If he was frozen at the very end of the 60s he spent 28 years frozen and was defrosted in 1997… which was 28 years ago this year.
Want to get a hint of what Austin went through being defrosted, go check out how poorly some of those jokes aged.

Mike Myers was ahead of his time and very progressive. Those jokes aged pretty well. Even the “shes a man, baby” ones. Because they weren’t about trans people, but at most transvestites. Which are still men and still identify as such.
He wouldn’t make a joke like that about trans people who actually transitioned. Since he would consider those the sex they transitioned to.
The character of Austin would also be excited when he would learn about bisexuality since he would be able to fuck both males and females at the same time.
Austin is an ally, and a big one at that. Especially at the time.
But would studios still greenlight the script?
Its still a great movie and no I dont think Mike Meyers would intentionally write hurtful material, I just think some of the jokes definitely hit differently now.
except for the love guru… ehhhhh finger guns
