Adolf Hitler stands on a podium to great applause. His chaotic mind is racing as the crowd screams
out “Heil Hitler!”, a crowd made up of not just Germans, but various nationalities
that have fallen under his evil spell. The super-power of Germany is untouchable. There’s
no such thing as the Soviet Union anymore. The “great” of Great Britain is lying
in the mud. Millions are being executed while millions more are enslaved in Hitler’s labor
camps. There’s just one more thing to accomplish, and that’s annihilating the USA, to subdue
what Hitler regards as a low down, dirty “race of mongrels.”
He has won, and it’s hell on earth for many. We’ll get around to this stand-off with
the USA, but first, we need to know how Hitler pulled it off, this unbelievable victory in
Europe. Here we mix reality with fiction. As you know, at the start of the Second World
War in 1939, Hitler’s army, the Wehrmacht, devastated Poland. With its legion of Panzer
tanks and an incredibly efficient mobile infantry, the Poles were no match for the Germans. The
attack was like lightning, which is what the word “Blitzkrieg” is derived from.
In September, German bombs were dropped on the town of Luck, not just destroying buildings
but even killing kids on their way to school. This sent a message of what was to come. The
Polish pilot B. J. Solak noted, “The stench of burning and a brown veil of smoke filled
all the air around our town.” No one was spared.
The German air force, the Luftwaffe, rained hellfire down on Poland. Trains were seen
derailed from the tracks; kids screamed at the sight of the dead. It was a terror no
one could have expected, and so on September 3, Britain and France declared war on Germany.
Amazingly, France was beaten in just 6 weeks, and in time, something worrying occurred.
Surprisingly most of the French accepted the new Vichy government, one sympathetic to Nazi
ideology. Not many know that a large number of people in France endorsed Hitler’s hatred
towards the Jews. Bear this in mind as we go through this story today.
But by that time, Denmark, Norway, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg had already
been beaten by the Germans. It was as if the German soldiers were on steroids, which isn’t
far from the truth in view of their heavy use of the powerful methamphetamine, Pervitin.
And with Norway defeated, Hitler now also had access to heavy water, although not known
at the time, this is a key ingredient in the creation of the nuclear bomb. This was bad,
bad news. When France fell and the British were left scurrying for their lives on their
escape from Dunkirk, it looked as though the Germans were totally invincible.
These conquests so far meant tens of thousands of Germans killed and many more injured. France
itself had lost 50,000 men in the invasion, Britain 11,000, but now Germany had a massive
1.5 million prisoners of war. It would have been much worse had the Brits not had their
miracle at Dunkirk. Britain was at this point waiting for the
Battle of Britain. It was a frightening thing to imagine. Not many people thought this small
island nation could hold its own, but the fighting spirit still burned within Britain.
As a wounded British soldier named Paul Richey said when he was flown back to England from
France, he couldn’t imagine his country going the same way as France had.
In his own words, he said, “With my mind still filled with the blast and flame that
had shattered France, I was seized with utter disgust at the smug contentness enjoyed behind
the sea barrier.” Still, he worried about what was around the corner.
On June 18, 1940, Winston Churchill spoke at the House of Commons.
In his impeccable oratory style, he said, “I expect the Battle of Britain is about
to begin. Upon this battle depends the survival of Christian civilization. Upon it depends
our own British life…” He was probably right.
Churchill went on, “Hitler knows he will have to break us in this island or lose the
war…If we fail, then the whole world, including the United States, will sink into the abyss
of a new Dark Age.” He said that upon the defeat of Germany, men will say that this
was their “finest hour.” And take note, he said Hitler would go after
the USA. It was just a matter of time, according to this cigar-munching elitist, who admittedly,
was drunk and drugged up half the time. Still, he correctly envisioned the hell that Hilter
would unleash. That’s why Churchill was so against settling with Hitler. He was sure
at some point the furious Fuhrer would have Britain in shackles and take over its empire.
