How can people be so blind to their own nostalgia?

[Deserter3]

Everyone thinks things were the best when they were in their youth and the further society strays from that the more they believe it to be proof of the degradation of society.

That’s not even remotely true. There would be no such thing as progress if that were true; let alone progressive political parties and social movements.
Are you under the influence of drugs? How did you come up with such a cockamamy theory?

[Deserter3]

Because you oldheads ignore progress and fixate on what you don't like. How are things worse.

What each person believes to be proof of the degradation of society is subjective. You may not agree, but from where I sit, it's valid.
