I mean, that’s kind of what happened with the last civil war too.

You’re saying your grandmother doesn’t try to convince everyone she meets the Earth is flat?
More like take note people, this is how you get laws you want.
You’d think so, but I guess they didn’t.
“Amid violence”
No, it did it’s purpose: it made headlines.
Give it another 20 years, then release it with an accompanying series of articles about “wow, check out all the fucked up shit the CIA used to do, aren’t you glad they stopped!”
I was actually kinda pissed when I had to switch to a car with a CD player and couldn’t use it anymore.
I have a feeling abridged series are on average better than the originals.
“They’re not mine, I swear, I stole them from NYT!”
Or contamination. Could just be something environmental.
There’s also that both PRC and ROC claim the area. IIRC, Taiwan actually claims three extra dashes.
Festivity Doctrine, if you will.
Ternary computing is some serious alt-history fodder.

You know how every once in a while there’s an article going “man, check out all this illegal fucked up shit the CIA was doing 20 years ago, sure is great they stopped and don’t do anything illegal and fucked up anymore”, and the date they stopped doing the illegal shit is always “20 years ago”, regardless of when the article is published?
Well, that.
IIRC, the secessions were preceeded by a period where it was sort of an open secret of what’s gonna happen, with stuff like future confederate generals transferring cannon stock to southern bases, and moving themselves and their families south, and the North by and large stood by and let it happen under the rationale that “we shouldn’t anger them, they may still come around”. To the point that, again, IIRC, the commander of Fort Sumter saw trouble brewing across the river and requested reinforcements just before the war, and was turned down.
