The 2010s are more like the 1980s in certain aspects. I don’t see a lot of similarities between the 1960s and 2010s with the exception of political upheaval and racial tensions but hell every decade has that, look at the 1980s and 1990s with the Bird/Magic NBA rivalry, Bernard Goetz “The Subway Vigilante”, Yusef Hawkins, Central Park Five case, Charles Stuart in Boston, Rodney King and LA riots, O.J Simpson trial. So don’t let the media fool you guys, racial tension and political upheaval is nothing new in America. But going back the 10s are more similar to the 80s in my opinion.
The '10s are the new '60s.
1960s = Interracial Marriage legalized
2010s = Homosexual Marriage legalized
1960s = Unpopular War in Indochina
2010s = Unpopular War in the Middle East
1960s = Many Race Riots
2010s = Many Race Riots
1960s = Pot smoking hippies
2010s = Pot smoking hipsters
1960s = 1968 Nixon Election
2010s = 2016 Trump Election
1960s = Cold War with Soviet Union
2010s = Cold War with Russian Federation
Even in the music industry, I can see some parallels. Music from both decades seems to have a more conscious and less edgy sound than music from the '70s, '80s, '90s, and '00s does.
Best examples of this would be the parallels between bands/artists like the Beatles and Bob Dylan to bands/artists like Twenty-One Pilots and Ed Sheeran.
What do you all think of this?
