@DemocracyMattersALot for historical context, there was literally almost no food at the time after a volcanic eruption had caused harvests to fail and people were starving in the streets of paris. What we’re experiencing now is just plain evil

on the plus side mount tambora's eruption meant lord byron and his guests including mary shelley in switzerland were cooped up inside because the summer was so cold and rainy. so they had a ghost story writing contest and mary shelley came up with frankenstein
plus the above image meant "a tale of two cities" "les miserables" etc
so all the suffering is good for the arts
