It was, in a way, much easier to get along back in the 1970s. You didn't have to walk on eggshells in case you were accidentally "offending" someone.
Um, you still don't. And it's not better for people to feel free to hurt others.
I think he was saying that people were more secure so they were not offended at stupid s**t.
I am not saying racism is stupid s**t.
But you don't have to walk on egg shells because most egg shells are stupid s**t.
You can't even joke about stupid s**t now.
Because we care so much if we offend a special snowflake. Where as back then, they got over it. Take feminism for example and I am not saying women shouldn't have rights but some take it too far and earn snowflake status. You can't become so political correct that it becomes a double standard. If females want special treat under feminism, then everyone else deserves special treatment too under whatever special snowflake machine they walk under.
