Fallen Hamprince posted:oh cool the 'economic anxiety' meme, where we learn that the richest and most employed demographic group became neonazis because of 'hopelessness' the reason they fetishize the 50s and classical gender roles is because they think that even failsons could raise a family then

The Kingfish posted:In the fifties a man could graduate highschool, get a job at the local factory, buy a house, and raise a family. That used to be an option. All I'm saying is, this economic anxiety stems from the promise of an idealized past which late capitalism fails to deliver. If they came into this world expecting to fail, they'd have never been this reactionary.

Fallen Hamprince posted:if it were economic anxiety they'd idolize the 1970s, not the '50s. economic inequality started to climb from 1980 onward, the average family wasn't better off in real terms in the 50s than they were in the 70s. i wonder why this group of overwhelmingly male whites would pick the 50s, almost as though there was some kind of social movement after that decade that they disapprove of The 70s were an unprecedented era of economic anxiety for Americans, between the oil crises and stagflation. Then again you're not American.
