who the fuck is still thinking about john mccain fucking hell
Wasn't there some McCain faildaughter on some
talk show that had the credentials of "MY FAAATHER" and whose conversations were varying versions of "MY FAAATHER?" I'm sure she's still at it somewhere.I remember his campaign tried to brand him as a 'maverick' when he was one of the biggest conservative dullards around
it's funny because it worked with the base, the problem was it was the base of the democrats instead lol
telling that all of these are reactionary daydreams and fantasies, and there's no progressive alternatives offered or discussed. Here are some of mine:
What if Lincoln had picked a radical abolitionist as his VP and after his assassination there was a massive anti-southern aristocracy crackdown to enforce reconstruction?
What if Kruschev didn't win the power struggle and instead Molotov did? What if the sino-soviet split never happened because Kruschev didn't get into power and immediately start shitting on and dismantling socialist achievement?
What if Stalin didn't stop at Berlin? What if the USSR discovered nukes before the west?
What if Lenin was not shot and didn't have health complications resulting from that?
What if the Spartacus Revolt was successful and the German Revolution joined with the USSR?
What if Napoleon defeated the British at Waterloo? What if Napoleon allied with the Haitians and revolutionaries of the new world instead of turning them into enemies? What if he supported a Haitian-African American take-over of the Louisiana territories?
What if temperatures stayed stable in the Paleocene, resulting in the dawn of civilization around paleolake megachad?
Everybody has a really pronounced jawline, nothing else changes.
What if the Spartacus Revolt was successful and the German Revolution joined with the USSR?
unironically I believe we would all already be living under DOTPs by now
WW2 would have looked very different indeed. Socialists vs. Imperialists instead of the weird mishmash of socialists + imperialists vs. newer more vicious imperialists. The victory there would have been a victory for socialism instead of a descent into cold war against an untouched US.
What if Napoleon defeated the British at Waterloo?
He would be defeated in the next battle. He had already won at Ligny and Quatre Bras, and it didn't bring him a strategic victory, and neither would a victory at Waterloo.
Whoops was thinking of Trafalgar
The Nazis literally could not have ever won WW2 and anyone who argues against that is way too vested in learning about Nazi campaigns specifically
I think it's the closest you could get to historical determinism. The only way for the Nazis to win was for them to not be Nazis. They lost the war the moment they started it. Germany was doomed even if they never went to war because fascist economics will demand that they do. The whole thing was a fuck because it was fundamental to their ideology.
There's some scenarios where they could have maybe gotten a draw (like forming an alliance with the US and UK to invade the USSR), but it would have still left them worse off than...not being nazis.
forming an alliance with the US
Probably best case scenario for chuds. They're both ideologically aligned anyways, and there's a chance they figure out how to make a nuke before the Soviets
The same modern bazingas that believe billionaire vampires will personally invent miracle tech that'll undo the consequences of their own actions also tend to believe that nazi wunderwaffen was that close to turning everything around.
They won against France only because Allied generals thought it was a good idea to stick their neck into an obvious trap, and then German generals decided that they were absolute geniuses and could win whatever they want.
If the initial push into France fails I'm pretty sure the nazis are deeply fucked lmao. I suggest opening 13 more fronts, that always seems to work.
Alt History: Limitless possibilities, always how the Nazis can win
But Boogie1488 said le epic science was happening in Mengele's torture playgrounds!
Genre fiction writer here, 99% of genre fiction is fascist.
I learned that the hard way with my beta readers with my own work.
"Why is this so political? Can't it just be about a war with piloted robots?"
"The main character needs to have her naked body described in detail during a mandatory shower scene." (the character was a malnourished minor)
"This is a butchering of the Ramayana. I am insulted by this sloppy portrayal of it." (the Ramayana was mentioned, yes, but it's a total fascist wet dream of a story and I deliberately dunked on its ideals in favor of the much more nuanced, thoughtful, and worthwhile Mahabharata)
You are Hitler
I'd rather not
"You are Hitler..."
Inside of
there are Hitler particles. They are everywhere there, but are especially concentrated in "what if nazis win and le science victory amirite" Boogie1488 takes. 
They're aware John McCain died in 2018 right?
Here's how Hitler can still win!"Hear me out... what if Le Epic John McCain... was actually the Ghost of Kiev?"
I guess it is not a stretch for any of these people to imagine themselves as Hitler
The soviet union would have to not exist for the nazis to win, I think. Even without allied forces drawing german war materials away from the eastern front, there's no way they coulda beat the red army, I'm pretty sure.
Also though the nazis were gonna invade places that would bring them into conflict with the allies anyway, lol lmao
Ah yes, the Battle of France. Where you had that one general doing that maneuver.
Jesus Christ
