it's actually a recurring phenomenon across the ages... in the late 19th century, russia was having its' "free love" time, and the very ❤️ symbol itself actually originates from a time in rome, this represents a leaf of a plant that stimulates abortion (not sure, maybe it's actually rivea corymbosa, aka morning glory, the leaf shape is the same)

humans keep falling for the same shit over and over again, i'm sure if you wanted to do a really deep historical survey you can find times where the fad of "free love" arose over and over again and find the same kind of scum, possibly even historically connected scum promoting it
