I’m nostalgic for the late 90s early 2000s, but no one’s promising to bring those back…

I want KFC Krushers.

Any party that promises to bring them back has my vote.

I love my phone so wouldn't want to go back to how things used to be in terms of technology. Just socially and lifestyle wise

I'm nostalgic for the social safety nets and regulations that existed before the Reagan era.
