This is a sea-change as it is not about one set of conventions replacing another; it is the near-absence of norms from our culture. In the past, norms were expressed to ensure decorum and civility among people. It also demonstrated respect and appreciation for others or for places of hospitality.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-6-long d-flex justify-content-center\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center; \" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-780318798\">\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-1379703300879-0\" class=\"mb-30\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-70526e527d4686dce07b467473d85ad2 fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-2\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-70526e527d4686dce07b467473d85ad2\"><\/div>\n<p>Since the late 1960s, there has been a loosening of societal norms leading to the creation of a distinction between elite society and &#8220;the masses.&#8221; In affluent neighborhoods, the heavily tattooed, the eyebrow-studded, the inarticulate, and the badly dressed are identified by the local residents and staff as &#8220;not belonging.&#8221; This phenomenon demonstrates that the jettisoning of standards has resulted in the creation of a quasi-caste system in which opportunities for the underclass are limited by language, behavior, and physical appearance.<\/p>\n<p>The abandonment of standards has not been imposed from above. It is a cultural spin-off of the wider anti-establishmentarianism of the late 1960s. However, being non-judgmental, or &#8220;nice,&#8221; equates to the acceptance of all forms of fashion, art, music, personal identity, and language, which has resulted in a coarser, more unattractive, and more confrontational culture than before.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For Baby Boomers, this famous quote, attributed to Joan Collins, humorously captures a change many of them have observed in American society during their lifetimes: \u201cGrandmother used to take my mother to the circus to see the fat lady and the tattooed man \u2014 now they\u2019re everywhere.\u201d The reality behind the quote is that over<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1875,"featured_media":1901143,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[546],"tags":[7947,5071,4439,18183,10500,5127],"class_list":["post-1901142","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-federalist","tag-ditching","tag-failure","tag-freedom","tag-guarantees","tag-norms","tag-social"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1901142","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1875"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1901142"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1901142\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1901143"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1901142"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1901142"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1901142"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
