I bet that people were a lot happier then they are now.
No need to bet on anything, we KNOW people were happier. In fact, women in particular have gotten less and less happy as “women’s rights” have advanced:
And it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to look at the average depressed and nihilistic Zoomer teen and compare them to a teen from the ’50s to see who was living the more enjoyable life.
women in particular have gotten less and less happy as “women’s rights” have advanced
Women's "anxiety" comes from the fact that they instinctually know that they are doomed without men's leadership. Of course they will never admit to this because "equal rights" and bitching are all shit tests to make sure a man is resilient and emotionally controlled. After all if a man can't put a woman in her place, how can he possibly prevail against the aggression of another man?
But strangely, working women in areas with strong traditional values – where most people had voted against equal pay – were happier than working women in liberal cantons.
Even though their salaries were further below those of the men around them, the women in more traditional communities were less likely to report discrimination than their countrywomen in more liberal areas.
No, not strange. The traditional women don't harbor bitterness towards men and the resulting victim complex, so of course they will be happier in life.
This inside-out result probably arises from different cognitive comparisons. Women in liberal communities are less happy and notice discrimination because they automatically compare their opportunities and salary to everyone else around them, men included. Traditionally minded women perhaps base their identities more firmly on their gender roles, and think only of other women when they evaluate their privilege and opportunities.
Exactly! Traditional women feel no need to compete with men, because they know they are not men!

