Actually America was referred to as Camelot in the 60s

No, it wasn't. The Kennedy Administration was referred to as "Camelot".

"Camelot was first publicly used by Jackie in a Life magazine interview, after she invited the journalist Theodore H. White to the White House just days after the assassination. White was best known for his Making of a President series about Kennedy’s election.

In the interview, Jackie referred to the Broadway musical, Camelot, which Kennedy apparently listened to often. The musical had been written by his Harvard schoolmate Alan Jay. Jackie quoted the ending lines of the final song:

“Don’t let it be forgot, that once there was a spot, for one brief, shining moment that was known as Camelot. There’ll be great presidents again… but there will never be another Camelot.”

strengthens my point



No, it strengthens my point that some shite is based purely on fantasy and has no basis in reality. The 50s and 60s were FILLED with civil strife, not to mention Cold War hysteria. These allusions to fantasy were just designed to steer Americans' attention away from the problems of the day. The worse the problems, the more idyllic the fantasies must be to provide the diversion.
