I am interested to know what life was like from the words of people who were still children then or they were from 16-30 years old.

    The people who argue the USA was “always this bigoted” skip over the entire period between the Civil Rights movement and GamerGate. If your reference point for the past is like, the 90s or 00s, no it wasn’t as bigoted. Not to say there was no bigotry, but it wasn’t acceptable to be outwardly hateful, and most people believed the future would be more progressive.
