    It was very much something my generation feared. It permeated pop culture in the 70’s and 80’s

      70s and 80s yes. Not so much the 90s. Those were the salad years. Glasnost, the end of the cold war, the Internet… Everything was looking so positive. Hell, even the music was happier (although that might be selection bias).

      The 70s and 80s were terrifying by comparison.
