I mean, the american dream was always a lie.
Perhaps in the 1950s maybe you could have had it as it was sold to you... as long as you were white, straight, and otherwise toeing the perfectly-normal-nothing-to-see-here line.
But beyond a very, very short period of privilege, it's always been bullshit.
It was called the American Dream because you had to be asleep to believe it.
