Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Well said, extremely on point. I'm just curious about your view on the timeframe - you'd say this started in the 40s or earlier? In my mind it was more around the 60s, together with the rise of neoliberalism

To be honest, I just threw a number out there without bothering to do the math... I guess I was thinking post-WW2, but yeah it could have been slightly later.
