Do you really think everyone in the 50s was in stem, supported the space program, and innvoates? It's always a minority. They were bombing soldiers, us soldiers with nuclear weapons saying it was harmless to see the effects. Is it sad we don't do that anymore? Just because you watch TV and have a bad Facebook feed doesn't make it America
