For me, it was 1) the fall of the Berlin Wall, 2) 9/11, 3) Lehman Brothers going under, and 4) the birth and death of my firstborn

Did the fall of the Berlin Wall have an immediate effect on your life?

And I am very sorry to hear about the loss of your child.

For the part of my family still in Eastern Europe, most certainly, and it left an enormous impression on me

Reminds me that thanks to Twitter I knew we were cooked 2 weeks before lockdown started.

So I will thank Left Twitter for psychologically preparing me for what was coming before the general population & giving me more time to prepare.
