    i love shit like this, ‘look at all these people who know each other! or know someone who knows someone!’ when you can’t conceive of the actual system, you lack the analysis of class—you just flail around finding all these “suspicious” connections

    imagine someone doing a murder wall with feudalism like this pepe-silvia the duke of antwerp is married to the daughter of the count of gelre, and the counts of gelre–who is their overlord? yes the prince of Orange, who’s married to guess who, a COUSIN of the Emperor! wake up sheeple, there’s a continent wide group of powerful people sharing familial & political ties who are conspiring to keep us down! or to blame whomever, doing a little line to a jewish creditor one of them used to blame the jews, use the imperial connection to prophesize a holy roman new world order, use all these people’s third sons/brothers in the church to say the pope is running it…

      I mean, that’s literally feudalism.

        of course it is, im mocking the idea it’s secret and focusing on networks of individuals instead of the system. these people literally wore crowns
