Of the three you mentioned, 2020 was when we really lost America, when corporations flipped from lukewarm liberal to an aggressive culturally-leftist stance, and from promoting equality to promoting "equity", a.k.a. blatant White subjugation and non-white revanchism.

Everything up until 2020 was still framed in terms of White and black Americans striving towards a "more perfect union", that the American project was a good and noble ideal with a flawed start that it was working to correct. Then the NYT "1619 Project" came out in August of 2019 and became the backbone for the mainstream position that America was always evil, that America was built to preserve slavery instead of to secure liberty, that it is built on stolen land, that the Constitution itself represents White supremacy and must be destroyed so blacks can finally take back their stolen wealth from Whites.

That, plus the George Floyd riots demolished the historic American nation.

2016 was the kindling, but 2020 lit the match.

Yeah, the cultural change from 2020 was massive and is still felt (that said it was still gradually being built up too and fueled in the 2010s). Not to mention as well the mass censorship on social media including the original DAR subreddit that had a strong presence for a quarantined sub. Thank's to America's influence on the White world the cancer spread to other nations, the UK being the worst honestly.

How about April 6, 1954? That's when Judi Bowker, the british actress you impersonate on Reddit was born.
