It just blows my mind that people look back a time like the 1950s where married couples on TV had to sleep in separate twin beds and the House Un-American Activities Committee was a thing and think "People today get so easily offended."

Since the Times is committed to challenging conventional wisdom, I'm sure they'll pay you to write an op-ed advocating for this position.
