      I guess it depends on the lense. Accepting various sexually? Sure. Our politics and the general state of things? I wouldn’t describe us that way.

        Bro for real, I need some examples of in which ways are things politically and the general state of things worse. There may be some things that have slightly regressed, but I can only think of 1. In almost all ways things have bettered since the 40s.

        Compared to the politics and the general state of the 1940s? I, uh, would very much emphasize that the past is a much uglier place.

          For now. There’s huge groups of people wanting to make the world 1940 again. And even more idiots that are willing to help.
