    New Deal Coalition Retained Pt II: World on Fire

    Yeah, invade Russia with a bunch of fucking Nazis in your Army. The Russians/Soviets would go nuclear. Literally.

    New Deal Coalition Retained Pt II: World on Fire

    Except you haven't. Often you are lazy & stereotypical in your representation of people, places and cultures. You try and represent this as some magnificent magisterial magnum opus, but compared to say, The Bloody Man, Malê Rising, Fight And Be Right, The Anglo-American Nazi War, To Hell With...

    I really don't like Nazis, or racists, or bad writing, or mis-representation of historical figures, etc, etc.

    The man's great qualities were only matched by his multitude of incredibly weird & petty flaws.

    As has been pointed out both in and outside this thread, that isn't what happened.

    There's ideological stances and then there's "You know, Apartheid South Africa and Rhodesia weren't that bad and Nazi war criminals are redeemable".

    Except A) in universe he's an old man with no high command experience whose appointment would piss off Germany's allies and B) out of universe the author has repeatedly made dodgy updates with obvious ideological stances. So there's that.

    I'm pretty sure West Germany wouldn't fall because they don't employ a former WAR CRIMINAL who never rose above LC as a Field Marshal. It's a grotesque thing in a TL full of them.

    There's desperation and then there's aged Nazi war criminal.

    New Deal Coalition Retained Pt II: World on Fire

    The man was a war criminal and here's he is being treated as a hero. It's disgusting. Redeemed?! Considering all the work he did with far right organisations I'd doubt it very much.

    So we're not going to talk about the Nazi war criminal then?

    Joachim Peiper?!! I mean putting a more then 70 year old literal Nazi war criminal in charge of an invasion of Poland is very fucking dubious both in and out of story.

    2018 Turtledoves - Best Cold War to Contemporary Timeline Poll FINAL

    I'd rather have a slow series of deliberate thought out updates which are good and make sense. I'd much rather have that instead of horseshit being sprayed at my eyeballs.

    It's a globe spanning timeline nominated for a Turtledove. It's going to be scrutinised as such.

    And not to mention the other weird shit, like the profoundly uncomfortable implications of Neo-Incan terrorists practising human sacrifice.

    2018 Turtledoves - Best Cold War to Contemporary Timeline Poll FINAL

    Your argument shows you know nothing about Mandela or South Africa. If you actually took the time to examine primary source material, you'll see that the CIA in the 70s briefed Carter that, as well armed and prosperous as white South Africa was, that it would take a hell of a lot for them to...

    2018 Turtledoves - Best Cold War to Contemporary Timeline Poll FINAL

    Dude, you have one of the most ardent critics/attackers of Apartheid coming to accept it. It's so out of character it's Mandela becoming Faux Mandela. It's ridiculous. I'll also note that @RyanF didn't call you a racist.

    I do hope you win, and fwiw I'll be getting Presidential on my Kindle for my Birthday.

    2018 Turtledoves - Best Cold War to Contemporary Timeline Poll FINAL

    Rumsfeldia got a lot of criticism for going so weird compared to it's predecessor. Plausibility is one thing. Your TL is frankly poorly researched, often bigoted, and treats actual historical people in entirely stupid ways, or makes them act in entirely stupid ways. You've not pushed the...
