    I straight up just do not believe all this hype about how happy and fulfilled medieval peasants were all the time There was a lot of florid poetry about desperately wanting to die and go to Heaven to get this mortal life over withhttps://twitter.com/erikmbaker/status/1284926008454520833?s=20 …

    Ross Douthat's great because he's like "isn't life under liberal capitalism dissatisfying" and I'm like, sure. and then he's like "wouldn't it be better if you were chained to the wall in the dungeon of the Duke of Bergen County" and that's where he loses me

        I haven't seen the guy around lately, but the account that compares Douthat to Ralph Wiggum is excellent.

        "The daily grind" was literally Medieval peasants spending hours a day in back breaking labour grinding wheat into course flour so they could make shitty bread. If they were lucky, the lord would own a mill where they could pay some of their meagre income to grind their flour.

        The daily grind was fun for the whole family! The miller would often short change the peasants, which is why the name "Miller" is uncommon in England. You wouldn't want to be named after the guy everyone hated because he ripped them off.

        We also do it with kind of an electric corkscrew.

        At least it's more creative than Steven Pinker citing the same old misleading stats to justify his same old catchphrases that were themselves the same bad base assumptions that they worked backwards to fit the data around.

        And nobody has ever heard of a “Peasants’s War” or something like that.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_peasant_revolts …

        I'm sorry: is it currently a thing to claim medieval peasants were "happy"? What??
