    I wish I was born in a time when people could just enjoy shit.

    It seems like mindless TV with action, some good old boys and some eye candy, set in the south.

    People make out it is some sort of factually wrong documentary.

      Say what you will about stupid people, but I have to tell you this: I’ve had more than a few people tell me they did not wear seat belts because “the Dukes never wore seat belts”

      I am not even fucking kidding about this. It’s not just about people today treating this TV show like it was a depiction of reality, it’s about people at the time doing the exact same thing.

      As I’ve seen it said many times on Lemmy for many nostalgia moments and am also quite surprised no one said to to you yet (they probably got tired of repeating it…), people yearning for the good old times are the privileged white patriarchy class.

      Be ashamed, be very ashamed. Tsk. Tsk.
