Old and tired argument. Please. When did you watch F1, in 1970s or 60s before quitting?

Nowadays, people complain about the dominance of Mercedes team and their lead driver Hamilton, somehow forgetting that right before the Mercedes dominance, Vettel won four freaking consecutive championship titles for RedBull. In 2013 everybody was getting sick of Vettel. Of course, during the RedBull-Vettel dominance, people ALSO complained that F1 is not the way it used to be before, somehow forgetting that Ferrari won six unprecedented consecutive championships between 1999 and 2004, and that their lead driver won the unprecedented five consecutive driver titles in 2000-2004. When Schumacher was winning, people complained that the racing is not the same as in 1990s, but wait most of 90s was dominated by the Williams team (who did change its drivers between seasons like we change underwear). People sick of Williams dominance proudly recalled the 1980s, when the "real" racing happened, but somehow forgetting how McLaren won most of championships in the 80s.
