That really deadly Spanish flu that happened during WW1 didn't even start near Spain. They were just the first ones to publicly be all like "hey, there's something going around killing a lot of people or getting them really sick really fast".
Most likely, as near as anyone trying to track down the origin of the Spanish flu is that it started in a small Kansas farm town and spread from there to the Fulton Kansas army training base, and on over to France.
It killed around 50,000,000 people. Had there been no war, it likely never would have even made it out of that Kansas town with like 1,000 people in it.
God dang americans infecting everyone and then blaming it on the spanish because they were neutral and it was not in the national interest to hide the flu because of war.
TBF, at the time, no one actually knew where it came from. Decades went by before it was mostly deciphered that it likely came from the US.
The polish one is incorrect at least, it was called the french disease (Franca) or kiła
So... Since according to the meme the Spanish Christians didn't shift the blame I guess it has to be them, right?
The Hungarian language still uses franc as a curse word as a result.
(It's pronounced kinda like "frantz")

Exactly the first comment I was looking for!
I always knew pitbull was an STD.
You always knew? I guess it's fair to say... ya tú sabe.
makes sense as they often came through the ports, from the sailors. so they seemed to be imported from elsewhere; in fact, it was a "sailor" thing, not a "foreign country" thing
But why is Pitbull the picture for this. Is he patient zero?
Mr. Worldwide
Damn it.

I don't get it. Are we now calling it The Pitbull Disease?
