> Naziland is a safe, wholesome whitopia > The resistance are literally kikes and degenerates > The only likable character is Obergruppenführer John Smith
What gives? Did they mean it that way? Is the entertainment industry /ourguys/ now?
It's boring as shit. If you're looking for some kind of sci-fi/rebel story, it isn't this.
Personally, I sort of enjoyed it, but overall, it was disappointing.
I thought it was interesting, the world the author created, but you spend the entire time in the Japanese occupied side of America, the only stories from the Reich coming over as rumors.
The Nazis in the book are not the good guys. Idk, what you're like, so maybe you'd appreciate this, but the Nazis are pretty much zealous murderers out to purify the world. The Whole book is set around a novelist who writes in our actual history, where the Nazis lose.
There's also a parallel narrative going on regarding how the Reich is trying to formulate a casus-belli against the Japs. Overall, the book comes to an abrupt halt without a resolution or any kind of foreshadowing. It was like Dick wanted to write a sequel, but forgot.

Blake Allen
It's a pretty shitty premise which causes the viewers to lose belief in the whole thing.
1) Nazis/Japs had no intention of invading America; it wasn't in line with their other goals at all.
2) Japanese people generally are isolationist and racialist, most would be disgusted at the idea of colonizing America.
3) The films being real footage of the war has zero emotional effect and just gives away the fact that this whole thing is taking place in studio 7.
Cooper Wood
It comes with the absolute sacrifice of freedom. Fascism isn't redpilled.
Michael Hall
Only if you're a degenerate or a nigger.
Ian Ward
Well towards the end of the second season it was getting somewhat blue pilled messaging. I assume the 3rd season will end with John Smith breaking away from Germany and created the USA "egalitarianism paradise" that we all know and love!
James Evans

Carter Butler
The book is a blue pill. Why would the show be any different?
Samuel Collins
That's too bad. Nazi alternate history sounds like a promising genre but they keep fucking it up like they did with Iron Sky.
Asher Scott
No, because Hitler and the war machine he created could never plausibly settle down roots. I'm surprised more Nazi alt-history doesn't involve Africa, though.
Jaxson Mitchell
You have to understand that most of that genera comes from America and many Americans see their role in WW2 fighting the Nazis and Japanese as our finest hour. That's why those who fought and died during the war and colloquially named the "greatest generation" and are usually pointed to as the greatest patriots alive. Sadly, many of them are leaving this earth nowadays.
Chase Martin
just sharing information
Zachary Robinson
I'm sure they will. The show seems to be missing the mandatory LGBT sub-plot. I just hope they don't make him a closeted fag or something.
Easton Reyes
It's a great potential genre, but of course you're never going to see anything good out of it because you're forced to write the nazis as evil monsters if you want to get published. That is, unless some young, up-and-coming writers who sees the potential of the new right-wing demographic decides to risk everything and start writing alternative nazi history without the self-imposed white guilt.
Logan Ramirez
Ultimately I don't think you can create a realistic setting where the Nazis won and the Jews are just reduced to a footnote. At some point, even Nazi Germany would have to have some sort of reconciliation about the Holocaust, especially given the political nature of it and doubly especially when it arises that homosexuality is an epigenetic phenomenon, and also when it arises that the gays didn't get exterminated.
Zachary Martinez
Because Hitler's plan for Africa was just to have it be a resource mine that he could exploit (Sort of like how the Chinese view it today).
Any book involving Nazis in Africa would basically be a very boring story of a boring factory owner trying to make his monthly coal quota while keeping his slave/servants in line.
Kevin Johnson
There are tons of stories like that from the British era in Africa and almost none of them are "boring."
Lucas Cox
The book is shitty and one of Dick's worst, in my opinion. The ending especially sucks; the show is better.
Jace Lopez
I doubt it. Human beings are great at justifying causing suffering to those that they dislike. All they have to do is claim that that the other side is sub-human and you'll be able to get away with any atrocity you damn well please.
Liam King
He's a high ranking American Nazi in the show (ex US military officer that joined the reich after the US was annexed).
Jace Brooks
They didn't invade America?
USA capitulated after the germans dropped an atomic bomb on Washington.
They merely split the land.
Isaiah Torres
The creator of the show purposely said it isn't exactly like the book and he wanted to get away from the nazi villian trope
Parker Smith
Ex-US Army officer who joins the nawtzees after they conquer north america
Mason Nelson
I suppose you are right. But at that point you'd be writing what is essentially a alternate history period piece of some Germans colonials in Africa with the Nazism being just a backdrop and nothing substantial. Even the stories about the British in the colonies never focused on the political situation back in Europe, which would be what most people interested in Man in the High Castle would want to watch.
Samuel Smith
Nah, there's eventually some kind of reckoning in the modern era. It'd be actually kind of cool to see how Nazi Germany handles the post-war baby boom and how those German Boomers deal with the structures of their forebears.
Ayden Peterson
>how those German Boomers deal with the structures of their forebears.
By disappointing their parents.
Logan Lewis
It is.
This is supposed to the "horrible" reality in the US after they lost the war.
No one getting raped, robbed or culturally enriched by rapefugees or niggers but look that guy said Sieg Heil which is obviously much worse.
Chase Price
>It'd be actually kind of cool to see how Nazi Germany handles the post-war baby boom and how those German Boomers deal with the structures of their forebears.
assuming a nazi victory in WW2, germany would have a massive amount of land in eastern europe and russia under its control. the plan was to raise the coming generations of germans into being settlers and farmers, who would move into the vast depopulated lands in the east.
Landon Nguyen
First season was directed by a Jew and it's bland as fuck and filled with Nazi tropes.
The ((((show runner)))) and his crew abandoned the project after season one and season two was a crayz ride filled with amazing human stories in an world with [spoiler]people capable of timeline hopping.
Samuel Martinez
The only reason we question the acts of the past (e.g. genocide of Native Americans, the slave trade) is because people who found these things to be disagreeable were allowed to write about it and have their voices heard in the mass media. Nazi Germany would never have allowed those ideas to see the light of day.
However you are correct about how it would be fascinating to see Nazi Germany's handling of the 60's/70's (though I think the show could never truly explore this as we never get to see how the higher ups deal with their new possessions). Also I think the show is also hampered by the fact that having America dived into three means that neither the Empire or the Reich could truly exploit the America's resources like America did in our timeline.
Tyler Hughes
The show is shit. There is too many telegraphed twists and it's never explained how the films of the axis being defeated end up in a timeline where they won.
Josiah Campbell
...
Evan Johnson
It's a retarded piece of propaganda that is working in our favor despite their best efforts to paint as the bad guys, only because the world today is such a fucking mess.
Austin Fisher
Also I thought it was stupid the rather mediocre looking female protagonist was banging a kike, then the nazi and pined for her, and then she ended up banging a nip in the end.
Hunter Phillips
You could do a story about the Nazis completing the Cape to Cairo rail line, it would be like a western but with Nazis.
William Rodriguez
its a show designed to paint the nazis as plain stupid and evil, but its doing a terrible job at it, the plot is GAH-BAGE and the actors are mediocre at best, the only reason people watch it is because it has a nice look to it, it looks legit
Jonathan Ramirez

