About living in the 1920's, you would've had to go through the Great Depression and possibly die of starvation and THEN if you survive that, you drafted and shipped off to Europe or the Pacific and possibly get killed fighting the Germans or the Japanese. THEN if you survive WW2, you enter the Cold War era where you have to worry about getting blown away in a nuclear war or getting called a Communist and sent to prison or getting killed by racists if you complain even slightly about segregation.

Technically Champagne was not unlimited in the 1920's because of, you know, Prohibition

[@danshylboodhoo2455]

Also, France more or less just got a monopoly on Champagne. On the name that is. WWI had just ended, and the Treaty of Versailles had just been signed. One of the clauses of the Treaty was that only France could name a drink Champagne. Any other country had to content itself with sparkling wine. Leave it to the French to include such a clause in the treaty concluding the biggest war yet.The only exception is California, because US never signed the treaty; only Californian Champagne and French Champagne exist. So it's not like Champagne was that common.

[@LMSPetRescue]

Champagne no, but general alcohol? Surprisingly yes. Like the war on drugs, the more a government or general authority restricts something with high demand and tries to get rid of it the farther underground it’s driven leaving quantity unchecked and causing an even bigger problem than before because alcohol is addictive so people would do anything to get their hands on it and leaving them unable to quit because they couldn’t come forward and seek help for their addiction in fear of prosecution because their addiction is illegal. Plus despite it being illegal it wasn’t a super well in forced law because the cops and people in power or wealth were also drinking just behind the backs of their judgmental family members

When people say "I should have been born in this or that decade because the music was better" it always makes me want to facepalm so hard. It's 2016, all of that music STILL EXISTS, and you can get it for cheaper than you could have ever before (if even paying at all). And you can meet people on the Internet who got together because of their love for that music so finding people to discuss it with is easier. And besides, popular music may not be of your liking, but what you don't know is that the shitty music from back then doesn't filter down to our times, we don't remember it. And there is soooo much more good music nowadays, so many people are able to produce music at amazing production levels completely impossible for them in earlier decades and they can share it with anyone in the world, if you got off your ass and looked for it a little you would find a lot of great music and music that fits your own personal tastes. But mostly: the music back then STILL EXISTS. You can listen to the music from all the "cool music decades" in one sitting. It's the benefit of being in the future.

+forman208 because people who complain about music from today are annoying as fuck

[@wonderlus]

Ah yes, all the music still exists and could be downloaded, but certain aspects will never be able to be revived in later decades. Example being concerts. People who are born in later generations may love My chemical romance ( a recent reference). Their music will be around, but that person will NEVER be able to see them live in concert because the band has been broken up. Or maybe they are a fan of Tupac, no live concerts for him either. No, that person may never experience the anticipation of waiting for a CD to be released, or a possible meet n' greet. While yes, there is the pro of being in the future of meeting people who like the same band as you, there are also people who will shit on your opinion even though it doesn't affect them in the SLIGHTEST (I know i'm being a little hypocritical, but people who exclaim that people annoy them for stating their opinion irk me just a tiny bit ;) ). Also, you're being a little judgemental believing that the person who states that opinion hasn't tried to find music that fit their own taste. POSSIBLY, they had searched for music that fit their taste, and their music comes from a different decade's pop rather than our own because I can see why some people don't like it with the negative messages in reference to girls some of the time. So! I would kindly suggest to make the world a better and happier place for all, that you kindly hold that sour and judgemental opinion you have of people for saying some words that is also your opinion and does not hold as much weight as your's. Seeing as I don't want to be hypocritical, I will say you do not have to pay attention to this at all c: have a good day

Space Cadet I'm not denying that, there was a lot of racism, the 1950s-1970's were a time of massive social and demographic changes in Britain, To me it kinda feels like the 70's could have been more racist than the 60s though. But yeah you also have Smethick 1964 Election, the 1st sentence on BBC 2 included "Dirty Wog" (Not sure in what context though) Also Black face was thing I.e Ministerial performances etc Although from what I have heard and seem on TV documentaries about the past in Britain.

[@smar712]

yeah they're going to read in their history books that people didn't have the same rights because of their sexual preference then everyone will be like wow what assholes

[@CrazyBoyAndyTV]

More likely is they'll read in the hostory books that the 21st Century was when equal rights for men, women, gays, blacks etc actually took major steps forward, for most countries...

Depends, if politics continue to degrade and global warming results in vast areas being uninhabitable, it could be seen as the golden age. Think of the Roman Empire decline - at a certain point the best years were indeed behind them versus ahead.

[@ihavekalashnikovyoudomath9275]

I'd love to see a part two to this. I love watching someone's romanticized view of a decade be crushed by the truth of what happened. That way they appreciate what we have now, and take what we learned from the past to improve now

You know what decade I would've killed it in? The one where dinosaurs weren't fully developed and small. I would've been the apex predator

[@haltopen12]

so a time where there are no clothes, no other people (so no procreating or sex or conversations ever) and the chemical composition of the air is different so breathing would likely be hard

[@nisteven]

Um you know, they was other apex predator before the dinosaurs right? Inostrancevia look that creature up, it a example of a apex predator before the dinosaurs and it would rip you to shreds. Was over 10ft long with a massive skull and massive teeth. Well good luck.

Every time has its ups and downs, but that doesn't mean this decade isn't worse on all levels. Wars, toxic ideologies, economic ruin, hatred, and horrible music. It makes sense to wish to leave this hell.

Every generation has said this, People in 1920s were nostalgic about the 1890s-1900s, people in 1940s and 1950s were nostalgic about the 20s, People in the 70s and 80s were nostalgic about the 50s and 60s, People in the 90s were nostalgic for the 70s and 60s,. In the 2000s people were nostalgic about the 70s and 80s. in the 2010s its about the 80s and 90s, and in 2020, it's the 2000s and the 90s.