Hollywood psy oped that a healthy normal family must have some dark secret and abusive interaction. The concept of a healthy family unit isn't something leftists believe is possible.
Humans are all flawed beings, doesn't mean we all have some freak dark desire or treacherous nature. The perfect family doesn't exist, families that exists harmoniously with each other's flaws do. The result often times resembles whats seen in that 1950s Americana Barbeque scene.
The Nihilism, atomization, pathological behavior, and degeneracy of Bojack Horseman and Rick & Morty aren't psyops. That's literally how everyone in Hollywood lives.
The greatest fortress of human liberty, proof against all Earthly powers, is the family. In its small, private space it can withstand the will of authority and the might of wealth. It is without doubt the single.most effective means of passing lore, culture, manners and traditions down through the generations. Its loyalties are stronger than those of the state, more powerful even than patriotism. All serious tyrannies have sought to undermine or.infiltrate it, socialist tyrannies most of all.
Gays had their own special places and straight people avoided them like the plague, keeping their damn kids out of our adult activities. Simpler times, my friends.
Seriously how hard is that. Be as degenerate as you want in your own places, pretend to be normal enough in public that normal people can go about their lives without thinking about it.
It's almost as if degenerates can't help themselves. Almost as if degeneracy is a mental and spiritual disorder that shouldn't be tolerated at all, even in "it's own place."
Almost as if degeneracy is a mental and spiritual disorder that shouldn't be tolerated at all, even in "it's own place."
IMO it is a part of human nature that needs to be managed. We would also be better off if the people with the bottom 10% iq didn't exist but that would just create another bottom 10% to deal with.
And while I agree it is a mental illness there is a difference between a person who is sane enough to reasonably mask his deficiencies while in public and those who can't.
70 years ago we had all sorts of social sanctions against degeneracy. Including PSAs warning kids about the dangers of homosexuals. They couldn't serve in the military, they wouldn't be hired for any public-facing job or working with kids. And mainly property and business owners could choose not to associate with known or even suspected degenerates without any legal sanction.
That seems like a reasonable balance. No need to "root them out" if they don't make themselves impossible to ignore.
I agree with you, but a society that thinks fags can "have their own place" or "what adults do in private is their own business" is not a society that will shame an open fag into losing his social standing and economic prospects.
It can be an unspoken agreement that as long as the governor has a beard, no one says anything. But the spoken rhetoric has to be one of zero tolerance. Anything less is a concession.
Not even that. Gays weren't concentrated enough to have special places. There were just a handful of gay people in a region and they basically knew each other. Everyone knew they were gay, and most of the time, nobody would bother one another.
I wouldn't call those ghettos, and most of those concentrations were still taking place only during and after the "Sexual Revolution".
The picture is still specifically talking about the 50's, which is prior. Sodomy is still illegal in most states, so you really can't do anything openly. Most gays in the country are going to live as no more than a handful of people in a region.
LOL. The gay ghettos were not ghettos per-se, they were concentration points where gays moved because they were cheap, no one asked questions, and cops rarely came there. It changed from time to time due to economics, but gay people have always had a so-called gay ghetto in major US cities. It was the closeted ones who tried to blend in by getting married or teenagers/college kids just starting out in life who got caught up in all the sodomy charges, because they were the ones trying to be discreet in all the wrong ways and places. Gay persecution is a sad history, but hardly unique. This all started long before the 1950s but the golden age of the ghettos began in the 50s as many people fled the inner cities to the suburbs. A lot of places suddenly stopped caring about who you fucked as long as you paid the rent.
They were brainwashed into hating the previous generation. It is directly from the maoist instruction manual.
also:
My mother’s cousins were beaten with thorn bush twigs until they bled from the scratches and welts when their pastor father found them wearing shorts in public. The aim was to make their legs unappealing, so they would be too ashamed to wear the shorts. It was the 1950’s.
It's not even the worst of the past. It's straight up imaginary.
The polio case rate, at its peak, was 36 per 100,000, or .036%. The definition of a "rare disease" is one that affects less than 5% of the population. That would make polio about 140 times more rare than a rare disease. The perception that it was ever even approaching common is pure fiction.
The gay dad is such obvious wish fulfillment I don't even need to address it.
The mom being on drugs is projection from modern day. Currently, over 35 million Americans take psych meds, and a further 50 million have used illegal drugs or abused prescription drugs. It's impossible to get data from the 1950s, but even in the 60s, an era considered by idealists as an orgy of sex and drugs, only 4% of adults - 5 million or so - had ever even smoked weed a single time. Getting high to get through the day has only been normal for a few decades.
The daughter being unable to go to college is another modern lie to make the past seem evil. In 1950, 32% of college students were female. By 1960, there were 230 women-only colleges. Being not allowed to wear blue jeans, even if it were true, is such a first world problem it's insulting they even thought of it.
Regarding child abuse and molestation, it's virtually impossible to say one way or another. The statistics only go so far back, and as we've seen from the latest rash of public school teachers being discovered as pedophiles, the powers that be still don't want us knowing the truth. So this is the only one that may contain even the slightest hint of truth, but it's a complete shot in the dark so they may as well say he's a praying mantis. It's based just as much in fact.
Nothing has changed other than a cure for polio and the fact people are open about such things, less inclined to keep them secret. They might have mentioned segregation.
I would much rather live in "repressed" 1950's America than now, when social media encourages so many people to spew their personal problems into the ether waiting for similarly afflicted ciphers to offer some ersatz sympathy or understanding. An era when prostitution was a furtive thing done in real time, when pornography was underground, when there was shame for sexual deviance, when most people had a sense of decorum I find more attractive than where we are now in the decadence.
I'm old enough to remember the early 1960s when I could as a 5-year-old roam the streets of my Southside Chicago neighborhood with no fear of assault armed only with a healthy respect for adults and a wary eye for the few creeps and criminals that were around, a sort of nonaggresive cynicism and self assurance that came from hanging out with my older brother and getting advice from him, his friends, and my older cousins.
Yeah, the world wasn't as degenerate as it is now, Leftists. You're just trash at being alive.
Boy - Doesn't have polio, is literally holding a baseball bat.
Dad - not secretly gay, that's his son.
Mother - Didn't do any drugs, drinking wine during the day was taboo.
Daughter - Literally always allowed to wear pants & go to college. Women just didn't need to wear pants, because they wanted to accentuate their femininity.
Grandpa - Beat the shit out of his son to keep him from growing up into a retard, killed the man who molested his daughter, and no one did anything about it because the cops know grandpa fought honorably at Bellau Wood, and the world is better off without the guy he killed so nobody talks about it. Shouldn't have tried to fuck the daughter of an WW1 vet.
Extras!
Gay men were """secret""", not secret. Jocko Willink calls people like that "Bob". It's the local village: idiot, degenerate, quirk, etc that everybody knows, who doesn't really do anything wrong, and the community will actively keep an eye out for in order to help. Gays wouldn't have relationships with women, they'd have relationships with each other, in quiet little communities were people basically knew they were gay. If the sexual revolution did anything for gays, it made them more degenerate and promiscuous than they had ever been before. It wasn't common for gays to have 40 man orgies in meat trucks in 1951. That was the result of Greenwich Village concentrating all gays into one spot, for the benefit of the Mafia, which is what lead to the crackdown that resulted in the Stonewall Riot.
its funny.. in video games they force female game characters to pretty much cover up. hell, seems they also force females to do boob binding, since there are very little female characters with big boobs these days.
but in real life.. those same people would be super whore. arching their backs to puff up their boobs and ass. wear all sorts of sexy stuff.
Still no answer for women's contributions to society?
They contribute more than you do. My GF brings in 50% of the income in the household. You suck at your mom's tit, while crying about how foul she is. That woman is a saint.
Dude, we all know you're a reddit mod neckbeard shut in. No one that rails on women as if they are all collectively guilty just like SJW rail on men is a productive member of society.
some faggot crying about how blacks got cheap homes back then but it was the "house next to the dump" or "house next to the steel mill"
They forget the poor whites had the same thing. I don't know about you but I don't think I would've wanted to live in Hell's Kitchen or a sharecropper's shack.
Oh! And another thing
it was the "house next to the dump" or "house next to the steel mill".
This would've been anywhere from mid-1800s to idk, the 50s or 60s so for all we know either place could've been a massive improvement over where they were living before. Loads and loads of people were lifted out of poverty over the past century and a half.
edit: I'd consider a house next to a steel mill, hell, maybe even a dump, an improvement over this
2022:
If the girl wants to wear pants she is put on testosterone to turn her in to a boy.
The women will be on pills regardless but she will not have a husband or children.
The men will go their own way.
The abuse still happens and no one is held accountable it is done by the grooming school system.
The boy would be shamed in to oblivion for being a boy and white.
They may not like the 50's but I bet that people were a lot happier then they are now.
No need to bet on anything, we KNOW people were happier. In fact, women in particular have gotten less and less happy as “women’s rights” have advanced:

