  1. AHC: Black Dominated Communist CSA

    Das Kapital is a very long, somewhat obscure, technical volume on economics. I don't think it's going to have the effect you think it will have.
  2. WI: Anarchism more influential than Marxism

    No, my reference to left-anarchism does not imply that a right anarchism existed in the 19th century. I was making the distinction because such a distinction exists today, and that distinction seemed to be creating confusion for various people. Considering that right anarchism was not an actual...
  3. WI: Anarchism more influential than Marxism

    To be fair, there were people who right anarchists claim as their predecessors - Lysander Spooner, for example. But yeah, mostly what Jello Biafra said. Libertarians love to steal terms that historically belonged to leftists and then get pissed off when leftists contunue to use them (like the...
  4. WI: Anarchism more influential than Marxism

    American anarchists were leftists. The image of the "bomb-throwing anarchist" originates from (well, doesn't originate, but was solidified during) the First Red Scare. Anarchism in the first part of the twentieth century was primarily associated with the I.W.W. (the Industrial Workers of the...
  5. WI: Anarchism more influential than Marxism

    Left anarchism (which is the original anarchism, and the only one of real relevance for the 19th century) does not describe a state of no rules (which is somewhat closer to right anarchism) - it describes "workers' self management," which essentially means that workers are not beholden to employers.
  6. AHC: 9/11 Never Happened.

    Would have. Not would of.
  7. How would the USSR survive to the present day?

    Why would getting rid of Stalin allow the USSR to survive longer? Without Stalin's industrialization programs, the USSR would have been steamrolled by Germany.
  8. What would the people of TL191 think of OTL?

    Which wars were these?
  9. 9/11 Doesn't Happen

    Guys, you realize that the butterfly effect refers to weather phenomena?
  10. Challenge: Make your home town a capital city

    I feel like I'm in a privileged position, being a Philadelphian and all...
  11. So, I watched [i]The Birth of a Nation[/i] last night...

    Um, no it's not. Intolerance is considered by many film critics to be one of the best movies of all time. (I've never seen it.)
  12. Map Thread VIII

    The location of Philadelphia on your map is inaccurate.
  13. DBWi: Larry David stays in comedy

    OOC: Best. Thread. Ever.
  14. What do people think of the book Lies my Teacher told me by James W.Loewen

    I think it's very pertinent to note that textbooks can vary vastly from state to state. For example.
  15. Map Thread VIII

    A Central Power victory scenario has Britain gaining a German colony? :confused:
  16. What do people think of the book Lies my Teacher told me by James W.Loewen

    His insistence that the Americas were settled by West African Phoenician colonists or some such was amusing.
  17. Map Thread VIII

    I believe that the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland does not exist and my family and friends support me in this. There that is my belief and I shan't argue further.
  18. Possible Political Parties in the Confederate States of America

    A fascist corporation is not the same as a capitalist corporation; a fascist corporation is analogous to a guild.
  19. Create Socialist Monarchies. As many as possible.

    No; Marx wanted to liquidate the other classes, i.e., cause the other classes to cease to exist as social groups, not exterminate them in the sense of execution to a man. Of course, liquidation can mean mass murder, but it is not defined as mass murder. I have no idea where you got the race...
  20. Plausibility Check: Soviets annexing Eastern Europe Post WW2

    Would it have been possible for the Soviet Union to directly annex some or all of the states that fell within its sphere of influence post-World War 2? Could we see a Polish SSR, or even a German SSR? I assume that there'd be strong western opposition; could this provoke the Western Allies into...