Hitler, WOULD, NOT, STOP, not until Nazi ideology pervaded the globe.
The Battle of Britain commenced. In the skies, British Hawker Hurricanes and Spitfires fought
it out with German Messerschmitt BF 109s.
The so-called dogfights were crazy, and many young pilots who went up didn’t come back
down, alive anyway. Here is how one spitfire pilot described a day at work, “We were
both flying in a tight circle. Just a little more and I’ll have him. Pressing the trigger
I waited expectantly for the 109 to explode. I’ve hit his wing.”
He was one of the lucky ones. Life expectancy for an RAF pilot during the war was a grim
thing indeed. 60 percent of operational airmen died, were injured, or became prisoners of
war. Around 51 percent of all RAF aircrew died.
Bombs from German Junkers rained down on strategic locations in England, with sirens blaring
on a regular basis during what the Brits called the “blitz.” It went on for eight months,
but the British down below were typically amenable to hardships. One woman wrote in
her diary, “I wonder what the pilots feel, after all, somebody loves them even if they’re
Nazis.” At some point, Hitler made the mistake of
withdrawing aircraft for Russia’s planned invasion in May 1941. That really was a mistake.
It turned out the Germans lacked a cogent strategic plan. The planes also often missed
their targets and British scientists were good at reading German signals and jamming
their radars. The British public showed fortitude, too.
A woman named Barbara Dixon wrote that she’d never even heard of Poland, but she’d do
anything to repel that “beast” of Hitler, who she said was trying to “blow us up,
or murder us in our beds.” Historians say attacking Britain was of the
great blunders Germany made in the war, with the next being the invasion of the Soviet
Union. Had Hitler focused all his strength on Britain and not at one point said, ok,
we’ll come back for you later, the Brits might have settled with Germany. Many people
in Britain wanted that. They didn’t think Hitler was as crazy as he turned out to be.
Hitler had many times expressed his liking for British culture, and he said unlike those
mongrels in America, Britain had a good “Aryan” culture. Prior to German propagandists criticizing
the British for their empire’s atrocities and their plutocrats living like kings while
the working class lived in slums, Hitler had some pretty good relations with certain British
politicians. Britain’s army was nothing compared to the
German army, and no one really expected them to hold their own in the skies. Even the US
ambassador in London, Joseph Kennedy, said Britain had no chance.
Despite 23,000 civilians dying and around 33,000 injured, with the German retreat confidence
was bolstered. It’s thought 1,000 RAF planes were shot down with about 544 Fighter Command
pilots losing their lives. Then with bombers and coastal guard losses, that added up to
1542 planes lost and another 1542 lives lost. The German Luftwaffe lost around 1,800 planes
and more than 2,500 pilots were killed. Across the pond, an American journalist wrote,
“Adolf Hitler met his first defeat in eight years in what might go down in history as
a battle as important as Waterloo or Gettysburg.” Winston Churchill uttered those now-famous
words, “Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.”
This bolstered confidence in the US, too, and elsewhere in the world. Germany wasn’t
invincible. It sent a strong message, and for Britain, at that time having the most
powerful navy in the world, it knew no Germans would be walking down its streets anytime
soon. But as we said, Hitler planned to come back
for Britain, just as soon as he had taken care of other matters, namely the Soviet Union.
The reason we’ve spent some time on this matter is that had Britain been soundly beaten
and backed down, the whole outcome of the war would have been different. With Britain
out of the war, Germany could have focused less time on one very formidable foe, in Europe,
in Asia, and in Africa. It would have also sent a strong message to
the Soviet Union, and to the United States. Remember, the US didn’t want to get involved
in a bloody European war. US citizens didn’t want their young men being shot to pieces
far from its now incredibly industrious shores. But in our alternative universe, let’s say
Germany did succeed in having air superiority over Britain. Germany might then have launched
Operation Sealion, the planned land invasion of Britain. This was not Hitler’s first
choice. He had been hoping for the British to accept his offer to back down out of the
war. This is what Hitler had said needed to happen
for that invasion to be successful. First, he said the RAF had to be “beaten down in
its morale and in fact, that it can no longer display any appreciable aggressive force in
opposition to the German crossing.” He then hoped the English Channel would be
swept of mines and if the British Navy was distracted with fighting in the North Sea
and the Mediterranean, it would make crossing the channel into England more achievable.
