    no dude, i am not telling you being critical is the problem. i’m telling you your delusional idealizing of the past is the problem.

    what you are doing is similar to the MAGA nonsense. ‘oh why can’t we go back to the 1950s when men were men and women were women’. we can’t because it isn’t true. that past never existed other than on TV shows.

    your ancesters didn’t even have the concept of freedom as you have it today. to them their poverty was part of the divine order of the world, and just like you, they wished they could become kings and nobility, and resented them. but they were kept in check by brutality and force. social life was also incredibly narrow minded. if you didn’t believe in god and went to church you were branded a witch and burned alive.

    maybe study some actual history?

    i mean look, if you want you can go buy a cheap piece of land and live out your medieval subsistence farming lifestyle, but i’m guessing you won’t.
