I would have loved for us to live in a boring time where nobody would remember us outside a specific niche of archaeologists
if we were living in boring time social rule would be so strict that nobody deviated from it, and while things would be nice, it would also simultaneously suck because that’s something that you simply have to live with without having anything to do about it.
1950s america is romanticized, but men were over worked and often excluded from doing more interesting things throughout daily life, where as women were stuck in the homes dealing with homework unable to own their own bank accounts independently from a man. Minorities were one of the things of all time.
While the economy might suck, and the global climate might suck (remember, the 1950s was literally leading up to the cold war) it’s really not that bad, considering how much freedom we do have actively accessible to us. You for example, can sit here and shitpost about it, and i for example can make this post.
The 50’s were probably great for kids born into middle class American households. But the adults of the 50’s had just endured the worst war the world had ever seen, so I’m sure there were a lot of unresolved emotional issues for men and women alike, that were buried under alcohol and clouds of tobacco.

And they used those unresolved emotional issues to abuse their children physically and psychologically. Which is why the boomers are the way they are.
yeah, and likewise, the social cohesion and strictness that i mentioned.
