Are we back in the 1950s?

I feel like the political and social climate today mirrors that of the 1950s.

In the 1950s the blues became electrified upbeat music called rock n roll that people seemed more interested in dancing to than concentrating on lyrics. Much of the older generation dismissed that music as evil and devoid of substance. Today the music has taken an intensely electric dance form with simple lyrics. Even voices are electrified. A lot of people are complaining about how the new music is evil and meaningless. When I was a teen in the 90s I don't remember a lot of complaining from the older generation about 90s music. I was too young in the 80s to notice the adults saying anything about 80s music.

McCarthyism was all the rage then. People were quick to demonize their enemies and label them communist. Today it seems like a people feel that the majority of the politicians are communist along with a majority of citizens who support this regime. It seems that if someone holds political views that some people don't agree with, they are labeled communist.

People were freaking out over imminent nuclear destruction...building shelters and preparing for life after a nuclear holocaust. Maybe only GLP does that these days, but still...

Racial tension started to grow in intensity and eventually lead to a climax in the early to mid 1960s. We again got racial tension on the rise because of immigration and what's perceived as reserve racism.

The television became a consumer product so a good chunk of Americans became wrapped up in a manufactured electronic world. Today we got Ipods, do it all cell phones. We got a world dominated my electronic products that consume the souls of many of us.

I didn't live any the 50s, but the events going on right now remind me of what I read in the history books.

Whats next? Maybe we are going back in time. We gotta go through a huge world war to mirror the 40s and then a major depression to mirror the 30s then eventually work our way back to the stone ages.
