Can’t wait for the day when colorized pictures become the norm and more people realize that 100 years wasn’t that long ago and that the main difference is the speed of communication, the quality of the medical system, the fact that rural areas have the quality of life city folk have and the fashion. Ofc some social issues have advanced considerably, but it’s roughly still the same themes and topics.
Are you a doctor in some rural ditch that really likes fashion or something? Otherwise I don’t see how that’s “everything”. The daily life of your average western person wasn’t too different in the 1920s, nor were their political opinions. The main point I wanted to make is that we still generally talk and care about the same issues. If we weren’t addicted to scrolling social media and were esthetically blind, most of us wouldn’t immediately realize it if we were transported back in time.

I don’t know about that. We didn’t even have a public radio station in the US until 1920. Television didn’t come around until 1925. Frozen food in 1929.
The simple act of driving to the store to get shopping done for dinner would be quite different.
Oh right, forgot about America… Imagine bulldozing your entire city just so you can live the American dream of driving for basic necessities.
Also I don’t watch TV or listen to radio. Many people don’t. I generally don’t buy frozen goods either, I can just grab anything I want fresh from the store, it’s literally down the street (Or have it delivered, like what my gf does, tho that’s definitely a modern luxury). I usually just grab some meat and cream on my way from work.
My daily lifestyle outside of work as a developer doesn’t differ too much from my great grandparents.

So what you are saying is "everything is different "
