They'll never get it. I swear the misc has become a cesspool of hipsters, and hipsters is the appropriate term because the delusional confidence on their end blows my mind. Even stating that was a common practice will have people telling you, well just stay in your part of town.

lol I'm now convinced certain sects of people are attacking the use of the word racism to deflect from their actual backwards thoughts. Still ignorant as ****

not just the MISC, the whole world is regressing in that aspect, with the rise of the alt-right, racist views becoming more accepted, hitler worship, etc. The pendulum is swinging back towards the 1950s if anything.

One of my hobbies is WWII history, and you can literally see the discussions morph across the years, from early 2000s, where they talk about the technical aspect of the Wehrmacht, vehicles, general's mistakes, and how hitler basically fukked up the entire war by not trusting his generals, all the way to today, where they worship hitler as their god-saviour, alongside the very people he mistrusted and hated. Look at the neo-nazi morons worshipping rudolf hess just a few days ago, hitler hated his ass to the core, and they worship him blindly. No knowledge or respect for history at all.

All this is driven by SJW wanting more powers for themselves. Unemployed art degree kids who feel like chit want more degenerates in the country, so they advocate for dangerous male refugees from dangerous countries. Fat ugly white women wanting more attention, so they try to make fat a beauty standard. Attention whores wanting more attention, so they say controversial chit. Incels who can't get women, so they say they're gender fluid. This is not even a white VS minorities battle, its a white VS white battle, and minorities are the rag doll between them. Make sure you have an exit plan if you're currently a minority in a western country.

I'd consider it if I could live in the USA. Aus was fine back then, but the world was a much bigger place. BRB it takes two-three weeks on a boat to get to the UK, and then another week to get to the USA.

The Pacific theatre was on our door step, and we faced a very real existential threat from the Japanese.

I understand why black folks wouldn't want to go back, but question: would living in a black community in the 1950s be worse than living in a high crime area like the worst parts of Chicago today? There's a lot of black peoples that live in safe areas, but it's really a question about which bad situation is less horrific.

You are comparing living in a whole country vs living in one section of one city. It isnt about living in a black community then vs now. It is eras. 50s vs today. And today is EASILY better, in every way. Even taking race out.

All of you bitching and moaning about the 1950s can look to the modern extreme left, SJW, political correctness, 1000000000 genders, LGBTQASDFJKL; culture being directly injected into modern mainstream culture and forced on people and place the blame squarely there. The 1950s is a far cry from the modern dark ages we live in now and that's why people would happily choose to go back to living then over contemporary times. Nobody in here wants to go to the 50s to celebrate racism, you morons. "Duhhh of course the whities would choose the 1950s, duhhhhhhhhhhh THEY'LL NEVER GET IT, duhhh white people r racist and love hitler." I would choose living in the 1950s over the present to escape the psychological poison of today, not because I'm racist. Kiss my ass.

Having said that, I'll reiterate my preference: late 70s, early 80s for me.
