Once upon a time, you could walk to your local pharmacy to pick up a prescription for methamphetamines or LSD to cure common ailments such as anxiety, depression, or itchy eyes.
Human sacrifice used to be a cultural norm. Not enough rain this harvest season? No problem. Kill a teenager.
Slavery wasn’t outlawed in the United States until 1863.
It used to be perfectly acceptable to hit a child when they were getting out of line.
