The God Delusion

Why do I find 1940s/50s American city aesthetics so comfy? It's nostalgia for something I've never experienced

look at all of the circles, curves, and lack of hard edges in the picture. You can see it in the cars, the lamp posts, even the street lights and advertisements, there was always a touch of beauty in everything. The building in the background says "buy war bonds" so this was probably between 1942 and 1945. While not in this picture, you know from history that men often wore suits and women wore dresses or at least skirts and blouses. There is a perceived air of professionalism; that people knew what they were doing meanwhile a 30 year old man today is more likely to wear the same jeans and tee shirt combination every day that he did when he was 10. We see someone that we can look up to in those old photos where people were at the same time "grown up" and lovers of the beautiful.

I think people generally pine for their nation's perceived Golden Age.

The British idolise for the late 19th century, as it represents their zenith, as a society.

For America, the Post-War industrialisation period represents an extremely positive change to their national identity. Self sufficiency and family values reigned supreme. Wars were righteous and the Soviets weren't yet capable of threatening American shores.

Also, I'm pretty sure that's not actually Russian, but a related language. Never seen that Greek letter after the "Kak".

Its a cyrillic P user. Need to do some more studying...

Really? I thought uppercase Cyrillic P looked like this "П". I haven't seen a serif version of it, I guess.

Sure, but that's just the style of that font. Cyrillic cursive is very hard to read.

No more than Latin cursive. Just a matter of memorizing a couple of different glyphs.

That is actually completely correct. Notation ambiguity is usually resolved by always using fractions instead of division operator in academia.

>le everyone knows
Not an argument, cretin. Cyrillic cursive is in no way harder than Latin cursive, just slightly different. This is indeed known by absolutely everyone who is able to read both and doesn't just autistically parrot leddit-tier maymay opinions from duolingo forums.
