Yeah sorry, it may be better in some ways but a large amount of powerful people want us back in serfdom/slavery, instead of actually improving life. 90s was peak, it's downhill from there.
I know quite a few minorities that would disagree with you. Also I think a lot of people in poverty probably have a better now with the institutions and systems we have then they were in the 90s when after they had been gutted by the Reagan Administration and not restored by the Bush Administration or the Clinton administration.
Agreed, it definitely wasn't better for minorities or women really (except wealthy ones of course) but Im saying they had the chance to keep improving, and chose to form regressive policy and now here we are.
Oh that's just capitalism doing what capitalism does. Mainly the pursuit of profit over all else
