> But the solution was to revolt against the king.
most revolts were triggered by someone else (a rich lord) wanting to be king. The peasants participating in the revolt are simply either lied to, or were promised they would reap the benefits and rise above their station.
The real solution was the black plague, which created labour shortages, and gave the remaining peasants bargaining power.
