Whats so bad about alternate history?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nothing necessarily. I just find it weird. I sometimes get video recommendations for "what if X" and can't not think it's a waste of mental energy.
And exception would be if such thought plays were contextualised with current issues like "X is happening right now, Y happened before and it was similar, let's look at how things could have developed and apply that to our situation so we can make the best decisions."

i mean its entertaining, like theres tons of media out there based on this. i really recommend watching the show For All Mankind, its an alternate history where the space race in the 60s never ended
