It is a basic tenet of human existence, that life always used to be better in the past. 500 years ago, Lucas Cranach the Elder painted 'The Golden Age', evoking a halcyon time when man and women and animals co-existed in a peaceful, shame-free existence, you know just like the 60s/70s/80s/90s (pick your era). It is a fallacy that must be resisted, it retards our development as a species.
