- asoneth 5y ago> And that was a good thing!" Interesting, I came away with the impression that the author was implying that some of these changes (i.e. better understanding of toxicity, therapy, wage gaps, redlining, gerrymandering) to be positive changes to provide more nuance in their post than just a list of raw nostalgia.
- jasonlotito 5y ago> And that was a good thing! The article literally questions that conclusion. "Were those the good old days? It’s tough to say." It's as if there were advantages and disadvantages. It's easy to view the past as "good" but the reality, as presented in this article, was really a mixed bag.
