Lately my Mom and I have been watching old Elvis movies on Friday nights. The movies themselves were so-so, but they did show an America that was a 100x nicer place to live - from coast to coast.
I watched a youtube video of Lynyrd Skynyrd performing in 1978 in Oakland California. Free Bird. Lots of young people but what I noticed was no tats or piercings.
I am 60 and yes the culture has changed a lot for the worse.
Some things I don’t understand and really don’t want to know.
