This group of chuds invented conspiracy theories about seat belts killing people.
I know you're doing a (top-tier) bit here, but I feel the need to point out that my parents and grandparents used to complain that seat belts would, and I quote, "strangle you if you were in a car accident."
my father (before i was born) drove drunk and crashed into a barrier, launching himself through his windshield. he believes not wearing the seatbelt saved his life for some reason and tried to pass along this "wisdom" to me. he said a seat belt will trap you in a car and burn you to death.
thankfully, this was after my mom had divorced him, because he was basically deadbeat shithead. so his lessons were fairly compartmentalized. he was also against flu shots, going to the doctor, going to the dentist, and pretty much anything that would be recommended by public health experts.
reactionary boomers were a very deranged breed and some of them will choose death before the dishonor of learning a lesson.
