I dont think 50 years ago, or any time, was the golden age. In fact it might have been worse. Its just that now every single local atrocity gets amplified nationwide by social media. Watch your media diet, people.

it's true. people forget a lot of stuff was just swept under the rug in the 'good ol' days' and of course people weren't bombarded with a 24/7 news cycle.

My wife has family stories of children getting sold...and we're only in our 40s.

As has been said, the frequency of these events MAY be going down but the severity? Well sadly, there are still some very unwell people in society who are not getting the support and help they need.
