The masks really helped keep the death rate down…
It killed 675,000k I guess
masks didn’t work then either.
Wow, this pic’s really brought out the whack jobs……
To be fair Spanish flu actually killed people
The folk back in the day were more appreciated of the science.
And back then men also felt it was their duty to defend their country in the military. Now they can’t even wear a mask to protect themselves. The same people who don’t wear masks now are the same ones who voted against the “burn pit” legislation for veterans.
“We’ve never had to wear masks before” and “there’s never been a vaccine mandate in the history of this country” -fucking idiots
Back then people could say racist things like Spanish Flu or China Virus.
Yep, Because that’s true Americans looking out for their neighbors
When folks blindly trusted the government, sheep or smart?

What about their rights?
And the masks and medical malfeasance killed them just the same as what transpired over the past two years.
I’ve seen this before, it’s sad that wild west cowboys and pilgrims had better sense than us today. Yet, I can still see at least 3 unmasked people in the picture.
people denied masks back them because they didnt realized how bad the flu was they didnt have technology like today, seeing the amount of dead people in internet videos they would use mask.
See what’s the point? all the people in the picture are dead now anyway
