Yep. All of them. They're considered a joke at first, but things get a lot more serious when they elect a Pope to run the US. China holds out for a while, but things turn south for them when they legalize conversion to the White Lords' Church faith.

So yeah. Jesus was brought back to life by an alien. Muhammad spoke to an alien named Gabriel. The Buddha is actually an alien inhabiting a human body (they can do that in the story).

We're on course to becoming the White Lords' Church from the VN White or Black.

In that world, Trump is dead by the 2030s. Unrest and political troubles killed an alien attempting to make first contact. But religious MAGA, looking for a leader, decides to support the aliens. They claim that the aliens are angels sent by God, pointing to various events in the Bible as clear evidence of their influence. And then, since the people are eager to overthrow Musk, they decide to sign up with the aliens. Musk and his buddies are all dead/converted when the Church assumes control of the US in the late 2060s/early 2070s. And then they take over everything else by the start of the 22nd century.

The Church is Gilead if they favored Brave New World over 1984. And they're a lot more stable, and rule a lot longer than Gilead, lasting until the 27th century at least.

But I view the Irish to be true heroes, like George Washington of the Revolutionary War. Washington knew that the British had to be stopped. The IRA understood this.

God you sound like my doctor. That dude keeps trying to extort me with prescription medication.

The IRA's only mistake was that they stopped planting bombs to take out the Imperialists. They were good guys fighting an evil foreign oppressor; of course things wouldn't be sunshine and rainbows all the time. It's just as justified as the Revolutionary War.

Think about it: Would you rather take some evil people with you to the Great Beyond, or would you like some evil people to suck away all your savings as you die a slow death?

More than a few Brits had to depart this world to do that though, yeah?

The Irish did pretty well against such odds.

Someone probably tried to No True Scotsman the mod. It was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Or maybe the admins were getting too scary. The politics talk on a sub like that must've been immense. There must've been lots of bans by both mods and admins there. Eventually, the admins would've demanded that the mod get things back on track or the mod will be banned as well.

This year's season of America is shaping up to have all sorts of plot twists. I wonder when writers will write an episode or two for the NATO plotline?

One problem is how to keep out competition like LEOs and other squatters seeing opportunity.

The other would be how to get through the door without destroying it - sure, you can go at it with an ax, but a destroyed door won't stop wild animals coming in.

But if those issues can be solved, I think it's viable.

Season 5 of America sure is building a lot of hype. I wonder if it will top the Season 4 Finale: A Vacation to the Capitol.

I wonder what a cage match between Trump and a locust from the Book of Revelation would look like.
