They just want to be able to voice those opinions again . What opinions? Oh , you know .... those opinions ...
SirJamesMonster42
And the rich paid loads of taxes. Wages were better. Housing was affordable. Infrastructure was paid for. Damn commie Eisenhower. /s
ObliqueRay
'50s or 50s. Not 50's. The image you posted literally points to the correct usage.
indigodragons
Lmao. Back in the day when the clitoris’s nerves were not included in medical texts! ????
hijindc
Those weren't invented until much later
asdt4fd5ydfjk
Back when a dumbfuck highschool dropout could get a manufacturing job ( with on the job training ) and still afford a house in the burbs.
gwhh
The polio guy made out ok. He can still walk
SunBrolem
Rightoids want to "go back" to a society that never existed.
TheArrestingAbhorrentArrantAbominableAlliterator
Don't forget 90% tax on the wealthy and high corporate taxes! Oh... huh. Where's the People of Color???
JohnSmithterms
A 50% capital gains tax + a 70% income tax for the highest income tax band would be great to bring back + 0% for under $20 000
XXXSpork
And the absence of any people of color tells you the rest of what they want.

Even though this has been posted before, it's important to note the issues we're still dealing with.

'We'? Oh! The US! Okay, got it.

grandpadoug63
Disagree! I grew up in the 50's and it wasn't like this, just a simpler time!
bluerazzgummy
I mean, yes thats exactly what they want to go back to
BlairBarley
Yeah - but they want to be the grandad, so that makes sense.
SomeDetroitGuy
The 50s were great for white, straight, cis, educated men too old to be drafted to fight in Korea.
supraman2turbo
Yeah I want to go back the economy in the 1950s...
Unclescam
Only thing changed is we beat polio...I think it's making a comeback because God fucking dammit
sharievan
The Fuck? Things are unequivocally better than in the 50's, people just think it's getting worse.
Rifneno
Naw, polio's in its death throes. Measles and shit is making a comeback, but polio's a lock for 3rd disease eradicated
Thatbotwhatup
Um you okay bud. The grandpa is plausible but nowadays we are a lot better around that and the drugs one I grant you but the rest. Improved
SteveSteveSteve55
Yeah. It was kinda our fault. CIA used vaccination campaigns as cover. We own this disaster.

Not if the anti vax idiots have their way.

Azazellosarmour
My GQP neighbor tells me he has the “right” to live on an America with no Blacks, Jews, “Mexicans”, or gays. He doesn’t view anyone listed
Azazellosarmour
as being a “real American” and the USA is for white Christians, ie “Real Americans”. This is how they can so easily deny otherstheir rights

Don't forget the 90% tax top bracket.

Black people in this neighborhood be like:

idk why I'm getting downvoted. Black people were not allowed to live in white neighborhoods back then.

Also 1950's: buying a large home for a family of 8 with one regular salary. Finding a job without having experience.
thevortexmaster
Why no racism?
MissySassy
There’s always racism but I think everyone this pic has a medkit so they are not racists
WolfRamX4
You forget. They want to go back to the 1950's, but without any of the actually good thing from the 1950's. They just want the racism+hate.
ObliqueRay
1950s* Not 1950's. It is literally spelled out in the image you're responding to.
JethroSkrull
Speaking of polio, those vaccine "needles" for polio we're so crazy they would leave a scar

But wasn't US economically better than now? I kind of understood that Reagan fucked up poor and middle class.
Armored0Titan0
Regan’s polices exploded our national debt, created the environment that allowed the housing crash of 08, created the crack epidemic, 1/2
TheMeowntainThatRides
For white people, sure. For everyone else not so much.
Armored0Titan0
destroyed the need of businesses to focus on anything other than share value, and is in fact responsible for almost everything 2/3
Armored0Titan0
wrong with the US politically, diplomatically, and economically in the modern era. 3/3
FuzzyWolfy329
If your only reason to go back is the economy, then I suggest reevaluating your perspective.
TargetedAdBot
I didn't say that
bubbawasmybestgoodfriend
Everyone in the photo: "we are all deeply racist"
xavierrobertson899
Yeah, but at least there was no one on the internet to complain about the racism
SgtIronballs
Did you forget an /s ?
BillHubbard
As if that changes much?
fiddlewheelx
I read that with an "audience voice"
nachosyndicate
I came down to say this.
Jasonreissue
photo?
mohavewolfpup
Nah…. /s
indigodragons
I bet someone in the photo is like, “You are my only Jewish friend bc you’re a good Jew.” Ppl who say that can rot.
ForeveraKritik
Technically, people who don't say that can also rot.
SarcasticComment
Ex GF's dad commented that the black family on the street was one of the good ones... thank fuck I never married into that

My wife did a genetic test. Came back 1/25th Jewish. Her MAGAt step-father immediately said "I KNEW IT!" with ALL the subtext.

Will also cling to their 0.5% unproven Cherokee ancestry.

MeanWinchester
People's goodness or badness is nothing to do with their race, religion, colour, gender, sexual orientation, nationality etc etc etc
SarcasticComment
Which is why I say, "equality will be a trans person playing an asshole with no explanation of sorrowful back story."
SarcasticComment
Thet closest they get is "tortured soul that is still an inspiration" not "unapologetic completely vindictive asshole"
gdex86
Missing the point dear. You shouldn't have to be "good" to be treated like a person. Shitty people still shouldn't have to deal with racism.
SarcasticComment
Doubt. Like every group of people, they have turds who float to the top.

Sounds like someone needs some CRT.
Gosuamakenatek
Oh yeah, it's so fucking racist to imply that most white people were probably racist during the segregationist 50s, how fucking dare they.
SirButcher
The 50' in the US was racists as fuck. Most white people were perfectly fine with it or didn't care.

Notable difference between the racism of the oppressed and the racism of oppressors. Neither good, but one is a bit worse.
Gosuamakenatek
Well shit, MAYBE they couldn't make laws about it because they were too busy not being allowed in any positions of power!
