Trends recycle every 30 years. The 80s were like the 50s. The 90s were like the 60s. Now we're seeing a bastardized version of the 90s. It's all the slight wokeness of the 90s on steroids.
Consider:
Cultural wars against common decency: F-word prevalence in public pushed as “Free Speech”. Degrades culture and starts chipping at the social standards of public decency
Grooming: Cosmo pushes anal sex to virginal teen girls as a legitimate means to sexually satisfy the boy while staying a virgin. Weakens heterosexual revulsion to sodomy and makes it a non-issue in accepting homosexuality
Modesty and social cohesion: selfishness and self image/identity promoted at the cost of healthy, social norms (compare to trans-mania of attacking social norms in favor of identity regardless of why social norms exist)
