I Miss The Way Things Used To Be

I miss the times when you could read or watch news without the feeling you are lied all the time ( at least they cared not to lie too blatantly).

I miss the times when quality is what mattered in a movie, not how many female/black/LGBT chatacters appear.

I miss the times when people were on tv because they were famous, not the other way around.

I miss the times when crowds were a nuisance but not a source of fear

I miss the times when nostalgia did nor have its roots in the lack of common sense.

Thank you for your concern, Nik. I know that nostalgia may be dangerous, and do not want to be blind thinking the past was better than it really is. It is the last sentence in my post, the lack of common sense what I really miss.
Others may say that these times are more commonsensical than past ones. It is their opinion and I respect it.
