Why did nobody get anxiety in Billy the Kid's era?

The Chinese had opium fool

There was far less population then and the mentally ill were institutionalized in insane asylums. Today all but the worst mentally ill walk amongst us.

Men were reported to be so timid they were barely men. Read period accounts. War was to get incels out of the house.

electronic communications, EM waves and stuff. The (fake all along) news.

You lived to witness that? No way.

Billy the Kid: November 23, 1859 – July 14, 1881

Decent hospice program. Mother Theresa's study showed that just giving them a bed was enough to get them to lie down and die out of sight of the people who don't need to know how many people are dying. No need to medicate them.

No opium for you, dying masses of our great leap backward. No CBD either. Just listen to music and imagine you are not in pain, that is good enough for us lazy bastards, eh?

Or "touched"

Of course today that has an entirely different connotation that I'm sure also comes with anxiety.

Turing your face to the wall, refusing to get out of bed and starving to death was common. My great aunt did it because of the hereditary chronic pancreatitis. I feel so sorry for her with my modern medicine and marijuana. Ofen I feel that I am having the life she had to give up on at such a young age.

Speaking of which...Did the Mormons use the Hawaiians they imported to make healthier type O negatives? Polynesian has always had a longer lived inbreeding negative blood type upper class.

On a serious note most adults back then were utterly depressed and sought solace in alcohol, opiates, cocaine and chloroform.

It was a wretched existence for the majority.

Plentiful rot gut

That is an easy one. NO KNEEGROES !

Cannabis was in every patent medicine.

People back then were too busy trying to survive. Get up with the sun, take care of your farm, ranch, whatever work, eat, sleep, repeat. There were not appliances, yard/farm/ranch machines to make life "easier".
People probably still had panic attacks though maybe not as many.

People needed each other so they learned to get along. If someone was freaking out I'm sure it was dealt with by drugging the shit out of them with better stuff than they have now. Cheap or free back then.

:rere23:

Yes. Laudanum was their friend. People haven’t changed.

The gun went away. That’s why.
The murder rate was EXPONENTIALLY LOWER in Billy the Kids day.
Folks think twice about acting out on their idiotic emotions in public when everyone has a gun on there waist. And people were immediately hung for being a horse thief.

Of course today there’s only ONE country where you can still live like this.
ISRAEL. Funny how those pesky folks just always seem to steal everyone else’s good ideas. When I was in Netanya there we’re girls in bikinis with AR-15s on the beach. 80% of the general population brandished a gun openly. Guns were everywhere. And NO Muslim had a gun. NONE.
In Israel, if your a Goat Fucker and you have a gun your a DEAD Goat Fucker.
Weird how they have all these awesome laws but no one else is allowed to have these same laws. Like before. In Billy’s day.

They shot it with 1.80 in dimes.

Yes - death was a normality of life back then. We are so soft now!

that being said, I'm sure they had anxious moments goin' to the outhouse on cold winter morns...

specially when they ran outta corncobs...


now that's anxiety... lol

Post a meme, refute a thought...

Fook off...

Civilization.

Food then was organic, water was clear now all food and water is poisoned. No vaccines to give you allergy. No criminals to threaten you when you have gun and you can use it. No daily news about disasters, rapes, murder and coming doom. No social media to depress you about other's people fake lifes. No cars to make constant noise and poison air. No spending life in front of screen. No degeneracy in media. No capitalism and no rat race.

Try to go to beach or forest and anxiety decreases by 95% when there are no predatory humans, no noise and no pollution.

didn't know I made you so nervous.

Yes indeed. All women back then were tougher than these man-bun soy boy bitches today, and probably the, “manly” men today. You come into a settlement back then bitching and whining about your feelings snd how this or that offended you and you’d get your pussy ass handed to you along with probably an eye gouged out and an ear bitten off. There wasn’t too much use for any of this liberal bullshit until after WWII. Then, after the REAL men and women got done sorting things out for good or bad, their spoiled-ass baby boomer kids started a shit-show that’s still showing to sell-out crowds on Broadway to this day. Disgusting.

Nobody was trying to take their guns and or throw them in prison for smoking reefer.

They were far too busy tending gardens and livestock, chopping wood, hunting, fishing, cooking, cleaning, sewing their own clothes, quilts, etc.

HVAC units in every home. Chemicals being added to the water of most municipalities. Mandatory vaccines. Cell phones. Super-easy access to porn. Video games that keep kids AND adults.

All of the above helps to keep everyone inside sitting on their ass eating crap food, and not outside getting real physical activity. (masturbating isn't considered PT...unless there's a new kind in this future..)

So you were alive back then? What was it like living in the wild west?!?
