The biggest difference is that Western Civilization is in a deep decline right now. It was already falling in the 80s, but its further down the sewer now than it was then.
Most everyone who lived in the 60s and 70s can remember a time when, at least in most cities and towns, we had a "high trust" society. People could leave their doors unlocked. Kids could play outside. You could let people pump their gas and pay afterward. All kinds of stuff that only happens under certain sociological conditions.
None of that exists anymore in the U.S. None of it will ever exist again until this version of our civilization bottoms out and a new one begins.

Most everyone who lived in those times can also remember times when "separate but equal" was the law of the land and the world was literally at war. Ijs.
