I fucking love milkshakes. started drinking them regularly recently. just milk and whatever fruit I have lying around. love banana and strawberry, but a lot of tropical fruits work well. mango, papaya. good stuff
don't even need to add any sugary shit. I love chocolate and vanilla and peanut butter milkshakes, but I'm honestly fine with just the fruit on a regular basis
>Wasn’t it actually alcohol?
sure, in egypt and mesopotamia it was probably what fueled their entire civilizations
alchool is great for cattle
lots of energy, clean hydration, numbs their brain to the pain and misery of being virtually slaves
not sure milkshakes would work for those people, due to their intolerance to lactose
I suppose milk fueled european civilization, on the other hand. feels good to be lactose tolerant, man

You think this thread also proves the idea of 50s people being turbo-repressed dorks? That's a lot of people being killed and cheating on their S/O because of having to cork up their inner chimpanzee until it finally couldn't be corked up any longer.

This usage of the word "repressed" as a way to discredit people is quite suss and modernitypilled.
If you have bad desires you should repress them. Ideally you "suppress" them and "sublimate" them. But repression is the first stage.

You definitely don't "express yourself" or "speak your truth" or whatever you think the 60s was about. Because that leads to the 70s, 80s, and 90s. I.E. serial killers, AIDS, and passive aggression. Yes, all equally bad. You are an evil creature like John Wayne Gacy for sipping tea with a prideful expression.

This guy is also repressed, but he doesnt realize it. He'll accuse everyone else of being repressed for not indulging their inner toddler - but when will he indulge his inner grown man?
Both of these paths are necessary to take on the way to maturity but most people who say this "everyone's on their own journey" bullshit only want to defend the fun and easy stuff and they cry about "repression" as if they have pristine, kind souls.

Remember folks, if you don't talk about the bad stuff it doesn't exist. This is basically the social equivalent of trying to hide the mess so that your Facebook selfie makes you look psychologically healthy when in reality you're on the verge of a breakdown 24/7.

Again, this is the patented avoidant response.
Theres a place between "letting it all hang out" (Which you dont actually do. Youre passive aggressive.) And never ever discussing your dark side (Which you're guilty of in 2025, not 1950. Your "dark side" just happens to be chaste and disciplined adulthood where in the 50s it was being a wild angry slut.)

The first thing everyone learns to do in response to their dark impulses (for you that might be saying the n-word, or slut-shaming)(you'll never admit to this because you're repressed) - is...repress them.
It's how you put your problems in cryo-stasis until you're grown up enough to experience those feelings voluntarily and wield them productively.

Define "Drink of Choice" because that sounds pretty broad and very easy to generalize to be honest
You might as well make the argument that Coca-Cola was America's "Drink of Choice" as it's a prime symbol of Americanism and was and still is a popular drink in the US and around the world, and Coca-Cola is actually about as old as Milkshakes are (both were invented in the mid-1880s) so I honeslty believe Coke has more legitimacy to this title than anything else

Naw, that's just the Chud version of the 1950s. In reality, all the cool kids in those days were Beatniks and Greasers that hung out in places like Greenwich Village smoking pot and getting high on Obertrol (Apmphetamines). The truth is that the 50s actually were not that remarkable compared to other decades, midwits just love romanticising it as some "golden age of America" while ignoring shit like the Eisenhower Recession. It's just simple Golden Age Fallacy

It had counter-culture this is true but the sense of "social cohesion" if you'll excuse the buzzword was necessarily higher than it is today.
We dont have "counter-" culture today because there's nothing to counter. 50% white and 100% individualist is not the same scenario as 90% white and 100% american.

There were race riots in the 1950s. I'm not saying it's wholly bad or good. I'm calling you a historically illiterate retard for generalizing a decade to fit your modern narrarative. You're doing the 50s a disservice actually by making everyone out to be completely soulless and incapable of independent thought. "Social Cohesion" lmao

The Ford Edsel was and still is considered one of the biggest automotive flops of all time, with losses estimated to be between $4 billion and $5 billion, and its failure was partially blamed on the late 1950s Eisenhower Recession. The term "Edsel" for many, many decades afterwards became synonymous with marketing failures

The US economy sunk into a recession in the fall of 1957 partially due to an overly tight monetary policy. The initial wave was over by summer '58 but a renewed recession began in the spring of 1960 and it was a significant factor in the '60 presidential election.

Still, funny how people were happy and entertained by centuries of accumulated western culture, then, for no reason at all, in the space of years suddenly people had to smoke weed and meth and pretend to like shitty music to be happy. It is almost as though the "corrupting the youth" thing was actually true and boomers became the first generation brainwashed from infancy by mass media.

The primary active ingredient of Obertrol was Amphetamines, people at the time often abused the pill, where it was called "Obertrolling"

You aren't countering his point at all. He's conceding the counterculture of the 50s as a condition of civilizational decline, which had already begun.
He's not the one idolizing the decade - you are. Only for you it's a kind of anti-idol. An image of the devil for you to project all your irrational hatred onto.

You're swept up by an anti-fantasy every bit as focused on the commercial culture of the era.

And yet you're going to have to. It's ridiculous not to notice any trends in history as if each passing decade is purely neutral, because god forbid you get a statistic wrong.

I notice its really common for this generation to hedge their value judgements on everything because theyre afraid they'll get a twitter response correcting them. And then they'll be "outed" permanently as a bully, or presumptuous, or emotionally unintelligent.Or god forbid, "insecure" or "repressed".
It isn't the conservative 50s that instilled this paranoid self censorship.

Now its turning and people are acting like jackasses again because our celebrities started saying "retard" on tv..
And online, instead of decrying everything as "racist" were getting "thats jewish". Horray for us.
