lmao fucking 2009 is now the mythical conservative golden age? I wonder what conservatives in 2009 had to say about the year 2009. I’m sure they weren’t saying anything about ‘Murican society being the deepest in the shitter it’s ever been because of gay people and Mexicans and satanic Obama socialism or anything.

Is this dipshit 12 fucking years old or is chud memory worse than an Alzheimer’s ridden Boe Jiden? A 2009 chud would have used the left image as an example of how the gay satanist cabal had destroyed america

Explaining the passage of time to an Amerikkkan: "now, imagine a burger..."

Lmao they desaturated the one on the right to make it look less colourful.

Anyway, just another example of the right being partially correct in realising things are getting worse, but being totally wrong as to the reason why.

What they're seeing capitalist cost cutting and the natural enshittification of capitalist properties as shareholders cut costs and take more control away from the people actually building their shit. The people now making decisions have no idea what works outside of how to make more money for doing less effort.

What they think they're seeing is those scary wokes demanding everything be more generic for... reasons? Maybe they think wokes think colour is racist or some dumb shit?

Say it isn't so! Social conservatism always results in a hollowed out, soulless culture in which the fun, unique, and superfluous aspects of existence are steamrolled in favor of bland conformism? And it always applies to everything?

Wow, crazy how when you cut corners, corners get cut. What do you mean, you don't like it when everything is a circle? You specifically asked for all of the corners to be cut off of everything!

Two factors here, one business-specific: One, more generic architecture is cheaper and easier to resell. Two, McDonalds has been running from people's "kiddy" perception of the brand since the '90s (to limited success).

Okay, this is how we make America great again: imagine a burger...

Literally just "I miss my childhood"

Right: Chaotic, tacky, featuring animals being pushed to the brink of extinction by the sort of automatic consumerism the brand was built on enabling.

Left: Bland, corporate, soulless, and generic, reflecting the flattening of culture that the relentless global spread of a mass-produced commodity food designed to taste the same everywhere has achieved.

Is this an actual negative trend or has American culture just somehow mastered the art of rotting sideways. No actual decomposition into something fertile in which something new can take route, just an endless cycling through the different manifestations of the same monster?

'imagine mcdonalds is everything in existence'

burgerbrains are a parody of themselves. They don't need to 'imagine' it, it's their core worldview

2009, great time for America.

zoomers remember 2009, a decent chunk of them do at least.

I honestly wish nothing but the worst kind of death for everyone on that site

i do wonder if the powers that be all got together and decided we cant have fun looking shit anymore because it’s going to clash with the fascist reality they’re currently imposing on us

(i don’t actually wonder that but it’s not that crazy to think)

usian politics: so imagine a mcdonals...

That’s not 20 years, it’s only 16 years. Just wait…

Checkmate chudasses.

2009 America was woke, checkmate liberals.

You know all those plans Nazis and Italian Fascists had for mega architecture? Modern day fascists have that but for turning McDonald's back into a clown house. Like an 80-story building that takes up a whole block but it looks like a playskool hamburger
