How will y'all deal with a good possibility of a liberal revolution coming 400 years early?

The peasant revolt of 1381 can be seen as another result of the Black Death.

Well, the last great outbreak of the black death was about 30 years before, so it was a bit of a delayed reaction! In fact, the peasant's revolt was in response to the imposition of a poll tax and the maner in which it was collected. The poll tax may have had its origins in the BD (need to get money after large proportion of tax payers wiped out).
