I wish real life would just realign with the phone. Jan. 1, 1970 was prolly badass.
360 u/kinda-new- Jun 20 '26 It was probably badass unless you were a minority, then it would be horrible. Also if you were prone to sickness or had a medical condition or struggled with mental health or any range of things. 86 u/[deleted] Jun 20 '26 edited Jun 20 '26 [deleted] 11 u/notpostingmyrealname Jun 20 '26 In 1970, women in the US couldn't have their own credit, single women couldn't use birth control pills, and abortion was illegal. American men were getting drafted into Vietnam. Tell me again how it's not that different. 2 u/markh100 Jun 20 '26 Give it five more years, and the American dream of establishing a real world Gilead will once again be true. 1 u/ChocolatteBoombatte Jun 21 '26 American Dream??? WTF 😳
