The world has always been shit, some of you just took longer to realise
In a sense alot of aspects of the world have always been shit, but there are alot of elements that have got worse.

You have to live through it and experience the decline to appreciate what has been lost.

For starters, money ruins alot of things from the top down. Music, fashion, sport, other aspects. The resulting human user experience of these things today compared to 30-40 years ago is entirely different. Its controlled. Its sanitised. Its largely homogenous. It's cookie cutter. It's lost its integrity. It's purpose is to make money rather than be its own thing which might happen to make money as a result of it being awesome, edgy or outside the square.

Compare the lack of change and diversity in music and fashion between 2005 to 2025, to between say 1972 and 1992. And growing a beard or a mo for a couple of years doesn't count for as much as you think

As for footy, the game day experience and focus used to be 99% about the players and the team. It was skillfull, it was brutal, it was amazing and organic!

Now it's about the executives (paid more than players), flashing advertising signs, loud adverts, commentators shouting for your attention, the umpires, rule changes ...oh and there happens to be a game of footy on as a side show if you can navigate through everything else, which has been compromised to the last dollar as much as the audience can tolerate without turning off.
