iamateenagefeminist: Yes! This! I hate hate hate when people talk about the “good old days”. I’m always like “oh, you mean the days when the only people who had rights were straight white cis-men? No thanks.” Those are not called the “good old days” those are called “when everything sucked days”. Yeah, I always say that “the good old days” in America is a concept made up by white people (mainly white cis men), cause there are no good old days for anyone else.