The average woman is on happypills and wine or something stronger because she is a toxic self loathing manhater and crazy cat lady.

That article is a goldmine.
No, not strange. The traditional women don't harbor bitterness towards men and the resulting victim complex, so of course they will be happier in life.
Exactly! Traditional women feel no need to compete with men, because they know they are not men!
No, they're miserable on a subconscious, biological, and spiritual level as our society is very ill.
They'll of course lie and make up issues to advance their desires, but that doesn't mean they aren't fundamentally unhappy too.
Exactly what I was gonna post.
Milder than I was going to post. What's tge difference between creepy molester uncle and state-sponsored surgical genital mutilation?
Mainly that the long term effects of the molested person is less that the irriversible genital mutilation.
50's: Polio vaccines caused Polio. 2020's Covid vaccines cause VAIDS.
Oh yeah, big improvements:
"I have myocarditis related heart disease"
"I'm secretly straight, but I needed a promotion"
"I still can't survive without drugs, even though everyone bends over backwards for me now"
"If I dare voice independent thoughts, girls who wear pants and went to college will ruin my life and encourage my death"
"I molested someone else's sons and daughters, and not only will no-one do anything about it, the victims will be forced to pay my generous gov pension"
Those work. I was going to go with these though:
You mean, as opposed to today when it is:
Son: everyone keeps telling me I'm evil just because I was born a boy
Dad: I can't get through my day without a ton of pain meds
Mom: I have to keep smiling and acting like everything is OK, even though my life is miserable and unsatisfying
Daughter: Everyone keep telling me I'm a boy and need to get my boobs cut off
Granddad: This country is doomed, glad I'll be dying soon

Because why would you need to convince people of the world you think everyone already lives in?
-Peter Hitchens
I wonder why they all hate themselves
Yes.
Why do you think so many of them were screaming: "I wish I was aborted."
These people are ill. I can pity them, but only so long as they stop attacking.
Don't even need an Early Life on the meme's creator. I just know.
The 50s were far too progressive.
The 1750s seems like the place to shoot for.
I prefer the 1150s so we can crusade against these degenerates.
of course!
Bring some marshmallows, too.
Women today aren't on a shit ton of drugs?
Everyone is now on drugs and some very life altering like testosterone for girls...
I'm not on drugs
Everyone is on more drugs today than they would have been 70 years ago.
Gays had their own special places and straight people avoided them like the plague, keeping their damn kids out of our adult activities. Simpler times, my friends.

The slippery slope was all too real.
Not even that. Gays weren't concentrated enough to have special places. There were just a handful of gay people in a region and they basically knew each other. Everyone knew they were gay, and most of the time, nobody would bother one another.
I meant the historic gay ghettos like Boy's Town in Chicago, Chelsea/the Village, NYC, and San Francisco.
I wouldn't call those ghettos, and most of those concentrations were still taking place only during and after the "Sexual Revolution".

I didn't know polio patients used baseball bats as crutches.
Someone should inform them that is a picture and anyone can write about fictional characters
Best fix for this panel in 2022 would be photoshopping everyone into their own solo picture with no words at all. Family is over.
its funny.. in video games they force female game characters to pretty much cover up. hell, seems they also force females to do boob binding, since there are very little female characters with big boobs these days.

You can pants if you want to. You can leave feminism behind.
Now everyone is on drugs just function, was groomed in public schools, has 50 different chronic illnesses, and is an open sodomite.
But at least women can wear pants!
Progress!
Remember back in the 50's you would get four polio vaccines in the span of nine months and still get polio? How far modern medicine has come.
That caught my eye as well. Who are they kidding with this one, women take more drugs now then they ever did back then.
Yeah, you're right, your mom contributed nothing worthwhile to society.
Dude, you're defending the Imp, who's white knighting here really ?
You gonna contribute to his patreon too ?
I don't think you can read into things correctly, I'm insulting him as worthless by using his mom.
Maybe you're a weak bitch being oppressed by women, but some of us are living happily and working in tandem with them.
Especially not if it's you, Imp. Your mom should have swallowed.
