Because a republican was president and instead of degeneracy being popular like in the 60s, 70s, 90s, and present times, people aspired to work hard and become rich. Popular fashion was collared shirts, tucked in pants, and retro hats. Basically everybody dressed like frat guys

crime in the inner cities were awful

stop idolizing shit based on shitty pictures and media

Fuck you faggot Reagan destroyed America

>crime in the inner cities were awful
>not the 1990s

Idiot.

No, what destroyed America is the fact that nobody built he wall afterwards.
Anyways, all I am saying is having a republican in office made people more conservative in their life.’it is happening again now that trump is president. You sound like a bitch

>Implying rural and suburban whites give one single fuck about inner city crime.

>The real problem was we didnt have da wall!!
Reagan was a neocon closet commie cuck who sold out the future of America to keep America hedonistic. Say whatever you want but he destroyed this country. Reaganomics was a gigantic failure and he was corporate lapdog.
>Granted Amnesty to all illegals, ensuring California (a reliably red state) turned a solid blue forever and is the kickstarter for spics to get political power in the U.S
>Ushered in Neo-Conservatism in America
>Cut up American steel factories and sent them to China
>Favored deregulatory economic policies that while was good for a short while, started our gigantic hikes on our national debt
>He was also the beginning of the destruction of the family unit by implementing No Fault Divorce, tried to pass it off as "A conservative thing to do"
>Firearms owner protection act
You're a faggot if you actually like him. I can't think of a single thing he did right.

Fewer shitskins
Hangover from the 60s and 70s
Economic boom
Reagan
no Political Correctness
Housing was affordable
Cocaine

Cocaine is based. Jules Verne used to get buzzed up on it before writing his books.

but at least you had to go and find it in the 80s, it wasn't on network TV or just a few clicks away
actually not even clicks anymore, someone can just open their phone and get on instagram and get more lewd stuff than what people had to physically travel to a seedy joint to find back in the 80s

Hope you shitty little wife beater racecucks enjoy the last weekend of normalcy you'll ever have.

Look at you, thumping your flabbly chests, thinking you've won a big victory, your puny dicks hard for the first time in YEARS to something other than your shameful stash of Blacked.com porn.

Listen to me, and listen good:

Holy SHIT.

You have no idea the HELL that's coming.

We will not forget this.

We will camp out at the polls and scream bloody murder when old white people get close enough to cast their ballots.

We will get our Big Blue Wave and it will fucking drown you.

We will start impeaching damn near everything. And I mean EVERYTHING.

Every Jesusfreak. Every libertarian. Every mealy-mouthed cunt like Jeff Flake who pretends to be decent and then becomes a fly by night rape apologist when it's time to fucking count.

We will fuck shit up. ALL the shitty stupid shit White America cherishes.

We will set it on fire and spit and shit and piss on it in front of you.

And then we will go full Stalin and throw every sexist freak with social anxiety into a literal dungeon if they've ever so much as posted the word "roastie" online.

I'm not fucking kidding.

You...you think this bomber fuckshit is only making skinhead assholes more radical and racist? Fuck you.

Seriously, FUCK YOU.

It is making every single Democrat under 35 have a burning, killer urge to go full Stalin on all your asses.

It is making us hate the First Amendment a thousand times more than the Second.

We will take your guns. We will gag your speech. We will kick your balls. We will unironically use your fat white heteronormie white asses as fucking footrests for pink haired commissars with hella cool frames, and then we'll make sure every new white boy shit into this world gets a prescription for estrogen as soon as they're a month old.

Fuck.

Everything.

White people were still in charge

Especially in big culture centers like LA. Then the 90s riots and gangsta rap happened.

Everything was whiter, some problems were easier to ignore.

*so not some

Not disagreeing with your other points but California was a purple state since the 60's

>Thinking cocaine is degeneracy...

okay fagit

And Pete Wilson was the governor in the 90s. Clinton and the 9th Circuit Court killed Prop 187 which was the death knell.

Degeneracy was pretty damn mainstream in the 80s. I didn't mind it at all though because it was hetreosexual degeneracy which was prized. You couldn't see a movie those days without some big titty monster getting naked for no reason during the movie. I hate the modern era, because it's all about gay men & trannys now. I recall back in the 80s & even the 90s, childrens' cartoons had shapely curvy women like the X-men cartoon. I don't ever see that anymore. Girls aren't allowed to actually look feminine these days.

Because Liberals were put in check and we didn't have the fucking Internet. We had fun and went OUTSIDE.

Wonder what else happened around that time also.

The mexicans started flooding, but they weren't voting. The whiteoids need to admit they ruined California, the negroes and mexicans are just symptoms.

because the west was building what today is the public debt

Heh you're probably at least partially correct. Fuck Californians.

Nobody gives a shit about niggers nigging. Fuck the inner cities I hope everyone there dies in some sort of epidemic

Father grew up in Southern California in the 70's, he says it was heaven-like. Never forget what they took from you.

Pete Wilson appealed the case but he had to leave office before the time came and his successor, Gray Davis revoked the appeal.
Davis was the one who sealed California's fate

Spandex.

Kill yourself, neoliberal.

>A decade more degenerate than the 70's

Why did he (or you) move to Austria? Or are you just there temporarily?

Wrong. Mexicans hardly existed in the 80s. They came here around the mid 1990s. I barely knew Mexicans as a kid and I grew up in L.A.

Pretty sure that with Prop 187 the state could have been saved. Fuck the judicial system.

Pretty sure that the valley was infested with mexicans since the 60's Ask people from San Fernando.

