The concept of the "dark ages" is ahistorical bullshit but ok.
but the point is generally correct that church control over media and literature was very bad and we all know it
Reminder that it's called the dark ages due to the lack of sources at the time, not because they were bad.

Right, but what does the average westerner call this time period? Like every term is based on a western calendar and a western perspective. I can't think of a term that conforms to a better world perspective and being effective at reminding the :lmayo: that they were also engaging in these archaic practices in both modern times and in the western medieval age.
Medieval or “the Middle Ages”
they call it medieval? we're more than a century out from the historiographical reappraisal of the period, everyone learns 'we dont call it that anymore'
