Because America and the western powers were in peak smug mode.

They ruled the fucking world and everyone was having fun, doing coke and making shallow pop music and fashion and nobody gave a fuck if they looked bad.

When a country gets high on its own power and success, the entire population prospers with its own comfort.

The 90s were just as smug and happy as the 80s, and the smugness ended in 2001 after 9/11. Prove me wrong. We haven't gotten back to an age of western harmony and prosperity for a long time.

The 80's were not happy and fun, it was a disgusting time full of cringy costumes and terrible music. If you don't agree refer to the fucking safety dance or dancing in the street. It was period of change that resulted in a decade that should be wiped from the history books.

Hmm, well I was just a kid in the 80's (born in 70's) so for me it was still a time of innocence.
I guess there were still lots of problems in the world, but they seem somehow worse now. Like wages have stagnated for decades, even though housing and food prices increased. Overall the poor got poorer and the rich got richer, and the middle class much smaller.
I also like the 80's music and films more. Even the computers were better (Atari ST and Amiga were last good home computers IMO).

>>77620821

Europe was more conservative

The crazy liberal insanity train had not left the station yet.

One thing that liberals do well is slowly nibble away conservative issues. The slippery slope is a very true issue when dealing with liberals. Compromise is never a true compromise only another step towards total liberalism. Liberals want to force their agenda on everyone.

Conservatives believe they are right and want others to believe they are right. They want to protect conservatives but don't spend alot of time trying to convert liberals to conservatives. They see things as black and white so they try for large change and fail frequently.

Conservatives need to try for small incremental change and not swing for the fences. They also need new players who are credible and electable. Preferably at the Governor level so they get some experience actually running things. All of the old guard should be out, they have tried and failed to many times, if they were electable they would have been elected.

The current group couldn't beat Trump and that is pretty sad.

A more conservative world will lead to another great era. A more liberal world just leads to social decline and chaos.

It doesn't work when Conservatives refer to themselves as Conservatives. Conservatives is a loaded term; it doesn't mean one person, it means many people- many people with a certain political ideology. Which is problematic, because if everything isn't black and white, then not all of the people in the Conservative group 100% share the exact same ideologies- how will Conservatives change themselves if Conservatives can't even agree on who Conservatives are supposed to be?

>Conservatives don't need to change! We're right! Fuck you, you libcuck, it's this way, and it's only this way!
>You're a libcuck, libcuck!
>Cuck!
>Cuck!
>Cuck!
>Cuck!

Bob Dole likes Bob Dole. Bob Dole would probably think that Conservatives need to do more than change tactics- they need to reinvent themselves as well. They need to de-cult-ify.
>>
It's was a combo of different things.

Housing/Gas was cheaper and jobs were FAR better in terms of relative pay. Factory work was only just starting to disappear. People could still afford to raise a family and buy a house at mid-retail level work.

Conservatives values weren't outright mocked like they are today. There was a substantial push back against the free love hippie movement of the 70s.

Also, sexual promiscuity was far lower once the AIDS epidemic hit. (Herpes also hit big time but its usually forgotten because of how big AIDS was). STDs beforehand were basically fully curable.

Heh, that S-100 bus stuff is from late 70's. I never even saw one. My first computer experience was with an Osborne-1 CP/M computer around 1982 though, so I guess that's kinda close. It didn't have any HDD of course (much too expensive). My own first computer was an Amstrad CPC a few years later. It could run CP/M, but I mostly used the BASIC ROM environment for everything. That was also my favorite computer. Amiga was more powerful, but the CPC was so simple to code even in Z80 assembly language.

Also, here's some fun videos:

It'll be the 90s all over again. Our next 80s would happen by 2030, because at that point all of the people who grew up in "the good old days" will approach the "crotchety old people" threshold, and be thos that the rest of the world looks to/has to take care of/is skeptical of/ignores.

I used payphones for a very, very long time, even as a young adult. It was pretty nice to not have to carry cellphone around all the time, and worry about charging it, etc. I used to read books in public transport. Others commonly read newspaper or magazines, listed to walkman (with tapes, not CD). It was common to make mix tapes from songs on the radio.

The Amstrad CPC was more or less equivalent to the C64, and popular in UK, France, Spain, and Germany, but not so much elsewhere. Here's a site with game reviews to give an idea of what it's capable of:
http://www.cpcgamereviews.com/index.html
The cool thing is there were tons of different computers those days. Not just big stuff like Commodore or MSX, but also very region-specific ones like some that were only sold in France or Australia. So effectively a very healthy, diverse ecosystem of computers, unlike today where mostly everything is Intel or ARM (except for microcontrollers and stuff like that). I used to read the computer magazines and find each computer type beautiful in its own unique way. But it has been decades since I felt that way. Now the whol industry feels a little empty to me.

Yes i'd imagine living in a totalitarian communist state, being monitored by the Stasi , barely being able to visit family in West Germany due to very strict protocol, whilst West Germans could move more freely, living with modern tech whilst the East were stuck in the doldrums of the USSR, not to mention being shot for trying to cross the Berlin Wall

These threads come up so many times and the most important aspect to "better" times was that there were more jobs that paid fair wages. THAT'S IT. Seriously. Stop fucking over-romanticizing the 80's. Jesus, they weren't that cool. Until you realize that is the most fundamental (and essential) piece of the puzzle, all you spergs will focus on sjw's and other effects of a nation wide lowering of the general standard of living over the last 30 years.

>it's a berenstein episode
Haven't seen one of these in a while. Shame that whole satanic ritual happened in september 2001 and let the ghoulies in through the wormhole.

>that tape deck

I remember when I was old enough that my parents felt comfortable leaving me home alone (12) for an afternoon and evening.

Not a "latch key kid", just they would go out occasionally and trusted me at home.

>watch MTV
>play Sega Master System
>load music into Dad's Sony tape deck
>turn up Marantz receiver
>not too loud, don't want to hurt Dad's speakers
>music was happy
>music videos were happy
>life seemed good and full of hope

WTF happened?

Reagan fucked some things up, but what stands out is that he reversed the Carter recession, made our military great again, and bankrupted communism.

70s had some really good music, but I wasn't too impressed with the 90s. Most of it was just edgy shit influenced by hardcore punk. The pop was like a bad parody of god tier 80s pop.

compared to the 60s, 70s, 90s, 00s it's by far the best decade.

I'm not going to say he was all bad, but he paved the way for Clinton's NAFTA. I mean, globalists are gonna globe, but I think that his brand of conservatism ushered in the de-industrialization of the USA a little faster than it needed to be.

God, what a mess, on the ladder of success
Where you take one step and miss the whole first rung
Dreams unfulfilled, graduate unskilled
It beats pickin' cotton and waitin' to be forgotten

We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
The daughters and the sons

Clean your baby womb, trash that baby boom
Elvis in the ground, no waitin' on beer tonight
Income tax deduction, what a hell of a function
It beats pickin' cotton and waitin' to be forgotten

We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
Not the daughters and the sons

Unwillingness to claim us, ya got no war to name us

The ones who love us best are the ones we'll lay to rest
And visit their graves on holidays at best
The ones who love us least are the ones we'll die to please
If it's any consolation, I don't begin to understand them

We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
Daughters and the sons
