    The Glowing Dream: A history of Socialist America

    Okay that sounds interesting. And speaking of revolutions I don't predict an American revolution until at least around WWI, support of the SLP is high but not that high yet and revolutions typically require a spark of some kind and mass mobilization against the wishes of the working class or a...

    The Glowing Dream: A history of Socialist America

    Hi there, first time reading this TL (just finished binging it). So far I'm really enjoying it, and as for that election, talk about barely scraping through with just one EV. McKinley's a lucky SOB given everything that's happened. Let's see if his luck holds up or if he's still have an...

    Yeah, Nixon is actually Khrushchev in this analogy.

    That was kinda my intent, to showcase how much 60 years of communism might make some people unrecognizable from OTL. On the Reds! Discord server there's a popular common headcanon that ALT Uwe Boll is a great filmmaker.

    Maybe just have ITTL Part 2 focus entirely on the future, like expanding Act 1 of OTL Part 2 into a whole film with a lot more detailed examination of future Hill Valley and a lot more involved plan to save Marty's children.

    Another well done re-contextualization of an OTL film. Should finally get around to finishing my version of Independence Day.

    DBWI: Reagan faces Mondale in 1984

    I literally cannot tell the difference between those two corporate twats. Mondale would've lost just as badly as Hart did if not even harder. I'd love to know how Jesse Jackson would've performed against Reagan, he was basically the Bernie Sanders of the 80s.

    "Where Are We Going This Time": The Golden Age of Science Fiction

    I'd love to see both happen. Maybe Generation X done right and actually taking off and a D&D series set in the Planescape (a fantasy political thriller set around the factions) or Spelljammer (fantasy Star Trek) settings would probably be a huge hit.

    "Where Are We Going This Time": The Golden Age of Science Fiction

    If I may slightly nitpick your decision to make Neil Gaiman showrunner, it would make more sense to have Briggs be the showrunner (given how the storyline and companion are conceived by him) for this season with Gaiman hired as a staff writer to eventually succeed him, while Gary Russell handles...

    "Where Are We Going This Time": The Golden Age of Science Fiction

    I can already tell that this version of DS9 would be better than OTL without Rick Berman weighing down the franchise.
