I wonder how a neo-Amish type community where they don't use any technology past 1990 would do?

Loved the 80s and tell my kids about it often.
Unified country, no SJW shite pushed down our throats to divide us, pop culture wasn't talentless trash, athletes weren't overpaid assholes yet, and our media wasn't bending over backwards to lie to us nightly. We actually sat down for dinner, talked to each other, and hung out together.
I miss it a lot and wish my kids could have experienced it.

How does one go back to the 80s?

With the right humidity, my wife’s hair goes back to the 80s. I like it.

I’m right there with you - born in 71. The 80s in Dallas were awesome for all the reasons you mentioned.

Turned 12 in 1980. Middle school, high school and college. Perfection.

That virtual reality keeps getting perfected there may indeed be some who go back to the 80s and never return.
Not sure what we’ll do with the still living physical bodies they inhabit that will otherwise be useless in the here and now.

Man, AI is getting better and better at this.
It even got the hands mostly right.

I still have my Ray-Bans and case from the mid 80s.
Someone posted a Delorean, more time has passed since the movie came out than how far they went back to the 50s :(

Neo-Amish sounds funny and paradoxical... Initially, your post gave me a mashup vision of an Amish man crossed with a health bro on Twitter trying to go paleo / trad... as if Jebediah, after reviewing his gratitude journal, might take an ice bath and sun his perineum at dawn for infrared maxxing, becore starting his proper chores.
But your post sent me down a rabbit hole this morning and I guess neo-Amish is a legit term for people who eschew technology. And I ended up reading a semi-interesting story about a student who aspires to be a monk starting a neo-Amish club at Yale...
Yale school paper i think
Of course, most of these Yalies are "tourists" (like how Edward Norton paints Marla as a tourist of other people's pain in Fight Club) but that's a topic for another thread.

Pretty ironic to have AI tell me “The world feels more real here”
Posted on 8/23/25 at 11:57 am to TrueTiger
We are the last people alive to have experienced that world. Everyone after us will think its always been “this way”
