The only question you asked was, "does anyone want to move in to a living situation completely dissimilar to the one described in the OP (which effectively no longer exists, contrary to the point I was trying to make)? Didn't think so ๐"
Bruh, the meme is a frame of western modern movie with western actors glamorizing the past, palatable version of which never actually existed. It is a propagandist solution for the global housing crisis
It's "Make X Great Again" from the other end of the horseshoe
Idk how to engage with this populist twisted media in direct good faith argument. At the very least, my joke gives more information to those struggling with housing to seek out better opportunities
Yeah man verifiable data that happens to be reflected in one movie is exactly the same as psychosexual nostalgia for a 1950s coke commercial America that never existed. Everything anyone earnestly believes in is all equally stupid regardless of what it is, there is no alternative to the tepid slow death liberalism.
