You were a kid and your parents hid all the scary stuff from you.
Ron Rule is an Amerifat, He was 17 in 1996 (Sauce: https://www.quora.com/What-was-Ron-Rules-path-to-success ). Housing prices don't matter when you live with your parents. His next housing was probably for university, in which case it would typically be a shared flat (so rent is split 4-5 ways) or dorm room (which I think are normally overpriced in the US but which people see as part of tuition rather than breaking it out as its own line item).
He apparently didn't watch American cartoons much as a kid, or was really fucking oblivious. Entertainment in the 1990s was ABSOLUTELY laced with agendas there. Pic related.
>nobody cared about race
Lots of people cared. Remember Rodney King? Mulugeta Seraw? The Order? Oklahoma City?
>wealth aspired to rather than scoffed at
I think that's more a mark of his own changing social circle. When you're 17 and trying to convince people to buy ads on the backs of receipts, nobody's scoffing at your wealth because you don't HAVE any wealth to scoff at. you want money and so do your friends. When you're 30 and trying to impress chicks with the fact that you are the CEO of As Seen On TV Inc, people absolutely scoff at you.
>divisive politics
Politics doesn't look divisive if you're a kid who's ignoring it to focus on business.
>life was affordable
That's a genuine change. The 1990s housing bubble fucked Americans hard. Making student loans non-dischargable in bankruptcy also fucked them (no reason NOT to loan a student $200K for gender studies or OS/2 database engineering if they'll be paying it back forever!). Repealing Glass-Steagall fucked them. And, of course, the creeping wealth inequality from the Reagan tax cuts fucked them. Because, you see, rich people aren't going to buy that many more LIMES than normies... but HOUSES? Houses are an INVESTMENT.
