I hate the 80s
Appropriate thread
80s "fashion". I don't know what happened that decade, what you all were snorting. The big hair, the glittery colours, the shoulder-pads, the mullets, ugh vile.
By far the very worst decade in history for "fashion". I can't even write "fashion" in the same sentence as "The 80s" without quotation marks because of how bad it was.
My Mom, who was late teens/early 20s in the 80s, naturally loves it. I see old photos of her when she had her perm and I cringe.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
