For varying definitions of "everyone"...
I don't think there was anybody in the 1950s who was much worse off than they were in the 1930s. Yes, it took a while for women, non-whites, non-straights, etc. to get their full rights. But, even with fewer rights than a married white christian man, things were improving for them too. But, obviously, there's a reason that the MAGA theme resonates much more with old straight white men than it does with anybody else.
