In many ways the US is the frog in the pot of water on the stove
I remember that world and miss it. Young people today don’t believe America was like that ever. We had something wonderful and let it slip away. I want America to not only be great again, but to be good again!
Where have you gone, Norman Rockwell?
Lost is the sense of civic engagement and moral responsibility to the thing that makes life without brutality possible- Western civilization.
Gone forever.
I am vilified for saying this but I think the “Greatest Generation” which lived through the great depression and WW11 are mainly at fault for the problems we face today. They got so wrapped up in providing for their families and doing what was right that they allowed the camel to stick his nose in the tent and open the door. They cared more about family than politics which in the long run has not worked to the benefit of our country.
Alll was good as long as I was home when the street lights came on.
OMG. . .this hate speech has triggered me! HELP ME. . .I’m being overwhelmed by this tsunami of white privilege. . .where did I leave my pearls?. . I must clutch them. . .I’m off to my safe space and will be in the fetal position cryin for my mammy until further notice!!!
The America that was the envy of the world.
And no shaving.
Bttt
Feminism destroyed the two parent family more than anything
Obsession with racism is another culprit
Oddly I blame the ethno policies of the Third Reich and others earlier
They made it nigh impossible for white Christian culture in the West to fight against those who wish to diminish or destroy them....that’s a rich irony btw
You’re white and Christian and you fight back you’re a potential Nazi...face it....listen to kids talk today
Everything is about race or oppressed women
Feminism begat homosexuality getting loud
All this will be settled violently either from within or external and even if we prevail it’ll never be Leave To Beaver again except maybe in select homes
In before the virtue signalling “We are a nation of immigrants” open border cabal.
STOP.ALL.IMMIGRATION.INDEFINITELY.NOW!
My kids were looking at middle and high-school photos of their grandfather. He, and all his friends were wearing a coat and tie. They asked him: “why were you all dressed-up?”
He told them how a coat and tie were a daily requirement at his public school. If you didn’t have one, the principal and teachers (who greeted all students at the door) sent you home. Nobody complained though. All the parents agreed with the school. It was not a wealthy area either. It was the Depression, and It was a blue-collar neighborhood, very much “working class.”
He explained how there were no drugs, no sex or relationships, no drama, no gangs, no fights, no bullying.
My kids said: “I think we would have liked your school”
IMHO the 19th amendment was the turning point ... emotional creatures given the power to vote on how to run the show ...
Men were men, women were women and even children could explain that to their parents.
Schools were free of substance abuse problems, sexual promiscuity, and identity problems.
Liberals destroy list the no rules game is their life until it kills them.
Before 1950-all true but the heavy left assault on the American educational system was well underway since the early 1900s - John Dewey, consolidated school districts, passive PTAs, school boards packed with lefties, gradual elimination of religion, etc., etc.
I don’t recall if the adults in my youth were looking back on the 1920’s the way folk around her pine for the 1950’s.
Looking back can be fun, but it can make you depressed.
