m not sure what you're basing that claim on, but the permanent growth of federal spending began during FDR's administration.
He’s probably basing it on Lincoln’s overreach

Won't include Revolutionary War because America didn't exist at the time in reality

how can you put BLM, 9/11 for muslims, and Covid in the same breath as the others?
9/11 for the people that died, sure, but muslim americans? get that shite out of here.

Being beaten, raped, killed, or taken from your family at the whim of another person was probably pretty bad.
Hiving your children forcibly removed from you was probably pretty bad.
Having your spouse beaten, raped, killed, or taken from you was probably pretty bad.
Having to perform hard labor from dawn until dusk as mandated by another person and without compensation was probably pretty bad.

The woke years.
The American Police Officer was demonized and left to defend for his own as a result of the sins of long past transgressions and modern day false narratives.
We learned the time old tale: This too shall pass.

Many of the posters here unironically believe that a black man being president was worse for them.

Someone could have been born around 1853-55 and been about 10 years old as the Civil War wrapped up.
They’d have been around 55 during WWI.
They’d be 65-70 in the roaring 20s. Flappers, oh my!
They’d have been 74 as the Great Depression started and 87 during the attack on Pearl Harbor.
I’ve always thought that would have been quite a time period to be born in.

Revolutionary war time frame.
Pretty much, if you weren’t fighting against the British, you had to fake like you wanted them around and hope they didn’t arrest you and kill you.
And if you did fight against them, the only outcome was the survive the battle or die.
Fairly rough life

Obviously the Civil War, closely followed by Reconstruction.

Why were there Japanese camps but not German camps? I'm for equal opportunity oppression here.

Great Depression
Without a doubt.
I was lucky - I was born in '38, the year that the economic outlook began to improve. By comparison to the depths of the depression, I had it easy - and I never felt like anyone 'owed' me a damned thing.
But the misery of the prior ten years was beyond description - tens of thousands of people losing their homes - hoboes a common sight - food rationing - my dad working for 75c a day and my mother doing chores for a living.
HOWEVER - in that era everyone was nice to one another - nobody (very few) starved because friend/family and neighbors would volunteer to share their own meager largess with them.
The other events listed were bad, but the worst was felt primarily by the active participants. Possible exception being the Civil War.
