    The Creator makes a lot more sense if you apply niven's law of macguffins and assume the brain uploading technology is more than just a one-off. The new asians have gone full cybermen and are discarding their fallible meatbag bodies for robotic ones, since as long as they've got an industrial...

    Kai Meyer's Dark Reflections trilogy. A gaslamp fantasy version of the nineteenth century where the Egyptian Empire is the sole imperialistic superpower thanks to necromancy. The Empire's sorcerer-priests can resurrect the dead as mindlessly loyal puppets and are grinding down the collective...

    ...humans. The puppets have the advantage of being neigh invulnerable against eighteenth-century weaponry, given that they run on necromorph rules* and have enough intelligence to use tactics and weapons, but are heavily limited in number if humanity can surround the Tarn's territory, leaving it...

    ...after assimilating humans. Language and mimicry of personalities and maintaining homeostasis so hosts don't visible decompose and playing dead* are all things to learn. * The Tarn fungus can retain control of hosts so long as the host bodies are physically capable of it. Or in other words...

    I know these are probably jokes, but they still deserve writeups.

    What if there's been more than one loop? Voller already managed to travel back in time to the thirties and warn the nazi high command, including his past self, only to be promptly disbelieved and executed as a defeatist madman. But his past self remembered whatever he'd said and after it all...

    Assuming no butterflies affect his wife's literary career, the political cartoonists are going to love this.

    What I'm suggesting is that Voller wins, in the original timeline Indiana Jones lost and the entire Nazi high command got face-melted by the Ark and changing history so that didn't happen is Voller's attempt at winning the war for his side.

    Obviously, his plan should've been to travel back to the thirties and sabotage his fellow Nazis.

    You'd think a Hitler clone would have a harder time becoming a totalitarian dictator than anyone else, because everyone would be expecting them to do that and preemptively sabotaging any attempts at such ambitions.

    Well, yes, in the sense that he'll only be persecuted if he does nuke it, because if he doesn't explosively quarantine the infection it'll go global and he'll either die in a cold-war era apocalypse bunker for the ruling classes or be shot by his bodyguards for his keys to said bunker to save...

    The Man in the High Castle somewhat misses the mark

    We're going at it all wrong. The ideal ironic twist ending to all these interdimensional shenanigans would've been for Germany to fire up their portal machine and suddenly get invaded by Draka.

    Their economy was dependent on looting new conquered territories and the entirety of their earth was already divvied up into nuclear superpowers and the conquests of nuclear superpowers. The only question being, why go for parallel earths with people? Invade worlds with earlier PODs where...

    Possibly they can't synthesize time machine fuel yet, but the means to do so will be invented at some point in the future and said future will interfere with attempts at changing the timeline leading up to them?

    So, zizians but unironically and as an actual political movement rather than just a bizarre internet cult.
