I never understood how abortion could have been legalized when the “Greatest Generation” was running the show, or for that matter why they did not stop the cultural revolution of the 60’s dead in its tracks.
War weariness, perhaps? Fighting wars can entail a lot of moral compromises.
I never understood how there wasn’t one state that stood up over it. There was really never any real resistance on any sort of scale. Folks around here wondered why there wasn’t one state to really fight ‘gay marriage’ but if not one resisted over abortion, how likely was it that they would over that?

I think the cultural revolution was due in part at least to, what some money minded liberal overpaid Ted Baxter type called, the “greatest generation’s” prevalence of PTS. People ask all the time, why do other war vets not have PTS? The answer is they did. The first baby formula using parents had kids one after the other, believing advertising, not making decisions, without the natural spacing breast feeding provides them the women drank and more than previous generations, many of the fathers were zoned out with PTS the kids were numerous and closely spaced. Brokaw didn’t talk about the parenting.
The kids were so numerous and in suburbia, we sort of took over. That’s at least a part of it.
Trump is a first round baby boomer, btw, born in 1946. It’s fitting that he should usher out the stuck in the sixties group.
