Simple question for anyone over at least 30.
Many people are in this camp:
Back then we didn’t have dumb/smartphones and we were capable of communication unlike the nerdy generation Z. Maybe that’s an over generalization.
Back then we had more or less steadier countries, with fewer immigration (Western or not).
Back then we listened to real doctors and the influence of the social medias anti-vaxxers was basically non-existant. Hence measles and other generally easily prevented childhood illness were almost eradicated.
Etc etc, feel free to add more points.
I’m a bit in between both camps, there is some right and wrong... listening to their arguments.
Interested to hear your thoughts on this trendy, often debated topic; especially from much older members.
What makes the year 2019 better than 1999, or 1979? Is everything from the contemporary culture just crap and people are much more rude and glued to their iPhones?
