only person to hate the 2010s. Even foregoing the mainstream stuff, the more obscure stuff is hard to keep because people are choosing more to stream content than let people keep copies of it (e.g. Spotify, Netflix, Apple Music, Tidal, Crunchyroll etc.). I will concede that one animated series now sucks this decade but it more has to do with how that individual animated series changed.
Otherwise, my beef with the 2010s is that music tends to be rather bland (even if I spoke no English I'd make the same comment) and that fashion looks more gender non-conforming than in the previous decade. Thankfully, with the exception of the late 2010s and in various countries still, politics and people are more accepting of difference.

being forced to be online for the remaining years of your high school (for the classes of 2020/2021) sucks
being forced to get a new phones (even though the phone you have is fine) because "5G" sucks
Anyway my point is there is much more to a decade than music, tv ,cartoons and if you think about the 20s are (somewhat) worse because COVID pushing us more into a dyspoain future than anticipated.

oh and PS back in earlier in 2022 my little sister who recently graduated high school tired applied for a job at a simple retail job, and upon getting the interview, she was told she had to do some laborious process of interviewing a computer  from random some third party firm and this was because "COVID" and all other excuses for employers being lazy not to wanting to hire real  people to conduct personal interviews, anyway that same place never did this in 2019. just something to think about, in some ways I miss the 2010s ::)

oh and PS back in earlier in 2022 my little sister who recently gruadated high school tired applied for a job at a simple retail job, and upon getting the interview, she was told she had to do some laborious process of interviewing a computer from a third party firm that is known to use advanced facial recognition (oh and did I mention you HAD to have a phone or computer with a CAMERA) and this was because "COVID" and all other excuses for employers being lazy not to wanting to hire real  people to conduct personal interviews, anyway that same place never did this in 2019, heck I remeber when I was a teenager in the 2015-2017 where a lot Jobs in my area were still accepting PAPER applications. despite 2010s being "tech advanced"  this being "forced" to use invasive products BS would never fly in 2017 despite the ubiquitous use of smartphones. just something to think about, in some ways I miss the 2010s ::)


Man, you must really come from a backwards place.  Or weren't looking for a job. Online applications and ATS (applicant tracking system) software have been in common use for over a decade at least, and certainly in the 2015-2017 time frame you discuss.  Even for lower level jobs.

By the way, for those of you actually looking for jobs, and without the cranky, middle aged attitude, and who actually want to function in today's society, here's an informative article on how to submit an ATS-friendly resume. Or to at least let you know what you're up against.

well yeah, you right i wasn't really allowed to use the internet until 2011+ or so and I didn't get my first phone(s) until 2016 and I like to keep stuff as long as possible so all this COVID stuff that changed everything caused a shell shock for me as I am used to the "old" way of doing things

oh I'm sorry is it a crime to express my frustrations with modern tech sometimes without being put in a certain cateriogy and do you really think I THAT stupid to abounded technology you can't live in this world without a computer let alone a smartphone I am not Ted Kaczynski and if I was I wouldn't be typing this stuff. Anyway lets back it up I was talking about one way Video Interviews not ATS sorry (paper applications are a BAD EXAMPLE) if I wasn't clear when I ramble my crititcal thinking skills go out the window and I end up sounding like a crazy person I get that  alot the third party firm were dealing with is Hireview (https://www.hirevue.com/), MANY BIG Companies (like NBC, Warner Bros, Goldman Sachs, Etc.) have used this for A LONG TIME and there on posts be discussed about it reddit and other forum dating back to 2014-15, and trust me if this was My dream job I would not mind doing this but since where talking about a low wage RETAIL JOB and they are using biased AI computer interview system to determine candides and not using REAL human beings and how it works is you turn on your webcam(in which they deeply facial regitional which COULD be biased)  and interview a computer and do a whole bunch uncessry question which could otherwise be propley determine by a human (links: https://www.reddit.com/r/recruitinghell/comments/5zttk8/i_fudgeing_hate_hirevue_video_interviews/, https://old.reddit.com/r/recruitinghell/comments/nj5j01/i_refused_a_digital_interview/) my beef with this is that they utilize AI (which we all know AI can be biased) and the process IMO is very dehumanizing and gives me more anxiety than going to a human to do this. Not trying to be rude but before you assume I am "middle aged" and post a link that totally irrelevant to what I was saying (which is my fault btw, sorry), i don't want to live in a world where this is common and AI replace natural human interaction, tech is cool and all (I love smartphones, computer, IOT) but this is going too far in my opinion especially since this job my sister applied too is not significant and I pretty sure this company can hire many good recruits to do the job of interviewing but they choose not which is infuriating. So I hope we can come to an understanding and hopefully after reading (if you do) this you don't completely miss what I was saying and start making up assumptions (again, initially my fault I am sorry) (and yes I am aware that ATS use AI to filter applications as well), I'll edit my post to reflect clarity 

