If they were having a rough go of things in the 90s. Then the 90s weren't the shining beacon of success it's claimed to be. That point is very much valid.

Then there as never been in the history of this earth a shining beacon of success because at every waking moment there wasn't an optimal number of people immune to all disease, death, and suffering, to no downside to nature around them?

Fuck off, idiot, the 90s is where the curve peaked for a lot of people. China had finished bringing 70% of their population out of extreme poverty since the world war era, the USA markets and deficit were stable though heading in a bad direction due to Reagan, and Europe was having a big cultural and tourism boom.

It's a shit point that argues against 100% valid and factual statements.

Tell that to the billions of people who've been living in poverty for decades under the U.S . Imperialist boot.