Apparently, even Hitler’s inner circle wasn’t keen on this idea, and if you read the writings
of contemporary historians, most will tell you he would have failed.
Field Marshall Gerd von Rundstedt suspected Hitler was just trying to bluff Britain into
pulling out of the war. He said by God, even Napoleon failed to invade Britain. The place
was a veritable fortress. The German navy, the Kriegsmarine, was no match for the British
Navy. It ruled the waves and had done so for years.
But in our scenario, Britain lost in the air. The morale of the military and the public
was very low. The British Navy, as Hitler wanted, was spread out. The German Navy fought
remarkably, better than expected, and before you could say “schadenfreude”, the powerful
British elites were foreseeing losing their empire while watching Panzer tanks make a
mess of that beautiful British grass. The country soon surrendered, just as France had.
Now Britain was finished, Hitler could certainly win the war.
With France and Britain subdued, and to our modern shame, many people in both countries
were now buying into Hitler’s Aryan rubbish. The Germans could now go full throttle at
the Soviet Union. Ok, back to real life.
Hitler had made a nonaggression pact with another tyrant, Joseph Stalin, but then he
invaded Russia anyway. Never trust the word of a tyrant. The German army, full of confidence,
was sure it would walk through Russia. They also thought they were doing the right thing,
as this 18-year German soldier named Henry Metelmann said:
“I accepted as natural that it was German duty for the good of humanity to impose our
way of life on lower races and nations, who, probably because of their limited intelligence,
would not quite understand what we were on about.”
Hitler hated Jews, but he was no fan of Slavs, either. His notion that most Germans were
pure Aryans was utterly ridiculous given centuries of the inter-mixing of people in northern
Europe. It was ridiculous full stop, but even so he was prepared to annihilate slavish people.
As for Communists, once he’d won the war in Russia they would either have to forfeit
their ideology or die. The many millions of Jews in the Soviet Union would be hunted down
and killed. As General Erich Hoepner said, “The war
with Russia is a vital part of the German people’s existence. It is the old fight
of German against the Slav, the defense of European culture against the Muscovite-Asiatic
flood, and the repulse of Jewish Bolshevism.” So, mark our words, the people of the Soviet
Union would have been spared no quarter, or at least those that fit into what Hitler described
as “lower races”. And while Joseph Stalin, by the time he died, had the blood of tens
of millions of people on his paranoid hands, his zero-tolerance to people not fighting
was one reason why Germany couldn’t defeat him.
The Soviets killed around 300,000 of their own soldiers for refusing to fight, fighting
badly, or going AWOL. People starved because of Stalin’s focus on building weaponry above
feeding his people. People even changed sides because they detested Stalin so much. But
if he hadn’t have been so bloody despotic, Germany might well have won.
For the invasion, Operation Barbarossa, Hitler deployed around 3.6 million troops, 2,700
aircraft, and 3,600 tanks, which was record-breaking in terms of European warfare. Stalin had 2.9
million troops, 8,000 aircraft and 11,000 tanks, but the Germans were superior in terms
of technology and general warfare. But let’s think, if Germany had just defeated
Britain in our fictional scenario, there would be a spring in the military’s step. They’d
also be making use of that excellent British arms industry.
For instance, in real life, Hitler had thousands of French prisoners of war slaving away in
its munitions industry, plus around 650,000 French civilian laborers, not to mention the
Vichy French fighting for Germany. Over in the USA, in real life again, many
people didn’t have much love for the Soviet Union. The famed American aviator Charles
Lindbergh said at the time, “I would a hundred times rather see my country ally herself with
Britain, or even Germany with all her faults, than the cruelty, the Godlessness, and the
barbarism of the Soviet Union.” There was more support for Nazism in the US
than you might think, hence Philip Roth’s alternative reality novel, “The Plot Against
America.”
