Scenarios that revolve entirely around the success of weirdly specific ideologies or irredentist movements that were the 20s and 30s equivalents of modern ideological slavktivist discourse havers.

Ironically Kaissereich manages to beat these allegations by doing it for so many niche movements at the same time nobody can accuse the setting of having an obvious bias to the CGT's success vs Mitteleuropa, or the Kingfisher vs the United American Syndicates.
