If someone from the 1950s suddenly appeared, what would be the most difficult thing to explain about life today?

I presume you're not talking about Russia? You're going to have a hard time showing them those Nazis.

A person from 1950s will just be super confused when you say it because they're going to ask you what country is Nazi. If you say the US they'll just be confused further.

"Who are these nazis"

"Anyone that doesn't have the same political beliefs as me!"

"...I see"

This denial is worse than any vulgar insult.

We're talking about violent bigots. People responsible for mob violence against democracy, and state violence against women and minorities. Stop fucking pretending we 'just don't like it' when you try to make us less than human.
