Why do some people want to go back to the 1950’s? (lemmings.world)

As a queer person (agender) with a conservative dad, I don’t get why he says he wants to go back to the 1950s. What was so special back then besides his reasoning that times were simpler? I feel like it would be harder for me then as a queer person.

You could beat your wife, she couldn't really divorce you, and couldn't open a bank account. That's usually why they love the 50s.
