Trad style or just bad parenting?

We want meaning and purpose and social norms. We don't want the actual 50's, we want how our parents remembered the 50's.

Tradition would be super sad if it stopped at the 1950’s, but there’s something that feels really purposeful about perpetuating ancient rituals, meaningless as they may seem.

I think a lot of people experience modernity as a kind of unhinged exhibitionism of monstrosity and ugliness. A lot of these people do in fact want to stuff things back in the closet on the principle that if they can't see the suffering it's not real.

Neoliberalism rewards the people who are extreme. It's a high variance contest dominated by the combination of extreme beauty and extreme ugliness. https://blakemasters.com/post/24578683805/peter-thiels-cs183-startup-class-18-notes … Modern capital is a freakshow. Mopers imagine 1955 wasn't, but back then they'd likely have it worse.pic.twitter.com/QPrCrpyK5X

How is the 50s a trad family? It's still constrained by capitalistic norms/urges of consumerism but with vintage aesthetics. Besides, I reckon most modern men couldn't handle the responsibility as seen in Amish/Mennonite communities. Aella, what were consumption models like 4u?

My dad was an ordained minister, sole breadwinner/entrepreneur, mom was stay at home housewife, had dinner for him every night. He had final say for family decisions and full responsibility for our income. Divorce was absolutely not an option.
