While Chad knights were raping and pillaging various towns or fighting wars, what was life like for the medieval robot?
>>
probably locked up/killed for spiritual reasons due to abnormal behaviour. either that or a serf

>>29176753
Actually, the sheltered robot children were the ones out raping and pillaging and more generally dying.

Chad the jester back at the castle fucking Princess Stacey.

Normies were peasants as usual, except farming instead of playing console FPS.

Arranged marriages were commonplace, and women hadn't been "liberated" (allowed to act like impulsive whores without consequences), so no.
>>
>>29177155
Common for the nobility, which was a tiny section of society. The commoners were much more likely to just fuck when they pleased. And as long as the church got their tithes, they generally didn't care either. Peasant women weren't usually denied anything a man was, and they often owned inns and brothels.

I wanna know how my genetics lasted so long. How could someone as dumb and weirs as me make it in any time period? I know the idea of women having less choice back then but why would anyone force a marriage if their daughter with ME? DESPICABLE ME. I suppose my traits could have been carried in a female...

I done some Googling, and it turns out that medieval peasants lived a better life relative to the medieval upper-class than the lower-class of today do in relation to the upper-class.

Medieval lower-class worked fewer hours doing easier work than post-industrial lower-class. There was less to buy for both the upper-class and lower-class, meaning that income was not as important then as it was now. Medicine was almost non-existent, so again money had even less use back then. Boys married at around 14 to girls of around 12. Women couldn't own land, so they were forced into marriages. No one was lonely.

Obviously there was the possibility that you would be drafted into war, but aside from that, the lower-class lived almost the same as the upper-class. The difference between the lower-class and upper-class has been growing ever since. Some rich bastard in today's world who gets pussy like whoah will be a thousand times happier than some Walmart-working ugoo who can't get laid. But back in medieval times, a duke would only be marginally happier than a peasant.

Are you addicted to porn?
Are you playing video games every day?
We're you constantly reminded not to vent out your anger as a child and to bottle up your emotions and never found a healthy outlet?

Because that didn't happen in the good old dark ages. Instead of video games you tormented small animals
Instead of porn you'd rape the fisher's daughter
And you were probably allowed to beat each other with sticks as kids, no faggot lady teacher taking away any boyhood fun.

You'd have turned out alright. And if you were a weak sissy and an ugly bitch then you'd do your job and find an equally ugly wife. Not like your standards would be really high. There isn't a billboard and television brainwashing you back then.

They lead proper lives as common men, all this granted to them by what we lack nowadays (unchallenged religious moral code)

When moral codes become something optional like in contemporary society, there's no place for those not at the top sexual hierarchies.

>you ignored how happiness is relative and people always envy those in the higher pecking order
THAT WAS MY POINT YOU FUCKING MONGREL!

There was less of a difference then. Meaning there was less envy. That is my entire fucking point. Learn to fucking read you spastic.

>and how they had far less entertainment
THAT WAS MY POINT DIPSHIT! A duke would be just as bored as a peasant.

>and how they had no external for of knowledge/learning
What does knowing things have to do with being happy? I know a lot of really smart people who know all sorts of stuff but are unhappy as fuck. I never said medieval people were smart. I said they were happy. You fucking retard.

>and how people have always been lonely and always will be
But everyone back then got married and were community-focused. Now, the social outcasts go to work, don't talk to anyone, go home, and wish they were dead. That never happened back then. That is my point. Idiot. People were forced into communities and there was a smaller difference between the lower-class and upper-class. I literally explained this in my first post. Go reread it you autistic fuck.

No way anon, or else nothing could evolve. Traits have to be passed on reliably or else evolution wouldn't work. I think its more like these traits are recessive and they can pop up when both parents have them. IR some kind of perfect storm where if parent A has X Y and Z genes and parent B has A B and C genes then the child is a genius for example. If someone only has A Xand Y genes then they will not be a genius in this hypothetical idea. Anon pls tell me the answers

You fucking idiot dunce dense flense cunt, there was a big difference between a noble and a serf. Nobles rode horses, they jousted, they wore shiny armor, they trained to be expert warriors, they saved princesses, they ate fancy feasts, the hunted wild game, they led armies, they wore gold crowns. Most importantly they controlled all the serfs and owned everything.

Rich people had way more entertainment, retard.

Being dumb and knowing nothing about the world leads to more misery, dumbfuck.

Forced marriage? How happy! Forced into interacting with a small community of people, many of whom you probably dislike? Awesome! Why do you think everyone avoids their own fucking families today? Because people only wanna be around certain people. Dumb fuck ass munch donkey ballsacj locker.

Not as big of a difference between the upper-class and lower-class of today.

>Nobles rode horses, they jousted, they wore shiny armor, they trained to be expert warriors, they saved princesses, they ate fancy feasts, the hunted wild game, they led armies, they wore gold crowns
And do you really think that peasants were bothered by that?
"Aww man that guy gets to do jousting but I just have to do wrestling! Man my life is so shit!"
"Aww man that guy is really good with a sword but I'm not! I feel so shit!"
"Aww man that guy gets to eat at feasts but I just have to eat with my family who loves me"
It's all superficial as fuck. It would be like getting upset because someone has a Lamborghini and you drive a shitty BMW.

>Rich people had way more entertainment, retard.
I never said they didn't you fucking idiot. I said the difference was smaller than today's difference. Peasants and nobles did the exact same fucking thing, except to different degrees. Peasants would go to taverns, while the nobles would go to feasts. Big whoop who cares? It's the same thing.

>Being dumb and knowing nothing about the world leads to more misery, dumbfuck.
No it doesn't. Americans know fuck all about the world but you don't see them any more depressed than Yuropeans. Do you really think a peasant who works a few hours a day, who has a family, his own house, and chills with his friends at the tavern is going to be a miserable person? Sure, he has to worry about conscription, but chances are he's gonna get through his life without ever being in a life-or-death fight.

>Forced marriage? How happy!
It's not forced. It was necessary. Big difference. We need to eat, but we are not force-fed. Learn English.

>Forced into interacting with a small community of people, many of whom you probably dislike?
stop being edgy

There were no robots because the concept of individualism didn't exist before the Enlightenment. Everyone had their function in the community.
