Why is it that that leftists of today look like the "right-wingers" of 40-60 years ago?
Women: Blue hair. Possibly pearls to clutch. Old church-going prudes used to have "blue" hair. (And religious laws were known as "blue" laws. It's where the term "bluenoser" came from, it's someone who doesn't drink, smoke, or do sexy stuff like dance or play cards, and they definitely don't shop on Sundays.)
Men: Bald heads or buzzcuts, what we used to know as the "Nazi skinhead" look, popular with soldiers and police everywhere. Boomers and Gen Xers with shoulder-length hair are wondering what the hell happened, and why do my grandkids look like my grandfather now?
Both sexes: Nerd glasses.
Why?
'50s glasses.
Both hipster wokes and tradcons have a unexplained fetish for the American 1950s.
Vaush listens to electro-swing, the modern soy version of swing.
At least Razorfist has a hard-on for boomer metal. His heart is in the right place.
Culture
Counter-culture
Culture
Each generation rebels from their parents and popular culture, and, in that rebellion, they swing back around to what their grandparents did to their parents' culture.
Traditional societies may have rebellious youth and cultural shifts, but it manifests in superficial or incremental changes, while most children follow in their parents footsteps. New ideas gradually enter society and are assimilated into existing culture, not really taking root until the old generation passes away.
The kind of cultural revolutions we have in the west are a symptom of an unhealthy post-modernist society.
Because their sense of "progress" is anything that goes against natural hierarchy.
