Jennifer Welch claims that people who are nostalgic for the past are often simply missing a time when they could behave badly without being held accountable.

“And I've been thinking about this a lot and I don't think it's necessarily that the old days were better I just think if you were a dick in the old days you were less likely to be called out for it”

Angie Sullivan agrees that nostalgic people are often misremembering the past to avoid being held accountable for their poor behavior.

“100% agree now people with their sexism their racism their homophobia be uh being religious nuts they get called out for it right that's what they don't like sure”
