    telling that all of these are reactionary daydreams and fantasies, and there’s no progressive alternatives offered or discussed. Here are some of mine:

    What if Lincoln had picked a radical abolitionist as his VP and after his assassination there was a massive anti-southern aristocracy crackdown to enforce reconstruction?

    What if Kruschev didn’t win the power struggle and instead Molotov did? What if the sino-soviet split never happened because Kruschev didn’t get into power and immediately start shitting on and dismantling socialist achievement?

    What if Stalin didn’t stop at Berlin? What if the USSR discovered nukes before the west?

    What if Lenin was not shot and didn’t have health complications resulting from that?

    What if the Spartacus Revolt was successful and the German Revolution joined with the USSR?

    What if Napoleon defeated the British at Waterloo? What if Napoleon allied with the Haitians and revolutionaries of the new world instead of turning them into enemies? What if he supported a Haitian-African American take-over of the Louisiana territories?
