The 2010s
The second decade of the 21st century, lasting between 2010 and 2019.
There were certainly a lot of problems with this era (specifically its latter half), particularly regarding political divisiveness and the oversaturation of "pop politics" in general. However, while these issues could rarely be totally avoided, at the end of the day they were easy to distract yourself from if you prioritized living your life.
By contrast, the 2020s thus far have been characterized by a global pandemic and its effects on our lives. Unlike the issues found in the 2010s, these ones are nearly impossible to avoid due to the fact that most of the resources we utilized in the 2010s to live our lives either ended temporarily or permanently, or became associated with danger and recklessness.
While the 2010s were a highly imperfect decade, they were very liveable and generally had more positives than negatives, especially compared with the 2020s so far. As such, the 2010s will for a long time be seen as the last decade of comfort and normalcy.

Back in the 2010s I could go to restaurants, events, etc. to make myself feel better if life got too overwhelming. In 2020 most of these resources didn't exist, and even now they are less accessible and less associated with relaxation than they were in the 2010s.

The 2011 Trump Trump
When you find out your women is leaving you for someone else so, you ball gag and blind fold her in the nastiest hotel you can find. Then invite your old fraternity buddies to run a train on her till she bleeds red white and blue. Then trash the whole hotel room so it looks like it was broken into but record the whole thing for social media purposes..
