The typical romanticizing of the 80s is itself a sort of pro-capitalist propaganda. It often conceals harsh realities of the 80s like deindustrialization, the AIDs crisis, CIA death squads, the crack epidemic, the gutting of social safety nets and so on in favor of nostalgia for gimmicky products and pop culture that was at the time often a mouth piece for US imperialism.
