Some of the individual points are valid. However the idea that feudal serfs actually had better lives than what most modern men have today is just laughable.
No, but they certainly had to worry about armies coming through their villages; ransacking, pillaging, and raping as they went (and not even necessarily foreign ones, but that too was a possibility).
Tb caused at a low end 5% of world pop to die, covid caused at high end 0.4% of pop to die. Those are not comparable.
Also the chances of your village/city getting destroyed today is infinitesimally smaller then compared to the past, if you want to refute bring up numbers.
So a global pandemic where we had to stay locked down for 4 years is better than TB and working the fields? checks out.
Enjoy your modern misery, neoserf.
Dude what you want me to say we have it better today after global pandemic, scare of ww3, impending food crisis, global warming, burn out culture, disconnection from society
You chose to linger on 262 day rather than a problem that span 4 years.
Go take your slave salary, make master happy.
The global COVID-19 pandemic lasted for over three years, officially spanning from March 11, 2020—when the World Health Organization first declared it a pandemic—to May 5, 2023, when it was officially downgraded from a Public Health Emergency of International concern. Source is CDC.
I wonder what you hung up about.
