A Family in a London Slum Listens as a modern day 16 year old explains how things are worse now than then because a friend heard about Walden on TikTok (1880s)

From Jacob Riis' "How the Other Half Lives" which was an early photojournalism investigation into the slums of London New York.

(I know, not PugJesus. I'm confused.)

I've seen a few times on Lemmy where people make ridiculous claims that life now is just as bad or worse than they were then. These are some of the silliest, most privileged nonsense I've read in awhile.

Rant over.

Thanks for the correction, NY not London.