No, it's the fact that a plain looking woman attracted that much attention.
I watched it. The trade minister didn't bring back the other films, just the H-bomb one.
Liam Wright
Uhhh Frenchbro. Watch your way up to the second season. It is going to get glorious. I am not a NatSoc by ideology - meme nazi on Sup Forums sometimes- but I just could not resist to automatically give a salute. You'll know when, as soon as the time in the show comes.
Colton Bennett
enjoyable kike propaganda. You actually root for the nazis through the series because the rebellion are unlikeable, while the nazis are the kool kidz.
Zachary Evans
It's by far the worst book of Dick, to his own admission it was a cash grab at a time he didn't have any money to pay for drugs. It has virtually nothing to do with the show besides the basic premise.
Brody Flores
"Take him out in the woods, and shoot him in the fucking face" My dick was diamonds when he said this.
Yeah, but that process would be ongoing, and Germany could never depopulate itself in order to move into that lebensraum in a single generation. My expectation is that in a Nazi victory scenario, German families begin moving out into Eastern Europe in the 1950s, but by the 1960s and 70s when those settlers' kids are matured, there's a mass exodus of young people back into German cities, which poses a problem for Nazi Germany: Does it force those people back to where they came from? Can they do that to their own citizenry without causing civil strife?
Because Nazis never let a good propaganda campaign die, these settlers from the East would've been glorified and lauded as keeping the German ideal alive. But those people come from the frontier, where there's too much space and not enough people, and there's no doubt they would chafe against Nazi German social mores and structures.
Landon Wright
Super je serija. Daleko bolja od knjige. I'm sure it will surprise you that he was born before the Nazis won. You know, since he served during WW2? The old Jap obviously isn't the only one capable of transcending the timelines. My guess is that the man in the high castle can do it on a whim since he has thousands of reels. Which is good since the book sucks balls.
David Reed
You have no guarentee on being called a degenerate or a nigger if you piss off the wrong person.
Jackson Wright

Daniel Taylor
True.
The Axis wanted to dissuade the US from getting involved rather than invading them.
Instead of north america getting colonized by nazis and japs, it would be more interesting to see a world with a three-way balance of power between an independent US, and a victorious Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan.
Jack Robinson
Or if you're one of the millions of Poles, Russians, Ukrainians, and other Slavs who were murdered by Fascists.

