I love hearing about these old struggles. Our history presents it as if everyone just accepted the tyranny of that time but the reality is people have always been fighting the same fight.
It’s also nice to know that some of my ancestors were trying to help people instead of all of the awful things the aristocracy were doing.
It’s both heartening and disheartening. It’s good to see the people of the time didn’t accept the bullshit either, but it also hurts to see we’ve been fighting the same fight for hundreds (probably more like thousands, or tens of thousands) of years, and we’re not much closer to winning.
Great quote. Who said this?
Gerrard Winstanley.
