Bitchy feminist did her usual man-hating and comes forward to ease her guilt years later when shit already went down and somebody got to take the fall as usual she gets the light slap on the wrist and go on with her day. If only there was something to stop it but US justice system love to coddle women in general more.
That's why I don't hate medieval ages. They seem to have been a huge believer of eye for an eye, needle for a needle approach when dealing punishment. And people say medievals are stupid, I used to agree with it until I got to see the stupidity is even more prevalent and worse than ever nowadays. We have the access to all the info and some people choose to remain willfully ignorant.
Precisely. You can't blame starving people for knowing only as much as they could. We're not starving and yet we insist on forgetting that men and women are different. The medievals would call us stupid, ignorant morons, and they would be right.
I used to hate religion as a New Atheist, so I studied the middle ages to laugh at them, but I came away with grudging and now liberal admiration.

The nice thing about learning history is, you read enough and you start to see that the only things that change are the names and technology. All the motivations and foibles, vices, and virtues that our leaders and decisionmakers have today are the same ones they had a century ago, two and a half-centuries ago, a millennium, two millennia, and even further back.
Oh sure, we happen to know more, (and there's something to be said for the benefits to intelligence decades of stable food supplies have given us) but the same things drive us as what drove our ancestors back in the middle ages. We aren't any more "Enlightened" today than they were.

In my opinion, I think we are more unenlightened. The vanity and vindictiveness is all time high and are praised as virtue.

I'm not sure if I agree with this any more. At least the leaders in anglosphere all seem to be incompetent, out of their elements worst of all only serving their own interests.

The medievals had the lex talionis: if you made a false accusation against someone, then you received the punishment he would have received.
And to imagine the people today call the medievals stupid, when we let people lie to their heart's delight with no consequences.