Oh and btw, this is not a "middle aged" issue I actually care about my freedoms and rights as human beings and being treated like a number by computer (AI) and then who do a video that will we can possibly discriminated not cool. also in my post I said as clear as day I used an iPhone a "middle-aged" tech phonic person would still be stuck in the early-2000s with their flip phone because SMartPhoNES SUCK and their "unnecessary" apparently ::) as they would refuse to use iPhones (or any smartphone) no matter the generation unlike many other people I appreciate the tech that was already given to us and not dispose of something that already works, you know how expensive phones are to repair nowadays? OLED screens can cost you up to $USD200 in that case you just I have buy another phone at that point and I fix my own stuff mind you, oh and one last thing if I got something wrong in this big ass wall of text tell me because from the links and posts I read even tech norimes/and beginner tech geeks (like myself who are still learning) have their "limit", so tell me I said wrong (if anything) and prove to me you know as much as you claim to know about tech, teach me.  Again, not trying to be rude but I hope we can clear up this mis-understanding, if this forum knows how to that sort of thing ::) and yes I know most of those articles are from 2019 but if you know how to read what I wrote this specific company I was talking about was not using this software prior to COVID. OK I am done. :) 
Good Day

oh sheesh😳  I just reazlied why you got pissed off with me, okay What I said recently about music, tv, not mattering rant my fault I get that different people have different views on decades and I didn't mean to berate or antagonize the OP in any way so... my apologies @man2000  (IF your still active), so now I DO understand what you mean by sounding "middle-aged"😂,  I guess they way I worded things  sounded antagonistic and you came in and defended that person (which is good,btw). I guess this website is not for me as I have a more "political" view of the decades and I don't really pay to much to hollywood which is what this site focuses on. I'm the dumbass here  😜.I'll see my way out☮

Good media still exists. You just have to seek it out instead of accepting mainstream crap. Also if you think a decade sucks just because of childrens cartoons and movies, then you're 100% a manchild. ;D

Agreed LOL no wonder why this sites dead. but in all seriousness  you have to understand to site appeals to a more "mainstream" audience which is more focus on hollywood/american pop culture  from "recentish" decades so all the responses in regards to decades will be  catered to american celebrities/ hollywood, etc. I should of read that before I put all my dumbass responses here that don't really fit the overall narrative of this site, if a mod is reading this feel free to remove all my posts and ban my account, I feel like i messed up the "groove" of this site. OP is not a manchild, they just really like hollywood movies/mainstream music which in this post they feel that the 2010s decade of hollywood movies/music is several lacking which if fine it's not different than my previous post I made on cell phones I think 2020s cell phones are serval lacking for example. I'm not into hollywood and all that sheesh but do keep in mind that if response doesn't fit a sites/forum narrative you will get berated to hell like I just did earlier  :) :) :).

Sorry to drag this thread own but did you respond this way because you thought I was female/woman? (NOT Assuming anything about anyone) sometimes I do respond to things emotionally and my username kind of didn't help much initially so a lot of people of forums I've been to assume I am the opposite sex because of this (not saying their sexist) and my username kind of hinted towards that as well. because if I initially said I was male I felt like you would called me "crazy" or at least would have worked out a miscommunication in my initial dialogue of my ignorant statements and we would have come to an agreement like you did with other male users on here (again not assuming anything). I just want to know dude, did you think I was a 30-50 year old "middle aged" woman? (I don't blame you, btw😂) because I like how you said "middle-aged" but did not add "Man".

oh and p.s. I'm aware might get a warning  or banned for this, sorry I'm just VERY Curious because I've read Voiceofthe70s posts at at work the other day and their a genius!!! so I'm eager to get a response from this guy

Also a lot of older men (or men in general) that rant online usually get their space to rant (regardless of topic) and a lot of women would want get called "old" or "middle-aged" because they already have emotional support which a lot of people assume. But I really want to know, I'm curious.

Nope. Knew that you were a male, that you were older than the 21 you claimed to be, and that you have been here before under other names.  It's recognizable.