The famed industrialist Henry Ford admired Nazi Germany, and he was for much of his life
very much antisemitic, showcased in the anti-Semitic books he published with titles such as “The
International Jew: The World’s Foremost Problem.”
Back to our alternate reality, with a British loss and the USA hardly coming to the rescue,
there is every chance that Germany could have won in Russia, especially if its ally – for
the short term anyway – Japan, would also have attacked Russia. Just think, with Britain
defeated, Japan wouldn’t have had to fight the country in Singapore, Hong Kong, and what
were then Malaya and Burma. We also have to remember the impact of all
the countries of the British empire that fought alongside Britain. Think about British India
and the massive impact it had on the war, or India alone, whose two and a half million
troops fought under British command. Think about Canada, which couldn’t have fought
on since it was a dominion of the British Empire. Or even Australia, who although didn’t
join the war effort right away, still provided the Brits with manpower and resources.
We understand this is overly simplistic, and we haven’t even discussed any country’s
atomic bomb research, but let’s just say after Britain fell, the invasion of Russia
went as Hitler planned. It was over within a year. This really could have happened had
things just been a bit different. What would the USA be thinking now after much
of Europe and some of Asia had fallen to Adolf Hitler and Japan?
As we said, Americans didn’t want to fight in a European war. William Calflin, the then
head of Harvard, said as much, one time stating, “Hitler’s going to win. Let’s be friends
with him.” Many people thought this way, but of course, they weren’t fully aware
of Hitler’s plans for world domination and the sheer ugliness of what he was capable
of. Still, the US had meddled in the war by freezing
assets and preventing Japan from getting the oil it needed to attempt to build its empire
during the war, and Japan didn’t much like this American interference.
The US wasn’t totally out of the war, lending weapons to Britain and helping in other ways,
all for a price of course. But then companies such as GM and Ford, IBM also sold what was
described as “useful war materials” to Germany. The US made hay while bombs spilled
down on Europe, coming out of the war much richer.
It might have stayed that way if Japan hadn’t launched that famous attack. Japan had hoped
that after attacking the U.S Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor, the US would revert to its
isolationist policies. In our alternate reality, the US had watched
on as Germany’s Operation Barbarossa was successful and Britain and France were a spent
force. In this case, had the Pearl Harbor attack happened, the US might well have not
retaliated. But then, had history been different, the US might not have interfered one bit and
the attack on Pearl Harbor wouldn’t have happened in the first place.
That’s how things are in our alternate world. So, right now, Hitler is over the moon. The
problem is, he has enemies everywhere in his vanquished countries. This is why he is sending
out death squads to hunt down the people he doesn’t like. For this, he deploys mobile
death squads, aka, the “Einsatzgruppen.” They scour German-occupied Europe looking
for their victims, and that includes Jewish people, communists, gypsies, anti-fascists,
and even intellectuals. Hitler didn’t leave all the work to his death squad though, he
prepared a list in 1940 of what he perceived to be “dangerous brits”, kept in his “Black
Book”. He is well aware that he is very much despised
by a lot of people in occupied Britain. The French had a resistance, but it was small
and only really significant close to the end of the war. Still, there would have been resistance
in Britain, too. The black book contained 2,820 names, from
Jews to journalists to anti-fascists to spies to politicians to academics to novelists,
all to be immediately arrested once Britain was successfully invaded. This book can give
you some idea about what would have happened if Hitler had won the war.
There are some names in the book that would surprise you, including the great writer Aldous
Huxley. If Hitler had won in England, this writer of the book “Brave New World” might
not have had the chance in 1949 to congratulate George Orwell on his dystopian novel, “1984.”
