Does the writer think Vikings didn’t massacre people of different faiths? Torture people? Kill supposed witches? Suppress peasant revolts? It was the Dark Ages - EVERYONE was doing all the things you’re clutching your pearls about. They had to. Let a peasant revolt succeed and your nation falls to ruin. They’re objectively not good things. This doesn’t make the nobility good of course but don’t view an ancient revolt in the same lens as 1776 or whatever your leftist fantasy is. If those peasants get power, they’ll be murderous.
