2011 was our last year of normal

[ロボ﹏§¤r﹏h¶rœ]

And the Internet as we know it breathed its last breath on 5th September 2022.

You can do everything in accordance with the law, pay your taxes, remove threats of murder from your site, but you will still be executed extra-judicially China-style if you allow INCONVENIENT discussions and INCONVENIENT information-gathering on convenient people. Do you still think ours is a free internet as opposed to the one in China? Think again. It's heading into the same direction and accelerating fast.

The degree of collusion between state, private and media actors makes them indistinguishable. It has come to the point that a gossip site is deemed a national threat and must be silenced at any costs. If you still make a fuss, we are rich enough and powerful enough to make foreigners listen to us and do our bidding (Russian DDoS-Guard bailed out, yet they are totally fine providing services to doxbin and a myriad of sites with illegal content). The era of freedom is over. It's only going downhill from here, into a dystopia of factory-produced glitzy navel-gazing content that can be botted and commercialised into oblivion, with no genuinity, no novelty, no right to opinion. Consume and die. Do as you are told. Don't think. Your masters know what's best for you.

That every netizen is not lamenting what has transpired is a testament to the inferiority of our species and how its hard-wired group-think and sheep-like mentality will be its downfall.

The question is not even when it got insane, the question is how deep in shit we are right now?

I, for one, stoped believing we would ever get a glimpse of "normality" of 2018/19. I think its basically over for most of us, and the winter will be the last staw. Energy blackouts, lockdowns and bugs for meat. We would be forcibly pushed into neofeudalism without any hope.

I feel very doomed and don't think we can get out if it without proper and bloodied riots worldwide, and this will not be pretty either.

The trick is that most people are already neofeudalist serfs, paying their masters to live in their concrete boxes and work themselves to death to pay off their loans.

We're still in a society where in a lot of the west, a not insignificant portion of the populace can coast their whole lives off of government gibs. We aren't quite there yet, I do agree partially however. A large amount of people work their asses off only to have their taxes feed those peoples lives.

Nah, the last year of normal was 2001, the problem is underage niggerfaggots who werent old enough to remember how good things used to be. All the shit happening now is a direct result of all the dicksucking of dubya that amerilars did willingly after he literally let 9/11 happen

No there were no holographic planes, there were no crisis actors, there was no remote control, the real conspiracy is that they knew 9/11 was going to happen and they willingly let it happen because it would help to bring about their long term plans. Some say that what they didnt expect was the towers would actually collapse, they thought the planes would merely damage them like it happened to the pentagon, and when those collapsed some in the bush admin thought they were fucked but the amerilard public instead got on their knees and started sucking dick as bush passed the fuck you in the ass laws and 20 years later those same fat fucks chanting MURRICA and simping for halliburton are getting their lives destroyed by those laws for wearing a red hat made in china

The og iphone was an expensive piece of shit with slow edge internet that didnt even run apps, just a browser because that hippie faggot with cancer running apple said that was good enough. Smartphones wouldnt take off until many years later and the damage from social media was already happening before that

Still it was not organic, this shit didnt happen by mere chance, much like the war on terror it was orchestrated. The latter was to avoid the end of the cold war fucking the arms industry, the former was to keep occupy wall street from becoming an actual threat since they were asking for the kind of reforms that would end the party for many billionaires. So they literally paid turbofaggots, feminist cunts, professional race baiters and other certified insane assholes to crash that. It worked, ows was destroyed in a couple weeks, and so they kept pouring that social AIDS everywhere to make sure the plebs wouldnt get uppity again, and after covid and the 2020 election I dare anyone here to say it didnt work

While it's just one piece of the puzzle, the Smith–Mundt Act was amended in 2012 to carve out the use of domestic propaganda, possibly with the use of public funds. Courtrooms freak me out, so I'm a retard layman when it comes to this and that's just my interpretation. But the timeline fits with OP, IMO.

The juicy bit seems to be how section 208 - "Clarification on domestic distribution of program material" was amended to read, which describes the carve-out.

(b) Rule of Construction- Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit the Department of State or the Broadcasting Board of Governors from engaging in any medium or form of communication, either directly or indirectly, because a United States domestic audience is or may be thereby exposed to program material, or based on a presumption of such exposure. Such material may be made available within the United States and disseminated, when appropriate, pursuant to sections 502 and 1005 of the United States Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948 (22 U.S.C. 1462 and 1437), except that nothing in this section may be construed to authorize the Department of State or the Broadcasting Board of Governors to disseminate within the United States any program material prepared for dissemination abroad on or before the effective date of the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012.

about ''uppity plebs'' - the last peasant riot in a western country over the economy and shitty wages was in 2011 of all years in the United Kingdom. I remember seeing the riots on TV in Canada and the cause for them given by the media was completely veiled. They never mentioned why people were rioting in England.. which I thought was strange. Something did not add up.

