Disingenuous. Our values are not weaker today. More countries are democracies than ever. War is getting more rare. When was our values better? During the time of segregation or apartheid? Or back when nobody talked about child abuse and the Catholic Church abused children left and right? Was our values better during the crack pandemic of the 80s?

Nostalgia and glorification of the past is such a standard right-wing talking point. Hitler built his whole career on it.
