        Segregation, slavery, and Manifest Destiny? When it was a literal patriarchy on top of all three?

        First time in living memory perhaps.

      There are whole sections of the story that show American suburbia as it would have been known in the 1960s, except with Nazis. Churches are repurposed to worship the state rather than a god, but are otherwise unchanged in their layout or services. When the Nazis took over, they found plenty of people willing, even eager, to collaborate.

      The whole point is that America was never that far from fascism to begin with.
