feudalism only has such bad look because it was the first main enemy of capitalism

idiots do not prove general intelligence was lower

when capitalism was progressive

lol

this is basically you right now

they had a wrong concept of substance, ok, dont mean they were dumb

in fact mostly people do today

doesnt*

most philosophy until the 16th century was still based on aristotelian concepts

i'd say he was pretty damn smart

for his time he was

smart people can come to wrong conclusions

where did i say that

yeah to "ancient greeks" in general, not aristotle in particular

i mean slaves didnt had any acess to information whatsoever

i did not know he believed that, but i do not think he was an idiot

so understandable

we are talking now about greece

back then there was no such thing as empirical science and knowledge was a luxury good

but serfs didnt had education too

except for the clergy

access to education != being smarter than someone

uhhhhh nope

in agriculture too

feudalism developed agriculture to levels unknown until the feudal era

the bronze age actually had a big boom in agriculture, and i don't think that was feudalism already

wait your sentence doesn't make sense

sorry

im brazillian

what i mean is that they developed agriculture a lot

very slowly, but yeah, and apparently a lot more sustainable than the bronze age system

which eventually led to more accumulation of wealth and creating the merchant class, making cities important trading and financial centers and giving rise to capitalism

feudalism is the same as the feudal era i'd say, that's what i meant

@Geamr man animal traction came strong as hell in feudalism

like never before

in a relatively short time

i don't know enough about the development of agriculture tech in that period, but i meant slow through todays lens

but yeah technological advances were accelerating in earnest around then and really jumped in the enlightenment era after
