Seems like it just wouldn’t have been feasible
Hypothetical: covid19 occurs in the year 1971

People would have realised just how many employees really are nonessential.

Nobody would have heard of coronavirus.

People wouldn’t have been bombarded with fake news and the social media opinions from everyone they had ever met. Most wouldn’t have realized it was even happening.

Yep, people didn't hear about all of those other pre-internet pandemics and endemics, right?

There was a pandemic the same year as Woodstock
People didn’t care
Do you think people would have given a shite about covid in the year 1454?

I wouldn't have to sit here and watch half of you melt and bitch about having to wear one.

"What happens?"
Many people would die.

If you thought you already had the answer, couldn’t you have just had this dialogue in your head and spared us from the incessant whining? Or could you at least stay on the poli board?

How would people even know it was happening without the internet?
Posted on 7/15/20 at 7:55 pm to HailHailtoMichigan!
People would go to work and wear masks, and not complain, and not use the pandemic as a reason to riot and loot.

A bunch of women who failed high school biology and never went to college wouldn’t have been writing manifestos on Facebook that get shared 200k times and believed over what actual experts are saying
