Stephen, a hint: when real men realise they have ridiculed someone

Do you suffer from some version of, as my friend used to say, "post

Actually, I'm one of those unlucky suckers who lived through the 60s and
remembers it. It's a curse I tell ya, a curse.

   Sorry to hear that!  Although extremely hit or miss I'm sure, and I
   would have been in the wrong part of the country, there were some
   experiences to be jealous of.  But plenty more that sucked too.  Pain
   we had to go through.

So much revisionism. The media-driven Funhouse Mirror effect Roszak
described worked quite well at shaping people's perception, even people
who experienced it directly. It was crude then. They have much more
sophisticated methods today

   Seems like some of that repackaging and deflection has been uncovered.
   Too bad it took so long.  So much turmoil, so much confusion.  A lot of
   progress was made, but often fell short.  We're still having echos, and
   they are, in many ways, finally winning over all of the waves of
   resistance.
