glorious 25th makes me think again about that one idea i once had for a discworld spinoff set in the future that would deal with the natural conclusion to the industrial revolution arc: communism comes to discworld
#posts by me
#this should happen in a time after vetinari it'd be a bit too much for him
#let him peacefully die at his desk and then say ten or so years later we're ready to roll
#i'm thinking it should feature a grownup young sam. he should make a new friend with a lot to say about why the economy is that way
#that's right young sam becomes engels
#idk. the industrial revolution arc especially the one abt trains is very. hm. yeah the train is a magnificent invention
#and it all starts out wonderful with well-intentioned men at the helm like harry king and even moist
#men who make sure the railway workers are provided for
#but we can't always rely on good men to be in charge. i'm sure pratchett knew this
#and if he'd had more time he could have handled things with more nuance/i really believe he was just starting out with the whole theme
#i don't think pratchett would have given us commie arc he wasn't THAT much of a leftist
#but i'm sure he wouldn't have stopped at ''but in this world the railway baron is NICE!''
#if the industrial revolution on the disc goes anything like the one in the real world. a labor movement becomes necessary
#vetinari and his five handpicked good dudes can't keep the common people safe forever
