Imagine the things that could happen when someone with modern knowledge ends up in 06. How would people react to my accounts of the 2020s???

Nobody would believe half of it or listen. Hell people don't believe or listen when I talk about stuff that objectively happened when it's in the past, if I tried to tell people in 2006 about say COVID, I might as well be walking around with a sign saying, "The End Is Nigh!"

2006 isn't even that far out from SARS-CoV-1 so pretty sure people could wrap their heads around it.

What my past much libber self would struggle with is to understand just how willingly complicit every part of the social structure would be in enabling the spread in order to prop up the economy and just how fast consent would be manufactured, how fast we went from a strong sense of communal resistance to apathy. Maybe that is what you meant but then again try telling the average person today that covid isn't over and you might as well walk around with a sign saying, "The End Is Nigh!"