It would've made living in California impossible for the illegals if it did pass. Unfortunately the (((ACLU))) stepped in and sued the state and (((Pfaelzer))) struck Prop 187 down, who would've guessed its the kikes that ruin everything

because there were so many white people

>66.6%
THE DEVIL WENT DOWN TO CALIFORNIA

But yeah after NAFTA obliterated the Mexican agricultural economy more people went into California.

They were in small pockets. Local neighborhoods. California was Whites, Asians, and Blacks.

Did not know the ACLU was involved. God I hate those kikes. And to think they once defended literal Nazis.

you missed affordable home computers for the first time ever.

Yeah. 1993 was when the Mexicans invaded. Since then it's been nonstop. You look at all my childhood yearbooks though, class photos, Mexicans or "Hispanics" were like 5%

Because all the photos were shot on film.

The midwest got fucking raped.

its all so tiresome. We failed to keep the most beautiful state. Last time I was in Costa Mesa I got so black pilled. Same thing with San Diego. Well RIP.

Costa Mesa and San Diego were all WHITE. San Diego was literally like a paradise.

Yeah I've heard that about most southern California. Fucking kikes. Fuck Ted Kennedy

That includes hispanics, subtract about 20 from the national average, that's how many whites there are

>> people seem friendlier and more open

Yep. We were. And 'race' shit was talked about but not everywhere you went

>> there was degeneracy but it seemed a lot more fun and white friendly

And it wasn't freaky shit like now. We didn't sexualize teens and kids.

>> radio actually played rock and not rap and country every station and the top 40 was worth listening to


Pretty much. But rap was still pretty big

Iowafag here, farm crisis was a rough one.

I've witnessed my home (CA) go from a paradise to absolute shit, in my lifetime. It's depressing. Threads like this just remind me what was lost.

No, I made this map using the "Not of Spanish or Hispanic origin" category.

Thanks Frenchie

Lived in Fresno California, beautiful city. There were already spics here but not in big numbers. It wasnt until 1990 that they were growing in huge numbers, they breed like rabbits. A ton of protests about Prop 187 took place in this city, I'm never going back. It's lost like all the other beautiful cities in Cali to the illegal brown hordes

At worst they had a fancy wrist watch which had a calculator, or a portable game.

Fresno turned into one of the biggest shitholes ever. Jesus.

Yeah, the Casio, I had one.

Great. Man, the cartoons, the music, the president. We could have it again, you know.

The problems of suburban sprawl weren't very bad in the 80s so it was easily possible to live with little to no contact with the crime plagued inner cities. Of course that was just a temporary situation as eventually the sins of suburban sprawl caught up with us and then gentrification of the inner city pushed criminals to the suburbs making the situation even worse. In the 80s though suburban life was comfy. (Sterling Heights, represent)
Reagan should not have been president if he didn't understand the Democrats would fail to keep their promises.

Somewhere between Pennsylvania to Wisconsin would be good

>Democrats fail to keep their promises
What, they gave him the DLC, which is all he and his idol Hayek could have ever wanted.

You do know Regan could never win a Republican primary in this day and age. He'd be so much of a centrist that he could almost be a Democrat.

Fake and gay.

Dude... Most of the "crime plagued" inner cities weren't even as "crime plagued" as they made it out to be unless it was NYC, Baltimore, Chicago, or LA.

I grew up in Detroit, just south of 8 mile on the west side. It took until 1991 before there was a crime committed in my neighborhood (a bunch of cars got broken into one night and the radios were stolen, including mine). No crack sales, no hookers wandering around. If you wanted to see that you had to go up to 8 mile and head east past Woodward and you might have seen one or two random hookers at 1-2am, but you really had to go past I-75 on 8 mile to see a lot of them. If you wanted to see dope dealers and baseheads you had to hit up Highaland Park or go deep over by Warren Ave and I-96 or over by Tiger Stadium late at night.

most "inner cities" weren't anywhere as bad as they were made out to be.

i actually own two 1980s home computers. theyre awesome. no brainlet could even turn one on.

yeaaaaaaaaaaah, but having lived through it all including bomb drills, etc I gotta say that the 80's were actually comfy as fuck.

Back then I was into programming and electronics hardcore and loved every minute of it 'cause there were NO normies. Going to meetings for the local Atari user groups were full of people like me. We spoke face-to-face and gave each other tips on how to do whatever we were trying to accomplish.

I had a TS1000 and an Atari 800XL back then, and got an Atari 520ST around '87. I spent my allowances and burger flipping money at Radio Shack buying all manner of components, and buying Compute!, Antic, Analog, and Radio Electronics magazines. I had an etching tank and breadboards all over the place. Shit was cash.

I had a Vectrex, Atari VCS (6 switches w/wood grain), and an NES along with the fuckton of games I had for my computers. We had a basketball rim on the garage with no HOA fucking with us about it. I rode my BMX bike all over the place until I got my first car ('81 Escort bitchez!!!). Back then gas was 89 cents a gallon, 79 cents if you slummed it and bought 86 octane from Sunoco. I made $3.50/hr flipping burgers in high school 20 hrs a week, enough to feed my electronics and computing habit, buy new sneakers every few months, and cop the latest hip hop and techno records on Tuesdays.

Yeah bruh, the 80's was comfy as fuck, and I ain't even gettin into all the details.

Attached: Atari_800XL.jpg (900x529, 55K)

I wanted one of those soooooooooooooo badly but I at the time I already had an Atari 800XL and a heavily customized Timex Sinclair 1000. No way my parents were gonna get me one of those when I, personally, already had two computers at a time when most households didn't even have one, let alone have one in the sole possession of their son and not for the family.
