blowing the butt trumpet has been an embarrassing thing for millennia

This is not correct. There is a Martin Luther qoute (around 1500) that goes something like "why don't you burp or fart? Wasn't the meal to your liking?" The Romans made the latrine a social gathering. The need for butt trumpet privacy is fairly recent.

    I might be wrong but I'm like 80% sure historically people have been killed for farting at inopportune moments

    Me and my roommate in Iraq were in our 1st Seargents office getting chewed out when I farted and stopped him from speaking to glare at me. Then my roommate farted and it was baaaaad. He started speaking in tongues for a bit before relearning English and told us both to get the fuck out. That's probably the closest I've come to dying for a fart.
