Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

serfs are peasants
but not all peasants are serfs
Weren't peasants just farmers who owned their agricultural property rather than bonded-to-the-land workers ?
it was anyone who made their living from manual labour farming it comes from french for country dweller
Kulaks and their labourers were both peasants for example
