It's just wishful thinking that the solution to our current dysfunctional relationship to labor can be found in the past, ultimately driven by a failure of imagination. Sure a medieval peasant's relationship to labor might have in some ways been better than today, but in most ways it was not. We can look at the past and learn from the positives only by acknowledging the negatives.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
