      Not sure what point you’re even trying to make here. Life expectancy has been improving due to science and technology improving.

      You could starve to death because your crop had been taken by the lords or die hanged to a tree because you complained

      That’s literally how things work today where western corps exploit the workers in the global south. That’s what your lifestyle in the west is built on. Go read up on the coups, death squads, and other atrocities the west regularly commits around the world to keep the system of exploitation going. Here’s a good primer for you https://archive.org/details/KillingHope

          Last I checked, the genocide of the native population of America was fuelled by the British capitalism. Notably, capitalism was also the primary driver of African slave trade.

              Wow, how convenient: “it wasn’t a perfect utopia so you’re not allowed to blame capitalism for it”.

              A reasoning as perfectly smooth and circular as your brain

          in the medieval age when everyone was starving?

          Mao has a great quote about how if you don’t investigate something, you have no right to speak. Basically “shut up you stupid fucker” and statements like this are what it was for.

          That simply isn’t true. You’ve made some pretty broad claims about the middle aged already and putting them together it’s a pretty easy guess you don’t know jack shit about that time period. Cause so far it seems like you’ve gotten all of your information from pop culture.

              so we’re to the point where you’re not even making substantive arguable claims anymore, you’re just expecting people to agree with you because you use reasonable sounding framing

          Are you saying that since now only part of the world is starving, it was better in the medieval age when everyone was starving?

          https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Motte-and-bailey_argument

          Also, the nobility & clergy weren’t starving during feudalism, only the peasants during famines.

          I’m a huge fan of arguments of the form "Are you saying [absurd nonsense that in no way resembles what they say said]?
