I think it’s more like there were places in the US where it was fine for some people, and those bubbles are getting cracked by the constant Trump bullshit.
Maybe between the 40s and the 60s the US was the best place to be comparatively, but that was mostly because we managed to burn and bomb literally everything else.

The 50s and 60s was a peak time for middle class white men in the US.
I’m not saying that the 40s-60s was the best time to live in the US, I’m saying that the other way around, in the 40s-60s the US was the best place to live in.
So yeah, for example Asian women might have had real problems, even get put into internment camps in the US, but at least they weren’t mass raped like on the Eastern European or Asian fronts.
Yeah it’s the bubbles we all live in. When I was a kid in the 80s everything felt great. Skateboarding was big, bmx. Years later I realized a field 2 miles from my house was s dumping ground for a serial killer at that time. The US was a fucking shit hole then… and all decades before that. It’s still a shithole but I feel like its peak was 2015. Gay marriage had just been legalized. Crime at a relative low. Previous shittyness getting exposed at a high rate. Trump was nearly a forgotten figure.

So that’s a load bearing comparatively.

And massively profit from WW2 loans and rebuilding while their competition Japan and Europe got destroyed and reduced to vasals.
