I saw a conversation here where someone thought homophobia wasn't that bad in the 90s.

I had someone else say they didn't remember any anti-Japanese racism in Australia in the 90s. I being on the receiving end of it would remember it pretty strongly, but to forget it entirely?

Just really poor memory

(History? I guess this is history subbear. Given how much people seem to misinterpret events happening now, what does that say about writing of events at the tim?)

    Big oof. People just don't remember how much worse the recent past was, at least in a lot of the West.

      It's change, some people just don't put a lot of thought and follow the society. I believe it's the same these days, in the future we will look back in disbelief.
