    Also I think that nostalgia works in a way where we remember more good times than hardships; humans are good adapting to any bullshit situation to the point we can call it comfortable and finally we look kindly to the past because old people remember mostly being young and healthy above all (despite not making this link mentally).

    That’s why everyone has this nostalgia for their youth, not because the 60s or 80s where a good time.

      “wasn’t the world so much better back before we ruined everything for everyone? Why can’t we go back to those times?”

      Sure, like how white conservatives in the USA want life to be like the 1950s
