There has been three pieces of work which i consider breaking the ASB factor.
An Independent in 2000 , where someone whose location of birth is never known, somehow gets into the presidency, and magically makes all the world's problems go away.
America suddenly being in bed with Russia, even after the cold war? What else, an ex-KGB officer being president of Russia, with a distrust of America.
Somehow, even with internet being used more frequently earlier, i do not see Bill cooper or Alex Jones making an EVEN bigger fuss than OTL about 9/11. And how does the author get round Loose change and Terrorstorm? He just say "liberty", and the truth movement vanishes.
Let us be honest, the Truth movement would be EVEN bigger than OTL, and Edwards may be impeached. How many views did Loose Change get OTL? >100 million. MPs even considered showing it in parliament. Picture hundreds of videos with Loose change amounts of viewers, earlier than Loose Change or Terrorstorm OTL.
He also has the UN Arrest saddam. But that would take ALL the security council's approval. And France, Russia or China would NOT approve (they sold saddam the majority of his hardware in the 80s, not America or Britain). They also somehow have afghanistan turning into a magical utopia almost overnight.
As well as that, Space being neglected for 40 years suddenly getting an asteroid, even though all spaceships are grounded after columbia?
What else? China not vetoing every un resolution against zimbabwe, sudan, iraq, etc. Somehow, Edwards magically gets high quality american goods even though all factories were outsourced to china.
Ron Paul as secretary of the treasury yet the FEDERAL RESERVE is still online?
Turkey giving the Kurds independence?
All fo North America suddenly wanting to join the USA? Especially Canada?
All of europe joining? Kazakhstan joining Russia?
Taiwan joining China?
America cutting off money to israel?
texas abolishing the death penalty, with George W Bush still governor?
sorry about that, i just had to vent my spleen.
