As you were saying, there was a moment where like this stuff had actually kind of calmed down and then it comes back with a vengeance.

cultural and political things that were happening during certain years like 2022 xyz or 2020 when biden you know was elected or whatever i personally am a covid never happened truther um but i typically use it to mean march anything after march 2020 is basically sort of this new world that we're in and i think the world fundamentally changed

Much like the name of this show.

Exactly.

A hundred percent.

And this like immediate new world.

So like let's go March 2020 to like sometime around the end of 2022 is a really interesting moment because TikTok is sort of at its peak.

Elon Musk is sniffing around Twitter.

He will eventually buy it in October of 2022.

And one of the interesting edge cases of like pre and post Elon Twitter is the the little plant mommy discourse.

Do you remember this?

Oh, yeah.

So for those who don't remember, basically this woman named Daisy Miller posts on Twitter when it's still like the last days of when it was still Twitter that she enjoys having coffee in the garden with her husband.

And the entire Internet decides that they're going to murder her and that she's a classist and that she should go to jail.

This is a sampling of what people were saying to her.

This is cute and all, but did you think of all the people who wake up to work grueling hours, wake up on the streets alone with chronic pain before posting this?

You should be mindful next time before bragging about your picture-perfect life.

You might upset someone.

Someone else said, I wake up every day with chronic pain and wash my OCD medication down with an iced oat milk latte, but whatever, potato, potato, am I right?

And it's just a lot of people being like, how dare you?
