[QUOTE="PackersRS, post: 383092, member: 1429"] Never made the point that today's TV is more or less moral. We have Jersey Shore, for crying out loud. The point is, you're painting the past with rose-collored glasses. You said that the past TV's shows had more moral, which is clearly false. Beating up women was thought of as banal. Both generations have faults and merits. It's different. Not worse. People were generally more polite back then, but it was because communities were much more closed, and people knew each other more. Nowadays, with the speed of everything, it's not common anymore to say hello to people, because there are simply too many of them. But what is thought of as better isn't. It's because communities were more closed, that minorities such as blacks and hispanics were much, MUCH more disciminated than nowadays. It doesn't mean everybody did it, but it was A LOT more common. My late granpa still used to shudder everytime he saw a black man on a prominent role, because in his days it didn't happen. You might think it's better, because to you it was. But to a lot of people it wasn't. [/QUOTE]