The US did not have one riot related to economics during that time period. Curiously enough the only riots in the US have been race riots even during the 2020 pandemic and mass economic ruin the only issue the masses could identify was ''racism''. That's some serious fucking mind control. Racism seems to be used as a tool to redirect people's attention from economic woe's quite easily. As with gender and now abortion bans. Just another distraction.

Its weird when people reference the 2007 meme when it comes to the smart phone and its destruction of the old Internet because I feel they became ubiquitous only a decade ago along with social media such as Twitter but it didn't take off until a little later. Definitely all post 2010. Maybe the Mayans were right and the world metaphysically died in 2012.

You're probably right about 2012. The Elmo scandal from that year just might have been the first time I started questioning whether or not I was in the right timeline (though I haven't lost any respect for Kevin Clash, sex addiction can mess up anyone)

 

[Dom Cruise]

I would put the timeline as thus.

2011 was the last year things were fully normal up until late in the year when people started to voice their discontent with OWS.
2012 was still mostly normal save for Anita got on her soapbox, Trayvon Martin was shot and Here Comes Honey Boo Boo made it clear just how stupid American culture had gotten, things were still by and large very normal though.
2013 was still mostly normal except it was becoming clearer that third wave feminism was a thing and not going away and the Zimmerman trial verdict is when blacks started to have really bad fucking attitudes.
2014 is when it really became obvious trouble was brewing, GamerGate made it clear how ugly things were getting between men and women and Ferguson is when blacks' discontent really started to explode, Zimmerman was one thing but when it suddenly became about the police there was a massive, massive shift in tone, this was also the year of cancel culture really starting to become a thing.
2015 things are still fairly normal, but BLM is gaining steam, Confederate flags are being taken down, Trump announces his candidacy and third wave feminists continue to be entitled, annoying cunts, meanwhile Charlie Hebdo, the refugee crisis and the Bataclan terrorist attack is when the cracks really start to show in the Obama era dream of a multicultural, multiethnic western world.
2016 is when the dam finally breaks, Trump gets the nomination, people start to lose their fucking minds in the build up to the election and when Trump wins it's game over, the world we all grew up in died.
2017 the Woke mind virus is now fully formed, galvanized and sets out to conquer every single aspect of life.
2020 shit's already fucking bad and Covid makes it go from bad to 1000 times worse.

And now here we are, over the course of a decade, piece by piece the modern world collapsed into the insane clown world we have today, the last decade has been an unmitigated disaster for the human race, possibly setting us up for our species end, we've lost our minds, we've lost the plot, there's pretty much nowhere good we could be headed.

The og iphone was an expensive piece of shit with slow edge internet that didnt even run apps, just a browser because that hippie faggot with cancer running apple said that was good enough.

Smartphones are indeed a 2010s phenomena, the first iphone may have come out in 2007 but almost no one had one, no one I knew had one, smart phones really didn't start to gain any steam until 2009 at the earliest, I didn't get my first one until 2010.

Twitter on the other hand was already getting to be fairly popular by 2008 and especially was a thing by 2009, but no one used it for politics in those days.

I feel like 2014 was still fairly normal, but 2015/2016 is when people seemed to lose their souls. There just seems to be something really off about most people now, they feel like NPCs, I've talked to a lot of others who have noticed it too.

Its been a small incroachment of quality of life since the Federal Reserve was founded.

Founding of the fed
WWII and the government colluding with the mob and other figures to get intel.
Post-WWII and the founding of our favorite three letter orgs
JFK Assassination
Nixon taking us off the gold standard.
Reagan opening up the boarder for illegals
Clinton signs NAFTA. Thus more jobs move to china and other low paying countries
9/11

There is something to say that our current way of life began in 2007, as that 4chan post talked about.

Things began to accelerate after Dubya left office & Obaman and the dems took power. It was a slow burn at first. Then once the pieces were put in place, Obama's second term turned up the heat. Then Trump's win made the dems panic. More heat applied. Now we're here.

I don't think its one giant plan from day 1. Just people wanting power and using the foundation laid before them to gain more and more. Its probably gotten worse as the leaders have gotten older and their echo chambers have gotten more feedback from the removal of other voices that would disagree with them.

Or, you know....

This is true fren. I came here to say September 10th 2001 was the last normal day we had as a country. Now we get our balls cupped every time we fly, our data is recorded and saved forever, we are involved in endless wars that devalue our currency, et al. To say the 2000’s were good completely negates the beauty of the 90’s when the internet was just being introduced and the 70’s and 80’s when you went out riding your bike and had to be home before the street lights came on. Times were simpler back then.
