When was the market ever normal?

I've been into stocks since early 2020, and ever since then, there's been several bull runs, a couple big crashes (Covid and the April tariffs), which of course were recovered quickly.

It has seemed that this entire time there are people acting like things are crazy - there's always a dozen reasons things should be collapsing, and yet for the most part the market has charged ahead full of steam.

I'm wondering if there was actually a normal that existed, or if this is how it always has been. Perhaps social media and politics have gotten to people lately?
