Medieval Europe had not "returned to barbarism", Moors also did bloodletting. Moors didn't have to reintroduce most of the things claimed here. Education was not made compulsory. Europeans had not stopped bathing, this also didn't result in plagues. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloodletting https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visigothic_Kingdom https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Ages_(historiography) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medieval_renaissances https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moors https://www.medievalists.net/2022/05/dark-ages/ https://time.com/5911003/middle-ages-myths/ https://www.getty.edu/news/no-such-thing-as-the-dark-ages/ https://www.discovermagazine.com/the-sciences/just-how-dark-were-the-dark-ages https://talesoftimesforgotten.com/2019/05/25/debunking-the-so-called-dark-ages/ https://www.historyhit.com/why-were-the-early-middle-ages-called-the-dark-ages/ https://going-medieval.com/2017/05/26/theres-no-such-thing-as-the-dark-ages-but-ok/ https://www.europeana.eu/en/blog/the-not-so-dark-middle-ages https://www.historytoday.com/back-dark-ages

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1701864050353721850

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
