Tehran and Kabul, both progressive cities for their time to not represent the country as a whole. If anything, the more conservative rural values were imposed on the city folks, which is usually something that happens the other way around and more peacefully.

ONLY THE NOBLE ONES SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO REPRODUCE; NOBLE PERSONS ARE NECESSARY TO COMBAT THE IGNOBLE ONES WHOM NEVER STOP REPRODUCING.

BEFORE ESCAPING THE WORLD, ONE MUST IMPROVE IT, TAKING IT TO ITS ULTIMACY, AND DEFEAT THE FORCES OF "EVIL", OBLITERATING THEM; IT IS THE NOBLE ONE'S DUTY TO ERADICATE "EVIL" BEFORE ASCENDING; TO ESCAPE THE WORLD, LEAVING IT IN DARKNESS, WOULD BE DISGRACEFUL AND DISHONOURABLE; ONE SHOULD NOT AVOID STRUGGLE, BUT TRANSCEND IT.

Back in the 80s me and my terminally ill son wrote a letter to Carl Sagan asking how long humans will live. We expected a simple letter but unbelievably enough he recorded a casette tape and sent it to us in the mail, I've been listening to it for a long time but I was afraid the quality would get worse over time so I decided to digitize it.

So please enjoy this never before heard audio of Mr. Sagan.

Anyone here a fan of alternate history? I'm really wasn't until my history teacher told us about this writer and bunch of crazy alternate history books he wrote. White Supremacist going back in time and giving General Lee AK-47's, Aliens invading earth in the middle of WW2, the South gaining independence leading to a American-German alliance during WW1 and trench warfare in Kentucky. It's not high art but it can be fun.

For stories more grounded, try Peter G. Tsouras's Dixie Victorious. It contains 10 essays from 10 different historians on how the South could have won the war. My favourite is when Lee supports Cleburne's proposal to arm the slaves in exchange for their freedom.
>>
>>2417615
I have some issues with his writing, but I find it fun to think about the scenarios he presents myself, do my own research, and come to my own conclusion. It's a fun exercise, and can lead you to finding out new things.
>>
>>2417628
The thing that annoys me about so much of alternate history is that it usually involves some kind of ridiculous nonsense. This is exactly what I want; down to Earth scenarios which are actually plausible.

What is the closest example of an anarchist society?
57 posts and 7 images submitted.
>>
>>2417519
Anarchist Catalonia, it lasted for about a year iirc. From the rose-tinted classes of people recounting it, it sounded like a paradise. People would arrive at work, decide what quotas they needed to reach, agree on working conditions, and get paid in scrips issued by their factory union. Each scrip represented one hour worked, and they could be traded for the value of one hour of goods or services elsewhere.

I can't speak to the practical problems of that, because no one narrated on any of them, but on the political side, justice was usually mob rule and very touch and go, international diplomacy was impossible since there was no central authority on the matter, and organizing an effective army, particularly in the middle of a civil war, was nearly impossible since no one wanted to swear loyalty to any sort of command structure because it violated their ideals. Eventually the Anarchists were overcome by Russian backed Communists who were far more ordered than they.

How does Latin America view these two countries now? Is there tension, or do the countries just not give a shit anymore?

we're usually

a)too busy pretending we wuz natives n shiet to look into our Spaniard roots

b)too busy blaming all our ailments on more relevant countries

c)too busy to think of anything but ourselves
>>
I can only somewhat say based on my conversations with Mexicans about traveling to other places and their thoughts on Spain.

Most seem to think it's a neat place, but unlike most white people in the US that talk about their immigrant grandparents or somesuch from different places of Europe, Latin Americans don't always seem to have that same line of thinking, at least not to the same degree. I would assume this is because they're racially distinct from their European ancestry compared to others who might've only been here a generation or two and were brought up by parents who were both the same race, but this seems to apply to "blancos" as well (Latin Americans with almost no native American admixture).

This is from talking with naturalized Mexican Americans though who didn't retain a lot of customs from their parents, nor can most even speak Spanish, so sentiments might be different actually within them.
