Idk, the internet, smoking rates, queer issues, maga, americans identifying as socialists, mass surveillance, etc.
Marty would be showing up in the 90s with a mustache and crop top, confused as to why everything is smoky as hell and why so many people are calling him homophobic slurs, as he has to figure out how to get onto and use the internet. Also a lot of his slang will be incomprehensible to the people of the 90s
Edit: I forgot the biggest thing! Cell phones weren’t common yet. Getting ahold of someone while they weren’t home or at their desk was unlikely to succeed.
I feel like it’d be better to say that the broad cultural attitude and even aesthetics havent changed too much since the 90s. You could throw me in my normal clothes (Read weeb shirt and surplus camo jacket) and there’s a pretty good chance folks would just assume I’m punk or grunge. While culture has shifted the broad attitudes have really only gotten bleaker if more socially progressive, but here’s the thing the culture that existed when my grandmother was 20 and what existed when my mother was 20 is for more different than my mother and I at 20. Throw me back to 1999 and I would only look different in that I’m a paranoid asshole trying to murder his own father.
Note I’m 26, just using 20 as a baseline since it’s pre 9-11 for my mom and 1976 for my grandmother.
