>How do I cope with knowing that things are not shaping up to get better, despite my generation supposedly being the "strong men creating good times"?
Who in the world told you this? I think zoomers get way too much shit, as do millennials (1991 here), but zoomers are by no means the strong men who are creating good times. Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, Gen Z, likely Gen Alpha, all of us are the weak men creating hard times.

>You're probably right. But it is also true that there was a communal nature to the media consumption of the time that is not present today.
This is true though. Back then, everyone knew who Jennifer Aniston was, whether they watched Friends or not. There was a shared mono-culture which connected people to one another. It may have been a shallow connection, but it was a connection nonetheless. With every passing day, it seems people in general are just getting more and more divided, and personally, I think this is by design.
Also, gaming peaked between the early 90s and mid 00s. People who say that 2007 was the best year in gaming are objectively wrong. Maybe the last good year, but certainly not the best year.