We very much doubt he would have written to Orwell, saying, “Within the next generation
I believe that the world's leaders will discover that infant conditioning…is more efficient,
as instruments of government, than clubs and prisons…by flogging them and kicking them
into obedience.” He was right, as it turned out in the long run.
Anyway, Hitler was doing a lot of flogging and kicking in the UK, and perhaps Huxley
as well as other British intellectuals who liked the idea of freedom would have been
sent to Nazi extermination camps. These Brits had no idea they were on Hitler’s
hit list, with the playwright Noel Coward writing after the war, “If anyone had told
me at that time that I was high up on the Nazi blacklist I should have laughed and told
them not to talk nonsense.” For the most part, no one really understood what Hitler
would do to secure his vision of a Nazi-led utopia.
In Britain as well as in the Soviet Union, Jews, Gypsies, Communists, certain kinds of
intellectuals, are sent to the labor camps to work, or die in the process. Young and
fit people in Britain, as well as Russia would be drafted to work for the Nazi war machine
and its general industries. This machine has to expand, after all, Hitler
has the USA in his sights, a country now wondering if Churchill had been right and if they should
have helped out earlier when Germany was more vulnerable.
Meanwhile, Britain adopts a new government in line with the Nazi regime. That is an authoritarian,
antisemitic, and xenophobic government led by Oswald Mosely, whose British Union of Fascists
has just been resurrected after being disbanded in 1940.
Not too many years earlier, Hitler had kept a keen eye on Moseley, impressed when he said
things such as, “For the first time I openly and publicly challenge the Jewish interests
of this country, commanding commerce, commanding the Press, commanding the cinema, dominating
the City of London, killing industry with their sweat-shops.”
And now, with Hitler at the helm and Mosely his man in England, the German propaganda
machine goes into hyperdrive. What’s astounding is how quickly many people in Britain embrace
what Mosely is saying. He promises an end to corrupt banking, telling them the upper
classes have kept them in bondage for centuries. Soon thugs like the old King and Church mobs
squash any resistance to the British fascists. People are afraid to speak out against fascism.
Progressives are hunted down. And something similar is happening in Russia.
The Russian Fascist Party had never been that big.
But now with Stalin and almost all of the politburo exterminated or in labor camps,
and with the Germans releasing many thousands of Soviet prisoners from gulags, a lot of
people start to believe the Nazi propaganda. Millions had died under Stalin. Millions more
had been on the verge of starvation or been sent to gulags, and generally lived in fear.
That’s why it doesn't take long for these deeply oppressed people to embrace another
form of government, one that promises a better society. As time goes on, while Germany focuses
much of its efforts on industry and taking back the African colonies that had been taken
away after the First World War, something strange is happening in the USA.
The German propaganda machine under Joseph Goebbels is incredibly effective, even far
away in the US. The mass exterminations have been kept away
from the world’s eyes for the most part, despite the rumors and in spite of the spying.
The US public doesn’t know about those wicked massacres of innocent people.
So, as the Nazis spew out propaganda regarding how their new world order is rescuing people
from out-of-control capitalist slavery and releasing them from the chains they say the
Jewish elite have placed on them, a worrying number of people are taking interest in the
fascist movement in the US. Remember, this is a country where a massive
part of the poorer population has just gone through absolute hell during the Great Depression.
Hitler blames all that on the Jews, and when leading fascism supporters in the US talk,
some of the American people listen, as they also do over the border where the Canadian
Union of Fascists speak at events. Then when Charles Lindberg stands up and promotes
his America First policy, pro-fascist, isolationists in the crowd cheer. These crowds just keep
growing and antisemitic sentiment grows with it. Even though the USA is already backward
when it comes to civil rights compared to other advanced nations, racism becomes even
more intense throughout the nation. The fascists in the US say leave Europe to
its own devices. They say any form of intervention in European affairs will likely be disastrous
given the now-great power of Germany. People look up to Lindenberg when he says things
like this: “A few farsighted Jewish people realize
this and stand opposed to intervention. But the majority still do not. Their greatest
danger to this country lies in their large ownership and influence in our motion pictures,
our press, our radio, and our government.” Remember, this guy is a national hero. When
he speaks, many people are glued to his every word. The US government has awarded this famed
aviator the Medal of Honor and the Distinguished Flying Cross, but now the Nazis have also
given him a medal, namely the Commander Cross of the Order of the German Eagle.
