Life seemed more glorious back then.. The 1800s must have been the peak of humanity, you could have done anything and died in glory. There were battles like Waterloo and Borodino, cowboys, samurai, and exploration all in one lifetime. Why don't we have this glory anymore? Now all you can do is either sit in a cubicle and go on sterile trips around the world as "vacations" and then die forgotten or if you want "glory" you can sign up for the army and get killed by a drone controlled by some faggot. When will times genuinely be real again?
>DUDE samurai'sImagine being such a low IQ zoomer that samurai's are why you "le want to live in the past" and not because you could have been brutally beaten to dead by a mob of Carribean slaveowners after sleeping with their wives and bragging about it after delivering the news of the victory of Blenheim under the Duke of Marlborough to Queen Anne herself and only asking for the reward of a small portrait of her majesty herself. Fucking pleb, read a book instead of watching youtube slop you faggot
>>17963056Blame Napoleon.The sovl of the world died after the HRE fell
>Now all you can do is either sit in a cubicle and go on sterile trips around the world as "vacations" and then die forgotten or if you want "glory" you can sign up for the army and get killed by a drone controlled by some faggot.Its Industrial revolution and its consequences
Bayonett wounds were fun. Im sure when they got stabbed they tought the same thing. Or when a whole battalion woukd be sent to their death for some strategic reason that was the refuted 30 years ago, god how i miss those times. Dont get me started about human rights, that you could just kill anyone beneath your status without consequences, god it must be fun, because sure youre nit birn rich today but if you were birn back then youd definitely be part of the nobility, and even then youre one of the succesful ones not the ones that get poisoned or died in hunting accident because they were on the wrong place of succession. Civilization was just so much mor advanced back then, dont get me started about life without penecilin, god how i would have never died of an infection before the age of 12
>>17963219i dont even care you had way more to do back then
>>17963123its not about being samurai what its really about is getting to explore the world on these ships and then seeing these new peoples and stuff its way more fun going on these voyages and stuff
>>17963256Yes things to do like working 10 hours to get a shotty meal. Its literally survival, the life expectancy was 40 you fucking moron
>>17963272Do you seriously think people shriveled up like a raisin and died at 40 back then.. also you didn't have to work 10 hours you could've just become a soldier or a sailor or something and be happy and run around the fields shooting guns and have a nice uniform and a sword and fight in battle for fun and if you're really good then the king might make you nobility as a reward and give you some land for you and your kids to live on
>>17963272Also you could've become a musician back then and they didn't have radios back then so if you were good at piano and proved yourself you would become the next beethoven BUT NOW YOU CAN'T DO THAT BECAUSE THERE ARE RADIOS
99.9 percent of were peasant or serfs or soldiers for the meat grinderIf you questioned the king, nobles or priest you'd be horrifically tortured You're an idiot
>>17963292you can easily grift like that now a days too, go pick a theme and make a career of it, go make commie or rightoid themed covers of some dumb pop music and you'd be well off too.
>>17963324but that is genuinely lame like do you hear yourself instead of getting to play in like some kings palace you instead have to make coworker music for troons and blue haired women
>>17963304Stop acting like this was ancient egypt.. it's the 1800s.... unless you lived anywhere outside of europe or america then your life wouldn't be as bad as this even if you were a farmer
>>17963333Best thing is you could actually make a name for yourself. >>17963333
>>17963338yeah but there are millions of celebrities out there if everybody is a celebrity then no one is.. and also there's more to it i feel like i was meant to explore but everything has already been explored
>>17963338oh wait sorry i thought you were talking about modern day life>>17963339
>>17963339It feels unreal but there were millions of these so called celebrities. You just haven't heard of them because they were:a) irrelevant noblesb) forgetten political terroristsc) unrecognised artistsd) unacclaimed scientists And regardless, they still have made a name for themselves. Not everybody knows who they are but they are still part of history.
>>17963355yeah life was better back then you had way more options now its all robots or indians
>ugh...I want to live in the pastno you don't, you want to have done that and then want to boast about it on the internet.Put you in a 19th century average day and you'd be misreable, uncomfortable, woefully unhealthy. You would not be the cool guys in the paintings, you'd be the grunts getting killed or working a trillion hours a day for scraps.You live in a time where you can pretend the past was universally cool, instead of universally shittier with the upper crust of society having it pretty nice. That is the correct time for you to live; where things are better for ordinary people, and you have the freedom and time to sit and LARP like this.
>>17964224also there's no deodorant and women smell bad and don't shave their legs. further they dress in all-covering gowns and unless it's a literal prostitute who will probably give you syphilis you don't get to see the goods
>>17964233Women didn't have it better either they spent every waking moment doing exhausting household chores and were pregnant or recovering from pregnancy for most of their childbearing years and don't even get started on the high chance of dying while giving birth.
>>17964224based realist poster
health care was also terrible and you could die of injuries or illnesses now easily treated
>>17963056>wow i can't wait to march gloriously with napoleon>dies from dysentery
ok
>>17964293Even more recently things were more primitive. Your odds of surviving cancer in the 1980s were much lower. In the 1930s sick people were still quarantined and diseases like mumps and scarlet fever were still a problem. If a wound became septic you were SOL
>>17965542>Your odds of surviving cancer in the 1980s were much lowerhad you ever been inside of an 80s car or watched TV on an 80s TV set? absolutely medieval.
