Questions: Other

For example, I'd say that the 1950s—which were once heavily romanticized, but I'm not noticing this as of the 2020s, which is interesting—were more like the 1920s for certain than they are the 2020s. I used to romanticize the 1950s as a child, which is why this observation interests me so much. It does make sense, since they're only 3 decades apart, but it's still interesting to me to think that my grandparents lived through an era that was more similar to the 1920s (which are ancient to me, not nostalgic in any way) than our modern times. It also begs the question: are the 60s, 70s, and 80s more like the 1920s or the 2020s?

In fact, you can even use this post to talk about connections you notice between different decades that are over a decade apart (for example, when I was younger and obsessed with the 80s, I absolutely noticed more parallels between the 80s and 50s than I did the 70s and 50s).

Just wondering if people think this.
