Started reading 1984 and I feel like I've been gaslighted my entire life. What is something you remember reading on the internet 15-20 years ago but can't find or find little trace of today? (whatever)

I remember study after study showing homosexuals were usually victims of molestation or severe drug use, can't find much now outside of 'they were born that way' now

I also use to remember being able to find accurate crime statistics for black communities. So obvious it was in the music they produced. Hard to find statistics that don't get blamed on racism or another thing.

"Heat Islands" and "Carbon Footprints" as applied to largely suburban middle class white people's lives for the latter and urban centers for the former. I don't think these shaming and scare tactics work so well when the globalist governments are suddenly so keen on artificially boosting populations. Increasing carbon use and expanding urban centers.

I was reminded about the "Heat Island" thing when someone posted a pic of a weird grey square with intricate textures on it, then revealed it was a satellite photo, maybe from google maps, of Delhi or somewhere similar. Some 3rd world hell-hole where they clearly didn't get the same tree-hugging finger-wagging messaging first world middle class whites were getting.

Now all I see is an attempt to duplicate that satellite photo's view in first world countries. No mention of carbon footprints either. So likely that was another piece of anti-middle class propaganda that didn't bare close examination either. I'm guessing the numbers had been fudged in some spectacularly underhanded fashion to dump the majority of the "shame footprint" on working, tax paying suburbanites.
