Presenting the past as a pastoral idyll and neglecting to mention the negative aspects is both disingenuous and political. It's an appeal to traditionalism and regression. How were women and minorities treated in this golden age?

I don't think that was the intention of the tweet though. Not in a "let's go back to 1875, where we lived to be 45, and every third kid we had died before they were 4, and women had no rights".

I think it was more to say how there was a much more sense of family and community, combined with truly being rewarded based off of how much effort you put in and not some corporate formula of what some faceless company feel you are "worth".
