Wow the first virtue signaling maskers, from 54 years ago.

Below is a 2015 earth day advertisement, that is weird and somewhat sexual in nature.

Mods pull if too controversial.

I guess I’m naive, but I don’t see anything ‘sexual’ about the picture.

And then....it just died. As if the last Hippies just gave up. The rebirth seems to have been the whole Global Warming BS stirred up by Al Gore. He was probably paid to do so by those most poised to benefit/profit from the whole scam.

get ‘em young and keep ‘em a lifetime, or whatever it was that the devil said.

what’s with the masks? Don’t recall any pandemics in my childhood. Was it for nuclear fallout or something?

You see sex in that? What are you seeing that we can’t see?

It was protest theater, against air pollution.

That first picture answers the question, How long have the lunatics been hiding behind masks?

It was meant to protest Capitalism.

I recall the early years of Earth Day celebrations.
Back then, it was mostly known as Ecology Day, at least in my area of Michigan. I had a cloth patch showing the American Flag using green. yellow and white. Sewed it onto my bookbag.

The masks were intended to allude to dirty air.

In large Asian cities lots of people wear masks because the air is often so bad, and did so long before Covid. When they come here, they wear them too.

Lenin was born Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov in Streletskaya Ulitsa, Simbirsk, now Ulyanovsk, on 22 April 1870. Funny how Earth Day is also the birthday of the ultimate commie.

Amazing how in just 50 years earth day evolved into marxism, climate change and wealth redistribution, among so many other things. All planned and demonstrated the power of k-12 indoctrination.

Yep. Lots of Asians in my area - Covid gave them an excuse to wear those masks all the time now. I don’t get it. Beautiful fresh spring air and they’re wearing their stupid masks.

I’ve seen them for many years, especially in the warm months.

I know that my Korean friends have complained that after being here a few years, they became allergic to plants here. That might be why some wear them.

I wouldn't have noticed anything sexual about it either until it was pointed out.

Perhaps.

Both children are hugging “Mother Earth” with their private parts covered by the banner. I think it is reaching to say it is sexual, but who knows what the commie greenie perverts were thinking when they designed it.

“Hey - in 50 years we can reuse it to promote pedophilia!”
