  1. Reds fanfic

    What is it like to read a newspaper in the UASR? In the OTL Soviet Union and and present day North Korea, newspapers are usually full of Marxist jargon with dogmatic references to the corrupt imperialists. I imagine newspapers under very left-wing organizations would be like that, but would a...

  2. New Deal Coalition Retained: A Sixth Party System Wikibox Timeline

    Buckley seems a lot like Ed Koch: when OTL, the transit workers when on strike in 1980, Ed Koch was like "Motherfuckers, you still have to go to work, even if the subways aren't running." Whereas Koch was a "liberal with sanity", Buckley seems to be a conservative with creativity.

  3. Twilight of the Red Tsar

    What matters to the average Chinese is not how "brave" Mao was. He couldn't win a war, he couldn't protect Chinese from Stalin's evil, he couldn't put food on the table, he couldn't stop an epidemic. Mao failed China is every possible way. That's how Mao will be remembered, as a failure in...

    AH.com Polchat- opinion of FBU and UASR foreign policy

  5. Reds fanfic

    I'm confused. I thought the UASR had a drug policy that didn't involve excessive prohibition.

  6. Twilight of the Red Tsar

    Yep, the ITTL post-Cold War is going to be even more complicated than OTL. Did Tshombe take control of all of Congo? Whatever happened to Mobutu?

  7. Reds fanfic

    Man the world of Reds seems even crazier than our own. I was so used to the ATL Cold War just being capitalist and communist. But because the Cold War is so different, there's new political issues, with so much intrigue and shifting webs of alliances. It is hard to make sense of it all.

    As well as one the reasons why UpNorth, or someone like him would exist.

  9. Reds fanfic

  10. Reds fanfic

    That's what my character is for. UpNorth is a Canadian, descended from refugees of America's second civil war, as thus has a unique view of the UASR his classmates don't share. Again, this makes him a target from both the right and the left. I plan for UpNorth to contribute more to the...

    No. They had them a long time ago. Rumsfeld considered them harmless fools.

  14. Twilight of the Red Tsar

    Or better yet, if it was recorded, so all young historians can enjoy the sound of Nixon's rants.

  15. Reds fanfic

    To be fair, I did try to imagine a historical event that would take these massive changes into account. In "What is Family?", you have an older generation shellshocked by all the changes, while a new generation is pushing the boundaries of family relationship beyond, creating a historic custody...

  16. Twilight of the Red Tsar

    And if the revolts in Eastern Europe continue throughout 1961, an outreach to Russia would be political suicide. Russia is King George, and Eastern Europe would be the 13 colonies. Side note: I wonder what Richard Nixon would do if the Soviet Union collapsed after he left office, and his...

    Not now. In real life, I have homework to do, and not a lot of time. Let's save it until next week.

  18. Reds fanfic

    Maybe, through AH.com, the other posters could gradually open her eyes to how terrible her situation is. Just a thought.

  19. Reds fanfic

    I have no issue with that. None whatsoever. Besides a conflict between my character and yours would be a lot more interesting. A war between two decent people over historiography beats an anti-intellectual war on dumb trolls and fanatics. My character questions the UASR and its goals all the...

  20. Reds fanfic

    Well, again, does your character say nasty things to only objectively nasty people, or can his blood boil and he can consider my character an "evil bourgeois coward", even when ol' UpNorth hasn't said anything cruel. My character can deal with an argument based on historical fact. And he can...
