      "Yeah we got to marry a first cousin, piss/shit in a pan in a room, and could purchase radioactive aphrodisiacs and energy supplements. No better time to be alive!"

        The aristocracy were very much not the only one's to be marrying cousins back then.

    Rich people never stopped having fancy parties, even whatever 1910 era themed parties.

      While it actually is the Christian church and state intersection which forbids people to dance (e.g. at Easter Thursday and Friday).

    Like, I still do this, there are heaps of clubs that do 18th and 19th century dance in pretty dresses.

    They just tend to be the same sort of rabid communists you see in the folk scene.

        I agree, that said I mostly do the 17th century French contre-danse versions which are uh...pretty courtly. (They started as Scottish folk, became French court, then rural American.)

          The couple of times I've done contra dancing have been the more rustic variety, and I had a great time. Actually, thanks for the reminder, that would be a fun post-covid hobby to get in to.

            "modern" contra dance is a hell of a lot of fun, especially at a folk festival where you can drink and dance until the sun comes up.

            I very slightly prefer Scottish Country Dance though

        Maybe this is a commonweath thing but I've never met anyone there that wasn't at least radical green-demsoc. You can sing the internationale and they'll join in.

    a ha ha you dumbshit marble bust fucker you would have been working 14 hour days in a mine or a factory and coming home to wash the blood off your gums with copious amounts of moonshine while your syphilitic parents were busy dying in the same bedroom as you.

    Anyone who uses the term "Europa" or "Evropa" is probably a former Stormfront posting white nationalist

    [checks out their twitter posts mostly about "the beauty of the white race", et al]

    Yyyyyep.... big time "I'm not a racist I'm just a race realist" energy.

    Edit: this tweet of theirs might be my favorite: "Guys, I have a serious question. Do you consider brunettes less European than people with fair hair? I have seen quite a lot of tweets about how beautiful and noble aryan women are which is true but this energy is nowhere to be found when it comes to brunettes."

    One of the most cruel thing the (((cultural Marxists))) ever did was to ban rich people from dancing.

        "The emotional draw here is, of course, that pretty girl who didn't want to sleep with you. The other ideologies don't explain why that happened. Fascism does. Because the commies pushed the king under a street car and now nothing in the world is holy or beautiful. During your stay in Revachol plenty of women will tell you no, so, naturally, most people will pick this one."
