Do you know about Upton Sinclair's novel, in which he predicted that a world war was going to break out, but be halted by international worker resistance?

I think that the book where Upton Sinclair presages the start of WWI but imagines that it will be halted by striking workers is "The Industrial Republic" -- https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/64373

people lined up and burned books of bach and mozart

Ok, what would have happened in Rome if someone went back and murdered Lucius Vorenus & Titus Pullo when they were babies???

the financial crash absolutely happened earlier lol

We’re joined by Daniel Bessner, co-host of the American Prestige podcast, for a remarkably focused and thoughtful Will-less episode. We discuss Trump’s recent statement about Israel “owning” congress, Josh Hawley’s thoughts on masculinity, and the Lincoln Project’s bungled attempt at a false-flag operation to make a Republican appear more racist. Then Matt and Danny tell us about their new Chapo mini-series “Hinge Points,” which will explore some great historical “what-if” moments. Hinge Points will be posting on our Patreon for all subscribers on Fridays, starting 11/5.
