Arguably the peak of our civilization. Though I am too young to have experienced the 50’s. The 80’s were the peak of my lifetime.

The postwar economic boom years were a golden time in America. People of all economic classes got richer. The suburbs expanded. Homes were inexpensive. Jobs paid well. A factory worker could easily afford to have a house, a stay-at-home wife, 3 kids, a couple of automobiles, and take the family on vacation once or twice a year.

They didn't just go insane. All the Intellectual refuse we imported from Europe went right to work over here.

Look up the Frankfurt School. Communists from Germany came to America to escape the Nazis, and started peddling their poison at Columbia University in New York. From there it spread to all of academia.

While you're at it, look up how the Nazis burned every book at the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft(Institute for sexual research).

From wikipedia:

The Institute of Sex Research was opened in 1919 by Magnus Hirschfeld and his collaborator Arthur Kronfeld,[3] a once famous psychotherapist and later professor at the Charité. As well as being a research library and housing a large archive, the Institute also included medical, psychological, and ethnological divisions, and a marriage and sex counseling office. The Institute was visited by around 20,000 people each year, and conducted around 1,800 consultations. Poorer visitors were treated for free.[citation needed] In addition, the institute advocated sex education, contraception, the treatment of sexually transmitted diseases, and women's emancipation.

Magnus Hirschfeld coined the term transsexualism,[6] identifying the clinical category which his colleague Harry Benjamin would later develop in the United States. Transgender people were on the staff of the Institute, as well as being among the clients there. Various endocrinologic and surgical services were offered, including the first modern sex reassignment surgeries in the 1930s. Hirschfeld also worked with Berlin's police department to curtail the arrest of cross-dressed individuals, including those suspected of wearing certain clothing in connection with sex work, through the creation of transvestite passes issued on behalf of the Institute to those who had a personal desire to wear clothing associated with a gender other than the one assigned to them at birth.

No, it was an intentional effort by the powers that be to destroy the unifying bonds that held the families together. They first attacked the races, then the women through Feminism, then the children through drugs and free love. It has been systematic. Read about the Communism doctrine, their subversion plans, step by step.

They had it too good and lost sight of the sacrifices it took to make this country what it was. They mistakenly thought it happened all by accident.

One purported reason was the global elite feared the higher standard of living of Americans. They didn't want John and Jane Q Public to be standing in line at their exclusive European resorts, or cluttered up their seaside vistas. They had to prevent that from happening to the greatest possible extent.

And think, Trump really believes our best days haven't happened yet. He insists that 2021 could be the single best year in American history. That HAS to make pedes excited, especially thinking he's gonna take gloves off after the election.

Funny how forced integration was the pinpoint moment decline started but we've got an image of commie MLK on the front page as some kind of visionary for America. Restore freedom of association! Restore state's rights! Restore property rights! Repeal the civil rights acts and return to Constitutionalism!

Interestingly, the civil rights movement sparked the 1965 Welfare act and 1965 Immigration Act, both of which I fault as the cause of our current issues (besides communism).

“The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants,” lead supporter Sen. Edward “Ted” Kennedy (D-Mass.) told the Senate during debate. “It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose their jobs.” (Loool) (https://www.history.com/news/immigration-act-1965-changes)

Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men (booemrs), weak men create hard times (We are here). We're probably only at the beginning of the final stage, where things are only just starting to get hard.

If we’re going to go down this path, then I’d say every generation has been progressively worse.

The 'worst' was brainwashed en masse by the rats that fled Europe in the thirties.

It's also worth noting that race relations were worse 10 years later with Democrats in power. Eisenhower did more positive action for blacks than Johnson, and things improved again under Reagan.

These were the strong people, who grew up in hard times, who had fought through, created, and were now living in good times. A golden age of American culture.

Their children, growing up in those good times, became weakened.

Eventually, those weaker children helped create the harder times we now face.

We and our children, who will fight through these harder times, will emerge stronger.

And we will create another good period for our children's children to live in. Hopefully, another American golden era.

And so the cycle goes.

We’ve been fed a big lie about how awful and stifling the 50’s were. Bullshit. It was the last civilized decade in America.

Future historians will point to 1964 as the beginning of the end.

The greatest generation came back from the war and wanted to give their children everything they never had. The problem is they forgot to give them what they did have.

See Frankfurt school. It wasn’t just a leisurely life, that simply primed them for the poisonous ideology the age-old enemy was using to subvert the West.

I wish that were true, but they had infested Hollywood by then. They had to be quiet about it though. Like pedophilia now.

Also love how everyone is wearing a suit! Even the guys not wearing one still have dress slacks and shoes

Jack_NC 5 points ago +5 / -0

exactly. denim existed, but it was for farm work, or hard labor. Shorts (short trousers worn to the knee) were for young boys.

Shoes were made of leather. Women wore dresses. Men wore hats.

Dressing well was a sign of respect for others. A scruffy 3-day beard was considered a sign of impending mental illness.

Best of all, no trans-whatever perverts screeching and demanding justice.

sadly, that was 70 years ago. Most of the people in this photo are surely dead, which makes me sad but not for the obvious reason. I hope they didn't live to see America so wrecked.

lifeisahologram 5 points ago +5 / -0

Very interesting. I think how you dress also affects how you behave as well, because it can definitely affect tour mentality. Dress nice, you’ll behave like an adult.

I think society moving away from this has probably contributed to why so many “adults” behave like children, and are infantile.