The Nazis know that Lindberg and Ford, two of the most powerful men in America, often
discuss what they and the Nazis call the “Jewish Problem”. Perhaps, Hitler thinks, Germany
doesn’t need to attack the US at its borders. Perhaps, he can take control from within its
borders, with the help of an American Fascist Party working on his behalf.
Hitler muses that it isn’t as if this country of “mongrels” doesn’t already have widespread
white supremacy. America can quite easily be pushed over the edge, he assumes. Those
he calls the mongrels will once again be enslaved and the Jewish will be executed. The racial
segregation that already exists in the US will just be taken up a notch.
Hitler had once said that the US military posed no threat, but he has changed his mind
as of late. Invading the US he knows is an almost impossible task, even though part of
him believes the country's military is weak due to it’s racial diversity. He writes
in his diary one day that he’d like nothing more than to see New York in flames.
Japan has already been granted part of the former Soviet Union, and the country is certainly
up for an invasion of the US. But will it work?
The months pass, the year ticks over, and the power of the Nazis just grows and grows.
Now with so much European industry in its control and an army like the world has never
seen, the US is a David to the Goliath of Germany.
And this is why the isolationists in the US win over so many of the people. War will mean
mass death. It will mean a certain defeat. Why not, just as so many have said in the
past, be on good terms with Hitler? Do some trade with him. To become his enemy is a death
sentence and finance-wise, it makes no sense at all.
Hitler contemplates on the costs of a long-distance invasion, but even with British ships now
under his control, taking that many men across the sea is a herculean task. Feeding those
men, getting the fuel for the machines, moving all that equipment across the ocean, just
seems like a bridge too far. But, if the Canadian fascists, who are now
gaining popularity like the British fascists have, go for war, a land invasion against
the so-called “decadent capitalists” can happen overland from Canada. It will take
time and the movement of many resources, not to mention it would also be very risky.
Things aren’t looking good for the US. Damn, think a lot of people, if the UK had only
been able to repel Germany, none of this would have happened. That little island losing to
the Nazis had changed the entire outcome of the history of the world.
Then one day Hitler is sitting at his desk, and he receives a report that has taken months
to compile. The report states that throughout Europe an estimated 9.7 million Jews have
been exterminated. It also states that 350,000 homosexuals have been killed, along with close
to 840,000 Romani and Sinti people. Things have moved much faster since Europe was defeated
by Hitler. The report doesn’t state how many disabled
people have died in the camps, although Hitler is pleased when he reads that they are being
used for various medical experiments. People of color, says the report, as well as intellectuals,
are mostly being employed in slave labor activities, although many have also been exterminated.
Meanwhile, scientists working in the USA are making headway with an atomic bomb project.
Little do they know that if they could have collaborated with scientists in Britain, the
project would almost be complete. Now Hitler has control over Britain’s project, seeing
that under Mosely, Britain is nothing more than a German puppet state. It also helps
that former King Edward VIII has been restored to the throne, a much more suitable monarch
for the Nazis than George VI. But what about life in general in this new
Europe? Hitler believes that he can create a utopian
society, but it is only possible when the people he thinks have caused the world’s
problems are all dead: man, woman, and child. He hates religion, but in his new empire,
he actually endorses religious tolerance. This is more out of fear of mass resistance
than anything else. He also promotes selective polygamy, believing
that if you mix the right genes you will create the right product, products for his army,
for his science projects, for his idea of societal harmony. At times, this is oppressive
for women, who are usually the ones selected. Strangely, for a man with so much blood on
his hands, Hitler detests cruelty to animals and even endorses – but not enforces – national
vegetarianism. At the same time, he abhors what he calls
“degenerative art” and he hates the artists just as much, even if they do tick the right
box for his so-called master race. He bans pornography in Germany, as well as prostitution,
some intellectual pursuits, certain kinds of writing and poetry, decadent music, excessive
boozing, and smoking. His puppet states are not asked to conform
to these ideals, but in many cases, the new fascists around Europe espouse and enforce
the ideals of the Nazis. In some ways, those who follow Hitler do see
some benefits, even some businesses and industries improve since Hitler has taken a zero-tolerance
stand against corruption. The totalitarian way, he says, must be simple and without deceits.
