semantics. you know what I was saying.

dead little girls in coal mines? there are dead little girls in coal mines instead of prices, or the normal dead people of all ages and genders on the streets I have to fucking walk past every day.

I don't think I understand. When things are good, there are dead little girls in coal mines?

russian revolution. nevermind.

Ah, I'm unfortunately not familiar with that one. I only know the Guillotines from the French revolution, where they indicated the worst of times.

[–] primrosepathspeedrun@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

no, they were the end of the worst of times. the fact that guillotines were a massive improvement is an indicator of how fucking monstrous the centuries of white terror had been.

Ah, so it's a matter of contrast? The guillotines are a sign of good times, relative to the even worse times before?
