What if every man were a king?

>>3172091
Then there wouldn't be kings, longboy.

>>3172091

But nobody wears a crown?

>basically the only Southern politician of his era who cared about and helped poor people regardless of race/religion
>becomes a fascist in every alternate history scenario

Why is this?

>>3172256
populist ideology coming from an actual commoner and not an aristocrat, an educated person, or someone else similarly powerful scares the living shit out of those in power because they're not loyal to the status quo

what if every man were a policeman
and everything was illegal

But then who would be the king of kings?

Long was a pretty ruthless politician. While "fascist" might be pushing it, he was more or less a dictator in Louisiana.

A few of his famous exploits include:
-Bribing his way out of impeachment.
-Illegally holding his position as governor after being elected to the Senate.
-Using the National Guard to hold on to his office as governor.
-Changing state laws to allow the governor to appoint all state employees.
-Establishing a personal police force.

On a national level he also attempted to take over the Democratic party by threatening to split the 1936 vote and cost Roosevelt the presidency, with his ultimate goal being to take the White House in 1940. FDR was genuinely concerned about this outcome and predicted it might result in a quasi-dictatorship under Long.

Jesus of course

He wouldn't have embargoed the Japs, thus no Pearl Harbor.

He's a parental autocrat not a natpop however he can be assinated and a Kurt klux klan member can take power and be natpop

I think people not from Louisiana need to understand something concerning Long

EVERY single politician we have ever had was a corrupt piece of shit to the core and its at a point where no one even hides it, its just a fact of life here at every single level of state government. But Long actually got shit done when Louisiana needed it. So when anyone brings up that he was corrupt, it doesnt even factor to me.

>>3172775
It's true that Long's corruption wasn't unprecedented in Louisiana, but it's really the corruption combined with the extreme centralization of authority that stands out. Also, his progressive projects and infrastructure improvements became increasingly used as a means to gain votes rather than for the betterment of the state. By the time he was assassinated, Louisiana's economy was on the brink of collapse. Long on the other hand had extorted millions of dollars out of the state's businesses and government to fund his political exploits.

>"Disrespected" FDR by refusing to remove his straw hat and addressing him as Freddy
>Supported the Paraguayans against the Bolivians in the Chaco War; the Paraguayans later named a captured Bolivian fort after him
>Called Standard Oil "domestic and foreign murders, international conspirators, rapacious thieves and robbers"

Meanwhile, FDR put Japanese, German, and Italian Americans (among other nationals of "Axis origin") in concentration camps.

>>3173089
fuck krauts

>>3172573
He used the national guard because his opponents thought it would be a good idea to hire panamanian mercenaries to try and seize the voter rolls .

>>3172256
Because he scared flaggot liberal authors like sinclair lewis that for some reason still is considered somewhat relevant

>>3172256
Honest answer? He frightened people because he would have brought change and put political agitators out of business.
It needs to be said- if real change and unity came every liberal and conservative media outlet would go bankrupt.

>>3172091
WE WUZ ALL KANGZ

>>3174637
And the nips too. Wops though? I don't know, they don't seem like they'd be too loyal to a government they change more often than they bathe.
But seriously though, besides Germany and the US, who else decided to isolate certain groups living in their country during WWII? Anyone?

>Hahahahaha le Huey LUMPF is a fascist!!!! WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!!!!
>Nevermind that he's the only politician with a nonracist policy, he hates those darn niggers more than you and I do! In my book! You don't think THAT can happen here can you? #liberalvalues

Just from the wikipedia article about "It can't happen here" gives me the impression that this Sinclair was a huge fucking charlatan.

The touted liberal tradition of the US is just centuries of hysterics isn't it?

>>3172091
So what would a Long Presidency have looked like?

>>3174769
It's the Turner Diaries for classical liberals

>>3174772

Something like the New Deal on steroids.

>>3174737
Environmentally yes. But Louisiana needs the Gulf oil/nat gas and refining industry for jobs and taxes. If they left, the state would fold up like a tent.

>>3172573
Don't forget that time that a journalist threatened to publish an article about him having an affair, so he had thugs lock the man in the trunk of a car for two days until the election was finished.

Good this man deserved an ending that wasn't a shitty anti-climax.

>>3174779
Sinclair wasn't a classical liberal. He was a social democrat.

>>3174769
Sinclair was a fucking shill FDR and was trying to somewhat subtly conflate him with HItler

>>3174737
I am not disagreeing with either you or him. He was right, fuck those pricks.

>>3172256
He doesn't become a Fascist in KR.

He's a populist paternalist autocrat. Unlike Fascists he actually gives a shit about helping people.

>>3176323
that just sounds like a fascist describing what he is without using the word fascist

"Alt-right" cucks would call him a commie if he lived today

Him and Smedley Butler were pretty cool guys.

Well maybe FDR should have stopped sucking banker cock.

>>3176323
He actually becomes Social Conservative later in the game.

>>3176615
The game only makes him Paternal Autocrat because of the nature of his wartime government. Once you finish reconstructing America after the Second Civil War he turns Social Conservative.

That's the point of the Bible isn't it? Everyone is a direct agent of God with a license to kill on God's behalf.
