Brett Hodnett<p>If <a href="https://c.im/tags/civilization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>civilization</span></a> began again from scratch, what kinds of societies would evolve next time? <a href="https://c.im/tags/Communal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Communal</span></a>, <a href="https://c.im/tags/capitalist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>capitalist</span></a>. <a href="https://c.im/tags/theocratic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>theocratic</span></a>, <a href="https://c.im/tags/meritocratic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>meritocratic</span></a>, <a href="https://c.im/tags/secular" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>secular</span></a>, <a href="https://c.im/tags/egalitarian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>egalitarian</span></a>, <a href="https://c.im/tags/exploitive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>exploitive</span></a>? Societies are usually a combination of these types, but do they always combine as we expect them to? Are our choices about the type of <a href="https://c.im/tags/society" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>society</span></a> we create completely up to us, or are we constrained by the environment and circumstance?

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History January 21, 1525: Conrad Grebel, Felix Manz and George Blaurock founded the Swiss Anabaptist movement by baptizing each other and breaking a thousand-year tradition of church-state union. The Anabaptists were considered Radical Reformers. They preached against hate, killing, violence, taking oaths, participating in use of force or any military actions and against participation in civil government. They also believed in separation of church and state. However, some Anabaptists went even further, like those in the Munster Commune, who called for the absolute equality of man in all matters, including the distribution of wealth. They called upon the poor of the region to join them in sharing all the wealth of the town. Many also believed in polygamy and free love. Not surprisingly, both the Roman Catholics and the nascent Lutherans persecuted them heavily. This history is wonderfully portrayed in the epic novel, “Q” by the Italian fiction collective, Luther Blissett. </p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/peasants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>peasants</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/protestant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>protestant</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Reformation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Reformation</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LutherBlissett" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LutherBlissett</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/anabaptist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>anabaptist</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/equality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>equality</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/freelove" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>freelove</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/communal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>communal</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/polygamy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>polygamy</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/lutheran" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lutheran</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/novel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>novel</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fiction</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/historicalfiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>historicalfiction</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>author</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>writer</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/collective" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>collective</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/freelove" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>freelove</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstadon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstadon</span></a></span></p>
