medievalists really said serfdom was actually pretty lit and somehow made a compelling case

VS Feudal Serf • Worked 20 hours a week. • Married obedient 17 year old wife. • Paid a flat tax to his local lord equal to a fraction of the value of his land. • Owned his own land. • High quality, handcrafted goods. • Indisputable head of his household. • Lived in racially homogeneous, high-trust society. • Died peacefully beside his loving family at the ripe age of 60. Modern Wagecuck • Works 40 hours a week. • If lucky, marries an ungrateful 30 year old gold digging hag. • Lucky to keep half of his income. • Doesn't own land. Rents apartments. • Low quality, mass produced consumer goods. • Head of his household, wife permitting. • Lives in multicultural, low-trust society. • Lives to an unnaturally long 75, burdening his children with enormous healthcare fees that they will never be able to pay off.