It is also horribly oppressive and leads to unhappiness that people try not to show.
Just as one critic over in the US says, “The utopia that Hitler seeks can never be free
from tyranny – anyone who says they don’t like this new paradise will be severely punished.”
The guy who writes that is soon beaten up by one of the now widespread pro-fascist mobs
in the US. The year is now 1944. For some time, British
scientists have been working on an atomic bomb under the Tube Alloys Project, something
that has been kept secret from everyone except those who need to know in Canada. This project
was actually started before the USA’s Manhattan Project.
The Brits had forecast a bomb not being ready until 1947, but once the new German and Soviet
scientists join the project and the Germans have more facilities, with newly built heavy
bombers, and a hell of a lot more money to make the bombs, the project is completed in
1944. But the US Manhattan Project is also just
about ready. Little do the world’s public know, that a nightmare situation is taking
place. In 1945, both sides test their bombs and so it is now known just how much destructiveness
is in the hands of leaders, and more concerning, in the hands of a man who thinks very little
of American mongrels. The strange thing is, Hitler, despite the
fact he's gassed millions of people, does not embrace the use of superweapons. He’s
even held off on using chemical weapons, even though the Germans at the start of the war
had a huge stockpile of deadly Sarin gas. So, it is not so surprising that he doesn’t
like the thought of using an atomic bomb. As for the US, it was well aware of what is
coming back if it drops a bomb, and why would it, when Hitler has not yet made it clear
he will invade the US. As crazy as Hitler is, he doesn't want to die. He doesn’t want
his idea of utopia to be destroyed. Still, if something doesn’t change in the US, he
might have to do something. This Cold War stalemate creates a frenzy among
the public, especially the American public that, according to polls, do not want to go
to war with Hitler. It is during the next chaotic year that Lindberg creates the American
Fascist Party, to be sympathetic with Nazi ethos, but with an assurance from Hitler that
Germany will not interfere in American affairs. So, how does Hitler finally win this war?
It is when fascism wins in the USA, when fear, bitterness, anger, and stupidity, push people
to the polls to tick the box under “American Fascist Party.” Some of the poor just want
change, and rightly so, but out of desperation, political distrust, and lack of options, they
unwittingly choose their own demise. Lindberg has assured that no Americans will
be harmed in relation to their race or creed, but already an ugliness has seeped into a
once hopeful culture. Gangs roam the streets at night, throwing Molotov cocktails through
house windows. The police don’t do much to stop it. This will only get worse.
Families of Jewish people, African Americans, and other minorities for that matter, huddle
together in living rooms and shed tears when they watch Lindberg throw his fist in the
air on his victory. It is a victory for Hitler just as much.
America closes its doors to the world, but inside the house something is rotten. No structure
can remain standing when the foundations are warped and decayed. Totalitarianism will eat
itself. It suppresses natural creativity, and with it, societal progress. It foments
distrust and paranoia, and in time, that leads to widespread violence and unhappiness.
One day goodness, and morality, and love, and compassion among all races, will win out
and that rotten house will fall down, but not for now. The present is Hitler’s Utopia,
hell on Earth, even for most of the ones who’ve asked for it.
Now you need to learn something that will amaze you in “Why Hitler's Nephew Was His
Worst Enemy.” Or, have a look at…
