Ah, I had mercifully forgotten that one. That's the one where the northern leadership began every morning with a communal bowl of lead paint chips for breakfast, right?
I need a link otherwise a lot of my own work is for nothing.He also started a 'Maryland joins the CSA' TL that was 99% pure Confedabooism.
never heard of that before, listened to the first episode, and it's pretty cool! good stuff dudeHe clearly seems to have looked into the "It can happen here" podcast but missed the whole point of the fucking work, and warped it all to fit his worldview. Pretty sad considering how good the podcast was.

This is a relief because (1) my title is from a better line of "Maryland, My Maryland" and (2) he doesn't know what he's talking about.
Are you implying that the United Confederacy of Heartland Dunces wouldn’t crush the decadent, anti-gun DemoRAT cities in a matter of months, if not weeks?Been listening to that podcast Japhy mentioned - now I'm really wishing there was a good TL about a 2nd American Civil War out there.
I've literally been thinking about Police patrols on the interstates with Bearcats since he mentioned that.Been listening to that podcast Japhy mentioned - now I'm really wishing there was a good TL about a 2nd American Civil War out there.
The Autonomous City of Portland getting bombed to hell and back by drones of all things is such a terrifying and interesting idea, there's a lot of great material in there (really the only problem I have with the pod is that he seems sincerely convinced that there's going to be a civil war which is pretty dumb, but OTOH it's not that big of an issue).I've literally been thinking about Police patrols on the interstates with Bearcats since he mentioned that.
Also you're going to love his other show, Behind the Bastards.
I think he's right tbh. Especially that for some folks it's already started.The Autonomous City of Portland getting bombed to hell and back by drones of all things is such a terrifying and interesting idea, there's a lot of great material in there (really the only problem I have with the pod is that he seems sincerely convinced that there's going to be a civil war which is pretty dumb, but OTOH it's not that big of an issue).
I might check it out soon, this has been A1 so far.

1 Confederate is equal to 10 Damyankees.
Confederate Will is superior to Northern Steel.
Well there's always been nutcases thinking that the next bloody civil conflict is just about to happen going back to the 50's, and nothing this guy has actually said so far has successfully made the case that a civil war will actually happen. He's great on going in on what an American civil war would look like, however, which is the focus of the show so that's good.I think he's right tbh. Especially that for some folks it's already started.
Dudes a Reporter who's got extensive experience in Iraq, but you're free to disregard something you haven't even listened to.Hands up all those people, especially the writers of such stuff, who have actually seen a civil war.
I'd personally recommend it, and while I am far from any expert on civil wars, it was well-researched and put together - a fair chunk of the first episode is pushing against the idea that a second civil war would be like the first, e.g. a group of states collectively deciding to just secede instead of beginning like the Syrian Civil War did.Fair enough. I made an assumption that was unjustified, which was wrong.
That said, I've come across altogether too many: "It's going to be a civil war" type reports that have clearly been written by someone without a clue. Apparently not in this case.

Curiously, I'm just writing up an article on the French Army mutiny of 1917.
He even warns you up front that this timeline is going to be a cruel and awful scourge—that’s literally the title of the damn thing. (When an author uses the phrase “Democrat Party” twelve times in the same paragraph, you know you’re in for a steaming heap of biased hackery). That being said, a few posts down, the tone of the narrative gets oddly anti-Republican and anti-Trump. It’s explicitly stated that the Republican Party becomes dominated by white supremacist figures during the 2030s, and Trump is specifically named as one of those figures. The author even commits the cardinal sin of criticizing the Founding Fathers for incorporating racist ideals into the US body politic.
I also don’t care enough to find out, but it’s definitely a bit confusing.
