Watching The Man in the High Castle...

Too cold for me to be out and about...thought I would relax and catch up on some binge TV

The series is loosely based on the 1962 novel by American science fiction author Philip K. Dick.[2] Taking place in 1962—in an alternate history of the world in which the Axis powers won World War II and subdivided the world, splitting the United States into two powers, the Greater Nazi Reich and the Japanese Pacific States.
It's like it cutting too close to home..

... had the Nazis been able to reach us with atomic bombs, or had our elite not been Anglophiles.

Our nation survived by simple geographic separation.

A terrifying percentage of the U.S. population still craves white supremacist fascism.
