Sounds like nostalgia for a past that never was to me. Like a presidential slogan even.

Not sure how you could think that the ongoing Boeing situation or the way of the New West has to do with nostalgia of the past.

If you mean that focusing on the truly important things is about nostalgia, so be it.

No, the notion that the culture shift at Boeing is an indication of general "western decline" and that such things didn't happen 20-50 years ago, and that we just need to rid ourselves of bad influences (like the person above me getting upset about DEI, despite no link to current issues as Boeing) to become great again.

Incidentally, this is a popular narrative in fascist regimes.

I get the feeling you misunderstood my point.
