Life was better for everyone in the 1950s

Why don't Americans celebrate Easter?

It was great, yeah. The gay kid from the hick town who got beaten to death and the guys who fell down the shaft at the coal mine and all the people who couldn't get shit like appendicitis treated were able to party together in heaven

Nobody but Americans nostalgia wanks to the 50s. For most of the world, it was pretty fucking shit, including in my cunt.

>enjoy ebic dictatorship
>get blacklisted from jobs and education because your parents were commies
>have 15 kids because birth control makes the Virgin Mary cry
>work in a mine, get black lung, die

Wish I'd been there.

no. posts above and a lot else will tell you this. what you mentioned for the woman is mostly based on the man, and not anything she can do.

Yeah I'd love dying of illnesses that are easily treatable now and people smoking everywhere. And having Bronze Age technology.

>and a good job was ready for every able bodied man who wanted to work.
As long as you were Northern European you mean. Southern Europeans didn't have the same rights back then you fuck wit.

>California population = 38.8 million

Californians are the superhumans of the America's.

but surveys show that mothers working full time are happier

In the 1950s if you had acid reflux you would have to drink milk all the damned day because antacids of the time would kill you over the long term.

That would suck.

>all these people missing the point and talking about medical advancements

Nobody is sayings the actual 1950s were better, just that society and family roles were better, ignoring technological context

>>72820114

Well...At least I can see Atom the iron arm.

Not really. For one thing, teen pregnancy was much more frequent than today, and things like spousal and child abuse were covered up.

>Czechoslovakia in the 195...
Oh god no, please take it away. Death would be better than living in that time.

As stated, Burgerland in 50's and the well being of (largely white) middle class wasn't shared by many, one of the reasons being most countries were still recovering from war and as such American industry hadn't many competitors aboard.

>>72820060
Delusional tradcon.
Life was worst for almost everyone in the 1950s in your cunt.
Go back to /pol/, you cancerous fucking idiot.

>the upper middle class had a nice life

Yes. But they also have a nice life today.

>>72824794
That being because Funland was poor and an entire generation of men had PTSD from the war.

>>72820163
>having commie parents
this was your own fault, should have run away before they raised you

>>72824811
A far better life today.

>>72824874
That's what AMERICA was like. Only a very small slice of the upper middle class during that time had some semblance of the autistic drivel in the op. Even then it is ignore all the very nasty elements of life during those times even for the extremely limited well off, which is that family life was a complete mess and housewives around the nation were paranoid wrecks being heavily prescribed with fucking cock and the like.
1950s America was a wreck of paranoia and sedatives, domestic abuse and youth pregnancy, along with all the associated diseases.

Women need to know their place. That's the problem.

American's don't drink milk to cure acid reflux? Wtf

>>72825135
>women will know their place by licking their asses and supporting them with money for nothing

you can cook, wash and take care of yourself as an adult man
you are basicly paying for the pussy if she doesnt work

how odd these sjw and wild feminist movements didnt sterm from commie states where women actually had equal rights which meant they had equal responsibilities

The 50s were ok if you lived in the US, Canada, Australia, Sweden, or Switzerland. Otherwise forget it.

>>72825231
This guy wouldn't have enjoyed the 50s either.

>>72820060
You romanticise that period a lot.

>muh libruls
/pol/tards are getting as bad as the "liblruls" they keep whining about, basically "liberal" is your word for what is their "racist", etc. Kill yourself.

>>72825353
Nor would this guy.

>>72825261
Yeah, the 50's sure were hell on earth here.

>>72824959
It was creepily Orwellian in a lot of ways.

>>72825387
There are lots of things I'd enjoy about 50's, but I'm not even going to get into the muh wrong generažion bullshit.

The first half of the decade in Europe was harsh because everyone still rebuilding from the war and some places still had rationing. Second half of the 50s was a lot better and postwar Economic Miracle had begun in western Europe.
