The 1800s were an incredibly dynamic century so enough with the bougie shows about royalty and aristocrats. Gimme a show about the factory workers in the midst of the Industrial Revolution and their fight for labor rights.
I want to see workers suffering under the capitalist’s yoke, reading theory, organizing in secret, striking and fighting. Some rich character drama in the factions that don’t want to lose their jobs by unionizing, or in finding rats among them, or facing against the police.
Give me that worker’s struggle drama instead of yet another goddamn aristocracy show
The Bourgeoisie media will try to forever pretend that the bourgeoisie are the only real humans. Sometimes they will toss in working class people for a narrative, but its not unlike you tossing in some basil to garnish a dish once you are done cooking it. The dish is done, and the garnish is an afterthought.
fiction that accurately portrays the lower classes is flat out depressing as FUCK, that’s part of why stories are rarely told about them. also our lives are a hell of a lot more monotonous and we never get to do any of the exciting or interesting things that the kings rich get to do.
bruh nah, our lives are just as interesting and complex. don’t give in to that kind of thinking.
They might make some shit like that, but the message will be “unions/poors bad” and the hero is the capitalist pig “industrialist” that saves the poor girl or some shit like that.
Imagine this: Die Hard, but the Christmas party is a picket line bad guys are Pinkertons.
come to the coast homestead, we’ll get together, have a few laughs
