Me, five hours into explaining what a film is, the existence of Hollywood, the existence of a country over the sea called ‘America’, the internet and what woke means: “ok so basically, in the year of our lord two thousand and fourteen there was this thing called ‘Gamer Gate’ and single men who couldn’t have sex would harass women for criticising video games”

i think a medieval peasant probably would be able to understand incels, lots of systems existed that could curtail a young person’s available partners in small village life. this post makes me think it’s plausible that it could be a familiar mentality for antique people
I legitimately believe the average peasant was less ignorant and more cultured than the type who makes these videos. From what I’ve heard it wasn’t uncommon for a peasant to travel by foot long distances at least a couple times in their life.
to be fair that trip would be to a grave of a saint where they thought that collecting rotting juices from the corpse could cure blindness.
what’s amazing is the modern guy’s ignorance in the face of being able to read and presumably having a secondary education.
Not me. I’m going on Pilgrimage for the hotties and then probably getting burned at the stake for heresy after the fact.
