Were people actually more “agreeable” back in the day, was it a result of politics/regime differences then or are they actually more agreeable now?

For some things as a whole, society was less agreeable back then (gays, perhaps women in positions of power etc…)

But for the same situations now (such as neighborly disputes, fights in between people etc…) were people more agreeable back then because it was a generational thing, because of politics/regime from back then or were they not as agreeable/tolerant as they are now for the same things?
