Actually, my teenage years (1980s) were that commies are bad. Everybody hated communists and I don't think I heard the term Nazi even once outside of Grade 10 history class.
The 1980s obsession with Russia and commies set back North America in terms of worker rights and social programs for at least half a century, if not longer.

Wolfenstein II The New Collosus: what is this woke anti American shit/why can't we play as the real "good" guys
Gee. Somewhere between the release of these two games public opinion changed. The first came out in 2014, btw. The second's ad campaign had "Make America Nazi Free Again" as a slogan, something that id thought we'd all agree. Nazis were in that safe group of "enemies we can slaughter without guilt" alongside aliens, zombies and robots.
49I would love old school arcades. I feel like, most people today just don't know what a wonderful place they used to be.
No stupid toys to win. No tickets. No tokens or any virtual currency.
Most games were a quarter with some of the larger ones being two quarters. You just hung out, played games, met new people, got to experience a wide range of games from shooters, side scroller fighters, sports, etc.
It was truly magical. Was one of the best things at the mall.
40This entire "ANTI-WOKE" is just some bullshit that the most ignorant bigots hide behind thinking they can be as fucking awful as they want to be.
They've even brought back anti-gay with the anti-trans thing under the old "THINK OF THE CHILDREN" banner which is pure bullshit.
It really seemed for a good 10-15 years that that shit was conquered.
These morons hide their racism by scoffing at anything with a non-white person in it with the label "POC".
The funniest thing is, they think their fucking clever and they use 1950's housefrau shit like "DENGENERATE" and other outmoded bullshit words.
They make fun of the left for being triggered by their own shadows(which does happen) but these morons are scared of anything not white and not straight, it's really awful but kind of funny in a sick way.
30Don't know about USA, but in Germany the inflationary use of "Nazi" by leftists weakened the term a lot. So if someone is called a Nazi, you don't have to assume anymore it's a bad person. I believe it will be impossible to turn that back.

13An overall disdain for anything too trendy or popular.
My teenage family members live and die by the trend cycle. Teenagers have always cared about what's cool, but now the trend cycle is so fast it's impossible to keep up without spending inordinate amounts of money and generating tons of waste. It also just doesn't seem great for their self-esteem.
I was a teen in the mid-2000s/early 2010s hipster Tumblr era, which of course came with its own issues. But at least the trend cycle took a few years, and if anything I liked was unpopular I could just roll my eyes and say it's just too obscure for you normies to understand.

The right is calling the left nazis.
The nazis first endorsed Trump when it was against Hillary, then Biden against Trump.
These are confusing times,but rest assured that the prevailing belief is that nazis are bad.
