This is my first high quality collage! There’s limited lore. Mainly, the US joined World War I, and lost. The Farmer-Labor party was once a fairly righteous socialist party, whose main opposition was the milquetoast Liberal-Conservative party. Thomas Shelby, a union organizer from Pittsburgh who was accused of gangsterism and corruption, led a hostile takeover, and cultivated the party into a vessel for him, and his particular brand of semi-authoritarian socialism. However, rather than fascism, political futurism became the premier fascistic ideology, which became popular mainly due to the actions of Quincy Browne Douglas, mayor of New York City, and demagogue, formerly on the right flank of the Farmer-Labor party.
