    If I had a guess when the Kennedy conspiracy theories really took off it would be when Jack Ruby offed Lee Harvey Oswald.

  3. WI: Frank Church assassinated during 1975 investigations

    I was thinking of Squeaky Fromme picking a different target would cause the most eyebrow raising, especially with speculation of Manson being tied to MKULTRA as a lab rat.

  4. WI: Frank Church assassinated during 1975 investigations

    None that I know of, but the committee hearings were very much on the public radar and they did a lot to discredit the intelligence services with American liberals, a fairly strong distrust that pretty much continued until investigations into Trump’s associations with Russia began. At which...

  7. Would Canada no longer recognize French as an official language if Quebec successfully seceded in 1980 or 1995?

  8. WI Leningrad Nuclear Plant instead of Chernobyl

    I agree that part isn’t unique to the soviets, it’s all too common in capitalist societies. What was a direct result of the Soviet system (although not unique to it either) was the fatal design flaw being hidden purposefully to the point that the emergency stop button is basically turned into a...

  9. WI Leningrad Nuclear Plant instead of Chernobyl

    Pretty much. So let's say by laws of probability the same circumstances come to fruition in Leningrad instead of Chernobyl. It's not out of the question really. If it can happen in one RBMK reactor it could happen in another, as the issues that caused it were systemically widespread in the...

  10. WI Leningrad Nuclear Plant instead of Chernobyl

    Leningrad Nuclear Plant uses the same RBMK design, with the same flaws that Chernobyl had. So what if the circumstances of the Chernobyl accident occurred at the Leningrad plant instead.

  16. Plausibility: Venetian Colony in America

    Would it be possible for the Venetian Republic to establish an American colony. If not Venice could any other Italian state do it? And where would be the best location for a thriving Italian colony?

    What if she fled westward instead, and eventually settled in the Bundesrepublik?

  18. Rosa Luxemburg in the DDR

    If Rosa Luxemburg survived the Spartacist uprising and fled to the USSR. If she survived the World War II, would she have been in line for a leadership position in East Germany?

  19. WI Tito and Stalin have each other Assassinated

    Who is Tito’s most likely successor at that stage?

  20. WI Tito and Stalin have each other Assassinated

    The enmity between these two is well known and Stalin had allegedly sent assassins to deal with Tito before. So what if during the informbiro era they both send agents to kill the other one. And both succeed with the mission. What happens next?
