Ted the Leper?
>you get a house
>you get a terrain
>you get a wife
>150 days of vacation
Yeah, you are a slave posmodern man.
While I don't necessarily disagree with your premise, I suspect that you wouldn't know how to live without the majority of the trappings of modern life.
The only thing I would truly miss is books. Poorgays didn't have access to books. But there was oral storytelling so not too bad. The internet sucks.
from the printingpress onwards even the poors shared books with eachother. They didnt get to read a lot of different books but the books they had were studied intensely. if you had an interest in reading and werent in russia you could get books
well duh, because i was born in the modern life
if i was born then instead of now then i would
I would literally just pay an Arab trader to bring me weed seeds and smoke weed all day and listen to the chansons at the bar after my 2 hour work day because my kids are doing it all. Yeah, I’d be perfectly fine pal
>aha, gotcha! You would be out of place in ancient Athens because you don't speak Greek!
Was this a real argument in your mind?
>>you get a house
>>you get a terrain
>>you get a wife
all this shit you can get today if you weren't a lazy and unmotivated person
This. Wtf? Are there anons here that don’t have a place of their own and romance?
If you have those you don't belong here, normie.
Yes I’m one of them. Getting a wife is a social interaction issue not a financial issue
Most people I know around thirty don’t have all three of these
If you can’t see how pre-industrial work was more satisfying you’ve simply been too dehumanized by modernity
These threads are useless. While I agree with your sentiment, we are never going back. Nostalgia is futile.
An anon once said : there's no going back to the way things used to be, the only way forward is through this river of shit.
was that Anon the quotemaker Aalewis ?

>i-if you just believe in science fiction, everything works itself out...eventually!
Wait until you realize that the whole of modern life rests on exactly this assumption and that we’ve staked our entire civilization on it
Reading Marxist literature is the same thing unironically
>just wait, technology will fix everything and usher in socialist utopia! Just two more weeks and the proletariat will finally have enough leverage to overthrow “the system”
>cosmos exists
>order of cosmos exists
>consciousness preexists as possibility within cosmic order
>entire history of cosmos unfolds
>consciousness arises
>conscious beings begin to wonder what they are, and think about concepts like "cosmos" and "order" and ask questions like "why consciousness instead of just matter?" and "why something instead of nothing?"
>conscious beings have animal natures as well, with pleasure/pain calculus
>some of the conscious beings seize upon the pleasure/pain calculus and say "if only we could make there be more big cums than big hurts, the world would finally make sense AND be complete"
materialists are truly strange creatures
Build toilets instead of talking about cosmic order.
>Nooo! Don't even think of using it! It will render my magic shit false and useless!
no evidence that human consciousness can be uploaded to a computer
extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, chud
>men that live in largely homogenous communities that exists in close proximity to the land and do honest work to put food on the table while not having to worry about pesticides and degraded soil
Stupid zoomers like you should go back to worrying about worthless made-up bullshit like asteroid mining.
>men
slaves*
If they were slaves they wouldn't be able to leave. Coincidentally you can't "leave" modern society either.
Most people in the modern era definitely deserve to be burnt at the stake.
>slaves*
subjects of a king*
In a kingdom that shared the wealth more equitably that in the current world btw.
>le homogeneous society face
Pretending that you necessarily would’ve been burned at the stake if you had born then is like pretending that you necessarily would’ve been a billionaire had you born now
To all the wannabe farmers here: you can still farm and live off the land.
If you conveniently ignore all the problems that come with modern day farming techniques and the overall degradation of soil quality yes.
Serf > Superfluous 21st Century Man
The only people who push this demoralizing idea that a Serf was a lowly, degrading status are what the latter embody.
homies should read Ecclesiastes, no matter the person, the time, the setting, or the job, life is often a burden and a trial. Suffering is part of the human condition. Even if you were able to be the much romanticized serf living off the land, you would still be suffering and b***hing. If you don’t want to go full mountain man, then figure out something to do. b***hing on a literature board about the good old days which you never even lived in will solve nothing. We aren’t going back to peasants and serfs. Deal with it. Crying accomplishes nothing. I think the lot of you are just complainers and would complain regardless of the life you live and job you have. To be quite frank, if you aren’t going to do anything to improve your station in life, just have a nice day. I’m sick of le west has fallen complainers on a fricking literature site. It’s off topic and your voice doesn’t matter
Epic post homosexual, just pull yourself up! Go read a berserk comic.
>guys who have never grown so much as a potato yearning for an agrarian society
Getting real sick of this shit
They are clowns, you’re supposed to laugh at them lol
>projecting onto anonymous users
Bro literally everyone has chickens and ducks and bees nowadays.
See
>guys who have never grown so much as a potato claiming an agrarian society is literal hell
>the lord called us to harvest again
>omg what a tyrant, we already harvested last year
>i know dude and there's so much fricking wheat, we should ask him if we can plant less next time
I think the point is to use industrial technology in service of sustainability and harmony with nature rather than against it.
harvesting grain for a feudal lord would unironically be less stressful and degrading than any job i've had in recent years
Ted makes a good point about going innawoods but I don't see how you would want to go back to living off the land without tractors and combine harvesters.
Ted wrote one of the greatest refutations of ‘the good old days’ ever, OP is a useless wrong homosexual as usual
ITT failures coping. If you can’t make it today you wouldn’t have made it hundreds of years ago. Simple as
