So in other words, all the "good stuff" happened "back then" and everything from today is "crap".
This sums up how every "older" generation views the trappings of the "younger" generation.
It's a generational thing. That's just sort of how it goes as you get old.
The 1960's may have catalyzed it, but it's been going on forever. Talking to my then 96-year-old grandmother a few years ago, she still vividly remembered how much her parents disapproved of the speakeasies, bobbed haircuts, revealing clothes, and heaven-forbid; jazz-music of the 1920's that she and her friends enjoyed so very much.
