dude the '50s people just gossipied behind eachothers backs, and hid any problematic behaivor under a rug so no one found out.
Their silence on real issues is why generational trauma keeps going.
what you mean go back to that shit? calling it out is the exact opposite of the fifties.
Yes, that's true, but I meant about restrictive social norms. One person's norm breaking is another person's struggle for recognition
for example, a poly couple would be shamed in the 50's, or anything not heteronormative. I see what you mean
