Yet they couldn't say "No, to hell with that I'm not going to the air-raid shelter. You won't trample on my freedumb. I choose to remain and not comply - what's that whistling sound....?"

The nice thing about the Blitz (other than dead English) was that it was one of the first times a city had ever been bombed so there were all these theories about how people were gonna lose their **** and society was gonna collapse in panic, but it turned out everyone was actually up for the challenge and mental health generally imprived because people who'd been a modern meaningless society all of a sudden had a purpose and something to unite them.
Whereas now it's just kinda wear a mask, don't go outside, and get a shot ... you know, if you want.
