There’s a reason why people romanticize the 50s. That’s around the time we started with the BS television propaganda about some fictional American life that never really existed and game shows.

Personally think a lot of the reason we romanticize the 50s is because the majority of folks talking about it were kids growing up during it and can only see it through the rose-colored glasses of nostalgia. I’m 27 and even I can recognize that the days of my youth, however “happy” they might seem upon reflection, were anything but “romantic.”
