quality of life and freedom has been going downhill since the 70s

It’s every man for himself now, this country is unrecognizable compared to what it used to be.

The internet and social media are the biggest downfall of America.

It has changed the entire way people think and communicate.

It will balance out once the older generations of people die off.

Schools  also demasculine young boys so they become less like the Men of old

They are sold lbtq-values

People are soft these days

Very true.

Did you know over 50% of men in Germany prefer to pee sitting down?

It’s like technology took a leap around 2010 and things went to shit with social media.

By the end of the 70’s, neoliberalism took off in a big way under the Reagan administration.  Every succeeding president (including Trump, btw) has adhered to neoliberal dogma accompanied by the legislative branch.  The Supreme court has legalized bribery of politicians, i.e. Citizens United.  The U.S. is nothing more than an oligarchy now.  The working class has experienced a dramatic decline in their standard of living over the past 4 decades while a small group has seen their share of the wealth skyrocket as direct result of the redistributive policies put in place by the government they control.  Basic stuff IMO.

Freedom is a vague word.  F.D.R. spoke of the four freedoms.  I suspect, however, most people today will go on about some b.s. about free-markets and getting government out of their lives. *sigh*

Seems like the past couple of decades the masses have allowed it and are continuously allowing anything. Now the past few years were a good example of this, people accepted being locked down, masked, and coerced into taking experimental vaccines. The European Commission has also phased out internal combustion engine by 2030, by 2030 will also probably take drastic measures in making sure all real estate to be carbon neutral, and so forth. Citizens have no say in all of this of course, they merely need to take it up the butt.
