      not exactly related to those games specifically but i'd call this the "forced horror/analog horror era" with stuff like poppy, the backrooms, and glaggleland, when retard children infested it and tried to turn it into "oooh scary analog horror OOH SCARY SCARY JUMPSCARE" and all that. i feel especially bad for the backrooms + glaggleland because those were just harmless wacky memes at first that were fun to look through, but now we got the 9 year old Kinemaster FlipAClip kids turning it into VHS horror and shit.

No, the memes came with the children, the backrooms used to be a few images of liminal spaces depicting empty, nostalgic places from the early 2000s. The backrooms was not ruined by children making it as you described. It was ruined because it became much too popular, with the introduction of “levels” and the absurd amount of enemies, along with the whole fucking thing being explained in detail, removing the mysterious vibe.

    An era I was confused you didn't cover was "The Cancellation Era" (2019-present). It explains itself, but basically people would make fake accusations about people they don't like or find "cringy".
    Examples of victims from this era were JellyBean (falsely accused of racism because PNGtuber), ChippleDipple (accused of grooming, revenge porn, and targeted harrasment because of his edgy humor), Sinder (because of her...of questionable quality CPR metal cover), Kwite (because he didn't like his ex's overly sexual behavior towards him), and Revie (falsely accused of grooming because she burnt someone's house in Minecraft).

      I think it’s because that era hasn’t ended yet. Plus cancellation isn’t really an “era”. It was just something that got super popular to do but fizzled out really quickly. The only people getting “canceled” anymore are people who are behaving intentionally provocative, and half the time they’re seeking that attention out themselves because it’s profitable (modern “comedians” using edgy humor to get people to complain about and advertise their work are good examples of this)
      There are still cases like Kwite where people are falsely accused but that’s been happening forever. It’s not exclusive to cancel culture.

I got to witness one in-person at a fair. it was actually quite sad (no one got hurt tho). me friend and I were standing in line for food for over two hours. there was this friendly black man in front of us who would occasionally talk to us during the two hours. when we got to the front, this teenager cut in front of the guy and he was like "hey, get to the back of the line." the teen started to argue with the man and then the teen's mom came over and threatened to fight the guy. this guy didn't back down. it escalated to the point of security having to break it up (thankfully they did so in a non-violent way) and the man who waited for over 2 hours was told to leave with his son (but the teen and his family stayed). no punches were thrown fortunately and the man got his food, but it just made me very sad and angry that someone who stood up to some asshole kid was asked to leave.

    There’s also the drama era where everyone was at each others throats every day.
    The extremely political era (apparently still in it and was here since before some of us were born) where every part of the political spectrum was at each others throats, acting like programmed robots, and displaying the most close minded mentality I’ve ever seen. Even accusing movies of propaganda like it’s the red scare again
    And I guess the let’s play/gaming era (wasn’t very bad except for some mini lads and lion makers). Minecraft was especially popular with whole song parodies. Now that part of the internet (mainly yt) just isn’t as popular.

    Despite making inoffensive pop music and merely doing their jobs, the internet lunged at the throats of many of these kids, spawning all kinds of homophobic slurs, death threats and hit pieces like Death Battle did for Justin Bieber and Rebecca Black, heck i remember hearing accounts of these teens getting assaulted, all because... They were cringe?

    One good thing about the Musically and Tik Tok era is introducing people to new music choices (Seeing the song ""Even Flow" resurge in popularity for example makes me happy in a way sure I wasn't an OG Pearl Jam fan I can very much admit that as I first heard them with said song in GH3 back in the Early-2010s but seeing new people liking a song that gave me nostalgia feels nice)

    I like the fact that I lived through all of these eras and sailed left on most of them. I knew that NFTs and TikTok dances were stupid from the very beginning and held that to the very end even as my peers fell for them. I'll admit I did grow up watching a lot of RUclips so I may have been somewhat influenced by these same communities but the videos that I remember watching were out of line from the synchronous insanity in this video and definitely more kid friendly which means I was on the good side of the internet. I do feel less traumatized and more level headed/satisfied with my experiences here.

    During 1978, the man named William roe has been accused of four counts of homicidal acts against a family of four, the first victim was 12 years old, his bones were dislocated and cracked, next was the mother, which had her hanged by her own intestines, the next was 24, he was drugged so he could not control him self, so while being controlled he was screaming for help, the officers didn't know he was drugged so he was killed. It was the next victim that was the most gruesome.... he got a metal bat to his face, fell down a 31 stairs, snapping his neck, then he got a cleaver in his chest. That was the disturbing crime of 1978.

Like yeah sometimes people needed to be taken down a peg or two, I don't feel bad for Shane Dawson, but now cancel culture is just a giant drama club where 14 year old white girls wanna come and try to dunk on a kid for not agreeing with them, or because they accidentally used the wrong pronouns, even though they do some of the most out of pocket stuff and make up stuff about others just for clout, one of the worst eras ever.

Though i think for me now nearly being an adult, i think it was for the better that i lost that channel early, because god knows how bad it could have gotten if the channel got any more than 50K subs.
