When I was a kid, we went to Riga in the 90s and every was so fucking cheap back then.

You sound like everyone's parents here. Like how cheap everything was from bread and fruits to movies and trams back in the Soviet times.

what did he mean by this?
>>61586098
Is it really a matter of race though?
For example, if you put forward the idea that it is based on IQ, then surely the homogeneous Asian populations should be human paradises, but China is not.

somebody tinted a perfectly good b/w photo
>>61586341
I didn't presume the phrase in the end of the video implied that it's a matter of race and I don't believe that IQ is a valid and reliable way to measure intelligence. I'm just saying 'it' didn't go wrong everywhere, but some sort of research must be done in order to find out why, or else >>61586070

I'm gonna be honest with you and blame it on Hitler and America.
The Soviets kept their lands homogenous.

These are all very stunning.
Do you have a particular liking for early 20th century America or is this a meta form of banter?
Liberalism, the media, and America are to blame for pretty everything we don't like.
>Liberalism
Memes aside, at its roots liberal movements are a charitable set of ideals based on increasing the quality of life fir otherwise disadvantaged persons, the poor and working class, children, refugees, &c. Unfortunately, it works sort of like medicine, the right dose, of the right prescription, can be very helpful, but too much and/or the wrong type can be fatal
>Media
You could also call this one Jews or the mouthpiece of liberalism, but on its own it's still a cancer on healthy society. Media sets trends and informs culture, therefore the quality of one's society is only so food as the quality of one's media.
>America
In the beginning of their Civil Rights movement blacks dressed, spoke, and acted, like every other person. As America resisted the blacks seperated farther and farther from the mainstream, creating a violent and disgusting culture. This, mixed witybthe fact that their antics were entertaining and the media saturation of their "culture" spread like wildfire throughout the world. That's why London ir Paris are full of chavs and blacks in baggy clothes and flat brimmed NYY hats

I admit I have a soft spot for early america. it's a fascinating story
Despite the poverty and inequality they clearly had something that's lacking today, I thin
>>61586021
Slavery ended.
How about photos of the slums? Or overcrowded prisons or mental institutions?

I just don't get the point of the thread what actually "went wrong" according to you?
>>61589696
Not at all, I just love the brutality of those lift bridges and the trains and factories and all.
From a time when smokestacks were designed to be beautiful.
I don't know, that's why I asked the question. I posted some photos because it's an image board and I'm hoping to get some sharing going.
>>61590558
>>61590597
I don't have any pictures of Australia at that time to show, but hypothetically I could post pictures of grand colonial style boulevards and imperial buildings or I could post pictures of wharfside slums and open air latrines. Yes there was great stuff at the time but most of us wouldn't be in that elite who would have been able to enjoy. It's pure delusion to hail that time of history as some hallmark of a model society.

no one said it was perfect. but it was far superior in terms of people's dress and in terms of architecture and urban design.
>>61590899
Doesn't look that bad, just messy. The people living there should just have enough self-respect to clean up.
>1850's new york
Well that explains it.
>>61590943
Always weird watching an old movie then going on IMDb and seeing they're dead or extremely old.
Nothing went wrong.
Working class people stopped having to work 10 each day for 50 pence a day and started showing their faces at Broadway.
Small stores were reformed into chains with increased efficiency and lower prices.
You guys are feeling nostalgic towards a society where only one percent of the people were actually a part of. The rest lived in slums or on the countryside.
Pic rel is a contemporary photograph of the Henley Royal Regatta, where probably none of you guys were present.

I'd trade modern day luxuries for a life as a poor farmer any day if it got rid of the niggers and muslims.
>>61591078
I don't think anyone is denying there were great problems with poverty and working class working conditions
>>61591208
What people don't realise is that there is a direct connection with why those pictures look so great.
Working class people had no business walking around in places like that.
The reason why the buildings changed in California Street, San Francisco is that extremely large corporations moved in to streets like that, and required high office buildings.
>>61591388
Don't you think there's something to be said of the architecture and people?
>>61589873
its a tourist thing, they rent them out for them.
I'd love to walk around these places and interview people. I feel like so many stories have been lost and the only shred of evidence that they were ever around is a face in the corner of one of these photographs.
>>61591562
fascinating isn't it
>>61591608
Yeah, and I think about my granparents generation who are the last ones to have any meaningful connection to that time and they're all passing on now.
Although not the most enjoyable read, to me 'Mrs Dalloway' by Virginia Woolf very much captures the sense of an era passing you by.

A bit, but I'm more attached to the period itself than any particular area.
America usually has the best examples of the stark change though, and quite often the architecture is beautiful and new

I do admit, things looked more orderly back than, although that's probably because the photos are black and white.

Technological advancement. Specifically, two things - improvements in medicine, and the modern pervasiveness of the automobile.
Lower infant mortality has lead to dramatic overpopulation relative to previous centuries. Look at these photos. Notice how there are way fewer people. No chavs everywhere smoking cigarettes as they haul their 5 fetal-alcohol babies around. No swarms of people everywhere during the work day.
Cars are the other part of the equation - no rush hour traffic, no weathering of all the building faces from the exhaust.
Fewer people, and no cars.
>>61589928
that's because it was; argentina was actually on track to becoming notable back in the day. iirc they had a similar gdp to italy in the 20's.
>>61593944
Addition - people dressed better, too.
Not sure if I'm willing to sacrifice comfort for aesthetics though.

Many women paddling the boat because they are making life comfortable for her man who is working hard to keep his family alive and fed. Today women are useless. I am talking about the average self entitled narcissist woman who is both traditionalist and feminist at the same time. They have nothing to offer to a man.
>>61594025
they got that way in the first place by massively opening their doors to european immigrants, much like the usa did, and making education compulsory and free, encouraging agricultural production (which, even today is one of their biggest sectors; they sell lots of beef especially).
started to go to shit when they had a military coup d’état in the thirties, then the great depression hit which also affected them, THEN they later had another coup in the seventies, this one aided by the usa because they elected a leftist government and the us didn't like that, and then yet again this idiot named carlos menem ended up being elected around the nineties and doing awful shit like ripping out all their fucking railroads; even to this day, if you say his name, you apparently bring bad luck on yourself.
few things, all in relative succession. argentina still happens to be arguably the most developed nation in south america, though, make of that what you will.
>>61594311
It's a bit slanted on the right side isn't it?
I only appreciate this era from a purely architectural standpoint. I don't like the skyscrapers we built after ww2, and it ruined manhattan desu.
Imagine if all those glass boxes in midtown and downtown were art deco? The place would be a Unesco site.

What do you mean by unnecessary? Because with the course Europe was on throughout the 19th century it was basically inevitable in some form.
