Did civilization peak in the 1950s?






Nothing will ever top life in the 50s. Anything else is cope.

Why do liberals hate this?

It wasn't all white picket fences and happy nuclear families, although of course there's nothing wrong with that. There was the existential threat of nuclear annihilation for example, back when the Soviet armed forces were a peer to the US. Life sucked for many non-whites and gays. Men could pretty much knock their wives around and rape them with zero consequences.

I'm not talking about the bad. There's always going to be bad.

I'm talking about the good. In what other era/civilization was life better than it was in the 1950s for white americans?

I don't think things were better than, nor were they near as great as pictured. There was a lot of propaganda back then mainly designed to shove it in the faces of commies.

Okay, but here it is 2020 and blacks are still claiming they are so oppressed. I'm starting to have doubts that they were ever actually oppressed in the past century. First of all, the discrimination wasn't everywhere. Most people on a personal level weren't really racist. In fact, statitically speaking, black family structure was better then.

Yeah. Shame the non-whites couldn't build a nice society themselves so they pollute white societies instead.

I was born 1959 so I don't know anything before that. However the time between now and then is great for me and my family.

I'd rather be alive today with all of the problems we have instead of the 50s, I'm not liberal.

Cars last 200k miles or longer without major repair.
Internet and the ability to ship products anywhere mean you can live almost anywhere
A/C in almost every building
Medicine is much more advanced, even though it's more expensive-this is the most important IMO barring a serious accident or cancer a healthy adult has the potential to live to 90 or 100 y/o

Early to late 90s were amazing. The birth of mainstream internet before social media was beautiful.
Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesn’t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesn’t mean anything either.
