PREACH BROTHER

@@seankessel3867 Likewise Compatriot.✋🏻

Please tell that to the ones on MY side of the pond. 🇺🇸

"My people" were the cruel conquistadores. Should I be proud of how they slaughtered the Indigenous peoples of the Caribbean? I'm proud of the glory that was Spain in Empire day's, but not of my ancestors as individuals.

​@@chino3796 HISTORY is just that - history - what came BEFORE. LEARN from it and do not do it again. Also look at ALL history.

How do you know you are yorkshiremen by ancestry?you could be norman for all you know.

I’m Norman ancestry

What we are seeing today is a large population of people who are not that smart, have a hard time competing in today's job market. They are powerless and disgruntled in they're pathetic little lives so they lash out at anything that stirs their emotions. They are not the leader's or successful people in the communities. They are the welfare dependent leeching off of the few of left who have a brain and are not too lazy to use it.........

It's an epidemic of stupid zombie sheep!!! Mainstream followers!!! Bleeding heart libtards and social justice warriors who think that they know what's best for you!!

@@boostjunkie2320 awww, I’m sorry bud. Let me get a hurt-feelings report for you to fill out and I’ll even put a sticker on it for you when you’re done. It’s gonna be okay, the “bad people” can’t hurt you. Keep being a big, strong defender and commenting with all you’ve got!

@@evanm2911 You must have me confused with the bleeding heart crying libtards.......I'm just pointing it out to hurt feelings.....You or no one on RU-vid can hurt my feelings son

@@evanm2911 Ah, you must be one of the 100lb 30 year old men who don't know what restroom to use that I meant to offend......Let me guess Cali or New York? A libtard University? I nailed you on one more of those guesses...

True, it’s a very interesting coincidence

Had to?

This guy is a Norman propagandist since he's married to the duke of westminsters daughter. The Norman invasion was funded by the city of London ( Square mile ) approved by the church. It was a medieval communist takeover were almost everyone became a tenant and ownership almost completely disappeared except a few . The church wanted England to be exactly like the rest of catholic Europe as far as Christianity is concerned. So basically Britain has been under occupation since 1066 , look up the Fabian society.

@@dumpster_fiyah Had to, as in, if they didn’t, the region would’ve been a hotbed of unrest and hostility

Northern England was not full of pagans in the late 11th century

Those transactions are traditionally called a gift because this describes "something that has been given". It has nothing to do with Christmas presents or something like that.

haha

The people from this area are no longer the people from this area, who could they possibly be unforgiving towards, they probably wont be able to forgive themselves. Their ancestors of the people in that area at the time of the norman invasion probably killed a bunch of celts, vikings, angles or saxons. Just sin was committed against their ancestors doesn't mean the ancestors themselves are without their own sin.

History has a curious fetish for homicidal psychopaths.

No one cares what you believe Karen. You weren't around you don't know

@@feitme 🤣🤣🤣

@@feitme It's tradition to make your enemies bigger and more vile than they were. I'm not sure why they felt the need to do so. Having 100,000 plus people in your region (really your "country", given the travel limitations of the average person) being slaughtered by a bunch of foreign jerks would make anyone....salty.😎

Said from your pompous armchair with the benefit of 800 years of hindsight. You're a disgrace.

Pp

Someone's a bit salty....

True, most of these high ranked monks were second or third sons of landlords and instead of being murdered by the principal heir they were given the chance to become monks , bringing with them a 'dowry' and a yearly alowance. The common people of the region were forced to work indirectly for the monasteries. Landlords owned the quarries where these villagers worked for free from 90 till 120 days a year , as a tax to the landlord, him being able to give for free or at a rediculist price selling the stones , this was also the case for the workers building these churches, abbeys aso. And when they finally could earn some small money they partially were paid with food which they gratefully accepted as they therefor had no time to work their fields ( 90-120 days off).Abbeys made their incomes partly from taxing merchants and tradesmen which right was given by the landlord/baron/king aso. Some could claim even workers from the village . Edith Pargeter known as Ellis Peeters ( Cadfaël stories) wrote an interesting novelle ' Heaven Tree Trilogy' in which many of these attitudes come forward. An other great writer on these periods is Helene Nolthenius ( IT) . England or Italy there are few differences. There is a lot to find about the conditions in this period. And off course there were common monks, their lifes were totally different as theirs superiors. But still had a better life then common men in this feudal system. Seeing such documentaries make me think about the hard labour workers have put into it , yet, narrators allways tell how monks , lords aso build this and that , ... saddening .

Excellent point. We are so conditioned to see these preening farts as so austere and pious when they are simply living off a heavenly dole at the expense of people who could really use those worldly goods.

"The Larch". 🌳

I wasn't quite sure what it was from quite a long way away!

I live in Tidewater now.

R U an aristocrat though ?

they do moved to France before Brexit. lol

Perhaps, although those who were left to bury the dead might not agree.

More religious bashing

Give it a rest.

LGBT...lol
