I prefer the 90s to the current horrors, but I don’t exactly miss

• the Yugoslav wars
• the Rwandan genocide
• the assassination of Yitzak Rabin bringing an end to the Oslo peace process
• the rise of the taliban
• the Chechen wars
• the Congo wars
• the ideology of “the end of history”
• the wave of rightwing violence in Germany (e.g. in Rostock, where thousands of people were celebrating as Nazis attacked and set aflame a house with more than a hundred people in it, most of them migrant workers)
