>literally half the show is “muh feminism”
>spend 10 minutes talking about Victorian womens’ periods
>oldest slut daughter is overjoyed to wear thong underwear again at the end
>same daughter complains about lack of sex, drugs, and alcohol in Victorian entertainment. Complains she misses clubbing on the weekend.
>the house is comfy enough that it’s basically like urban camping and it’s still too hard for them
>the bitch vegan wife continues to try to serve vegetarian food to the family
>she gets upset at every little thing

The irony is that the Victorians come across as 10/10 people. Wholesome, industrious, pious, rational. Society had cohesion and stood up for its beliefs. Moderns are exposed for the morally empty hedonists they are. Everything is vice and pleasure with the average westerner today. No morals in the culture of any kind.

>turn of the century social norms and technology does not conform to modern standards
>people are upset about this

If you expected anything else from a show like that your deluded.

>modern standards

Which are?

>>same daughter complains about lack of sex, drugs, and alcohol in Victorian entertainment. Complains she misses clubbing on the weekend.

and her father tolerates her?

I'm beginning to think some daughters should genuinely be raped by their dads.

The dad is a cuck. It was his wife’s idea to do it and then she changes her mind on literally the 3rd day.

>live in an earlier time period for three months
>make no attempt to imitate their life styles or understand their values

What did they mean by this

>same daughter complains about lack of sex, drugs, and alcohol in Victorian entertainment. Complains she misses clubbing on the weekend.

Failure of parenting.

Desu I’ve seen it and yeah, the average normie comes off worse for wear. Victorians at least devoted themselves to reading, photography, sport etc. the west today has vidya, clubs, alcohol, drugs. More so the Victorians has the guts to call out degenerates and those with vices. Today the West has no values beyond “don’t judge anyone”. We are a fucking waste of a society compared to the people who came before us.

>have the sum total of human knowledge via the Internet
>use it to stream porn

Yes.
Moral nihilism has led to mindless hedonism.

That’s a direct quote btw. She also literally holds up her pink thong to the camera

>We are a fucking waste of a society compared to the people who came before us.

Its funny, because degenerate literally means inferior to your predecessors.

And no one said anything?

How do you even raise a daughter effectively when every single organ of mass media is telling her to be a whore?

My girlfriend was complaining a few months ago because even if you want to wear a standard sundress these days, 80% of the cuts you find at a standard retailer in western countries have some shit like an open back, or have that cut-away down your side so that your side-bra can be seen.

Mainstream culture has never been this whorified. Yeah, whores and sluts always existed, but not to the point it was mainstreamed down children's throats as a way to demoralize societies.

>average British family

Victorians genuinely had higher physiological IQs than modern Brits.

What, you thought all that world-beating engineering just came about by chance?

History is driven in no small part by biology too.

no standards, lmao praise kek szechuan sauce

If I have kids, I will probably try to guide them on what they read and watch. Try to show them Greek Ethics and shows that have some moral content. Maybe explain why the characters in "Friends" and series like those are not good role models.

Controlling who they are friends with, to the best of your ability probably helps. Laissez faire parenting doesn't work.

Desu I get why homeschoolers do it

I saw “Frontier House”, “Colonial House”, “Manor House” and “1940s House” on PBS when they were originally broadcast.

Frontier House (which was the first one in the series) and Colonial House wasn’t bad but as it was produced or co-produced PBS, Leftist political correctness reared it’s ugly head.

On Frontier House, they wouldn’t let the families do any hunting or provide them with the equivalent amount of meat that a typical frontier family would have supplemented their diet with thru hunting, with the result that one family with three kids was going hungry and the mom was forced to cheat and sneak off to sell homemade jam and jellies in the nearby modern town and buy sufficient food.

This stupidity also intruded into Colonial House, where the colonialists didn’t have enough to eat and PBS’ answer was a ridiculous scene where the settlers stumbled around the woods with 10lb fiberglass children's bows to “prove” that colonialists didn’t hunt…

There was also another scene where some dude came out as gay and instead of driving him out of the colonial settlement, as would have been historically accurate, they all happily let him stay.

In Manor House, where the wife’s unmarried adult sister was living with them for a while but she wanted her boyfriend to come live with there also and the producers (not surprisingly) wouldn’t let him, as that would be completely out of character for the time period, so the sister bailed on the show.

I don't remember anything about 1940s House.

Otherwise, they’re pretty good series and I recommend them.

Dan Harmon should be gang raped on camera - just for a laugh, though. Tee hee!
Sodomise him with a crucifix - wow, so edgy! Suck a lemon, Jesus!

>tfw you remember watching 1940s House when it came out
>you were already 19 then

Seems your thread is a thinly veiled attempt to criticize modern values, not any historical portrayal of a 1900s household.

>And no one said anything?

Part of the reason for these series is to show modern people having to deal with life in oldy timey days, so every episode has the participants complaining about missing this, that or the other thing.

No, it’s just a shitty tv show that had potential but was PC’d to death. Secondly, modern society has no values.

See ya around leftypol

Why does a criticism of modern values compared to those of the 1900s belong on /pol/? Have humanists historically abstained from criticising the morals of the societies they lived in?

Seems you're a goodboy who wants to make this board into 'anti-/pol/' or some stupid shit, and will loudly cluck until everyone who doesn't fit that mold is gone.
>>>/kys/

Thank you

Fuck off shitlib. You have nothing left to defend your religion with.

You know, when I see posts like yours, it makes me fucking blood pressure go through the roof.

America is hurting. America is angry and sacred. America doesn't need that giant orange retard that you put in the white house. It needs hope and tolerance. And yeah, gay marriage and trans acceptance too, deal with it.

> not wanting to live back in the day in a huge manor house and bang q.t. scullery maids

WTF is wrong with you?

You’re going to have to try harder than that

>He thinks all Victorian Era people lived up to their values
Not saying most families were as stupid and shitty as the one in this show, but ideals are not the same as actual lifestyles

...

I'm going to reply as though you actually meant this, because its well done and deserves a response.

>it makes me fucking blood pressure go through the roof.

Have an aneurysm, nukka.

>America is hurting. America is angry and scared.

You are not America, I am not American.

>it needs hope and tolerance

Which it will not get from saccharine, weepy court eunuchs.

>gay marriage

The whole point was to devalue marriage, when marriage had already been denuded of value for decades. Good for you.

>trans acceptance

I implore as many people to transition as possible so I can know they will suffer for the rest of their lives, endlessly dilating and draining filthy, fetid pus out of a wound they are not allowed to admit they regret inflicting upon themselves.

...

;_;

lol i seen her eat poo.
0/5

Still, it was what you were supposed to strive to. And at least Victorian society had the balls to proclaim an ideal, not just “lol do whatever maaaan”
