      Seems to be a recent trend.
      With the decline in western culture, people are giving up on the 21st century and only watching stuff from the 20th century.
      They're called bunkhouse people or "BUNKERS".

    At 21:10 so much half-truth in that seemingly amazing ad. It says the robot-made dishwasher was made in the most advanced dishwasher plant in the world. Truth: the factory was built in the 1950s, but rapidly retooled with robots, using the recession of 1982 while the workers were absent. The robot method's advent meant workers at that plant lost hundreds of jobs in the next few months and years. It was the first step in GE "Neutron Jack" Welch's policy of ending opportunities and turning cities into rust belts. But the ad frames this as the hope of the future. Never believe a corporate image ad.
