Alternate time line topic #2 ( conspiracy )

Assuming we're somehow in an alternate timeline, when did it begin?

Looking at significant shifts in global politics, a good candidate might be 1989-1993, which coincides with [the SCC being "shelved"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superconducting_Super_Collider). Maybe this did have some catastrophic event where our universe shifted to one where all the communist systems collapsed. The relative peace of the transition away from communism is interesting if you compare it to the bloodshed of other revolutions.

Another candidate may be the [Higgs Boson test on 4 July 2012](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higgs_boson#Search_before_4_July_2012), which coincided with the precipitous rise of SJW identity politics and the outing of globalism. Soros, although active, was not known to be so influential before this period and all the SJW buzzwords were not used practically at all. Another thing is the rise of ISIS, which did not really exist before this date. AQI was almost defeated by the surge and the "rebels" were still the mostly secular FSA. The complete shift in the Western mindset towards white guilt and globalism over the last few years has been hard to comprehend for many, maybe - I can't speculate how - this universe isn't the one from before that date?

It was 2009. The summer to be exact.

where will it end? Can these alt-times merge in the future?

in my opinion: Roswell 1947. If not then, perhaps 1899? it was kind of convenient that Nicola Tesla showed up and made so much successes, and then ended up "forgotten" while his things stayed around. This is supported by the NS confiscation / TS classification of some of his papers and their disappearance into the archives. Elon Musk, the progeny of the DoD, even label one of their company Tesla.

Over the past three centuries the desertification across central america, asia and africa is leading to migration to more temperate geographies can explain more social unrest as cultures are upended and destroyed. Trickle down economics is another long brewing cause of problems. late stage capitalism explains how the division in the nations of the west have been eroding for centuries and the divisions between the world are outdated, redundant, and dangerous. Corporations are becoming the controllers of the government and increasingly at odds with the people. to end this the lower classes would need to rise up and make socialism work.

Human memory is not infallible. Just because you can fool a few people with cognitive dissonance s no reason to assume it is evidence of anything beyond social manipulation.

The divergence is when H.W. Bush became Vice President.