Wasn't the whole idea of Lebensraum was that any lifestyle that wasn't the "nuclear family being land owning farmers" was a bad lifestyle to have? Wouldn't they view those who return as being traitors to the ideal lifestyle?
Michael Lopez
He's saying that real life Japan and Nazi Germany wouldn't have given a shit about taking control of the Americas.

Kayden Watson
I agree it is a fucking clunker. Had to force my brain to finish. Awful and poorly written.
Jayden Rodriguez
And it would be a one sided slaughter as the only reason Europe lost its colonies was that the UN viewed colonialism as bad, so the European powers just simply let the local rulers revolt. Germany would have either bribed the ruling castes or pulled a Belgium and force Africans to work to death.
Nolan Collins
ne u tome, nego pokusavaju da ocrnu naciste
u filmu i u knjizi nacisti su poubijali sve slovene, osvojili afriku, isusili ceo mediteran sa italijanima i da ubijaju bolesne i degenericke
bukvalno jednu govna ali priznajem da dosta dobro izgleda, oni nesvesno jacaju nas
Isaiah Kelly
Of course, but idealism rarely pans out in reality. The frontier is still a dangerous place and the Germans who live there are inherently different even from the German farmers living in Germany proper.
Oliver Cooper
The entire idea of the Lebensraum was that the population density was already high and hit some Malthusian limit in Germany, so that any increase in population would be at the expense of diminishing living standards. Perhaps even more important Germany had little to no overseas territories or even treaties with overseas nations. So they needed resources from eastern Europe.
Ryder Myers
One thing that confuses me is that the shows only muslim character was running away from the Nazis. Didn't the Nazis consider Muslims to be allies? Like Hitler's original plan for the Middle East was that it should be ruled by Muslim Germans:
>Hitler said that the conquering Arabs, because of their racial inferiority, would in the long run have been unable to contend with the harsher climate >the country. They could not have kept down the more vigorous natives, so that ultimately not Arabs but Islamized Germans could have stood at >the head of this Mohammedan Empire.
Cameron Bell
You probably don't know what fascism actually is and that left and right uses that term completele wrong. Fascism is basically the belief in a well non-contestable, structured hierarchical system in an absolute state. Fascism "thinks" that guidance in form of a constant order is needed to keep people progressing as a whole. Hitler and the NS-guys were as much fascists as a scorpion is a good example for an arachnied. Sure a scorpion is an Arachnid but there are better examples for that class of species.
The term "fascism" was used to stand for something inherently evil, because it sounds so evil
Kayden Gonzalez

Camden Foster
U seriji se samo prikazuje eutanazija retarda i invalida i da je nemoguće dobiti državljanstvo ako ne ispunjavaš rasne standarde. Baš kao u stvarnosti. Niti su ocrnili Japance koji gledaju na sve ostale narode kao građane drugog reda.
Knjiga je mnogo tamnija što se toga tiče, ali i u njoj se vidi ogroman tehnološki progres pod Nacistima, u odnosu na stvarnost.
Owen Morales
This is what I expect to see, especially after that thing they show that will obviously affect John immensely while he was away. Thing about shows like this is that the kikes know right wing ideals sell, so they hook you in with a couple seasons on really good right wing friendly themes/ideas and then go full sjw the last few seasons to say "see? You're wrong if you agreed with the first couple seasons!"
I just stop watching stuff when it so obviously jumps the rails like that anymore though. It's just annoying that I can't finish a fucking tv series due to all the sjw bullshit thrown in.
Carter Gutierrez
The "protagonists" in this show are what kill it. The constant telegraphed suspense that is constantly caused by their non-sensical decisions. The reality of the settings wouldve had the authorties kill those two, yet are constantly spared. It's not consistent where the Jew's sister and her kids are killed on a whim, yet the Jew himself is caught being subversive multiple times and is not. The deus ex machina involving tagomi san is ok.
William Barnes
Yes. They obviously didn't set out to make something that would make the "bad guys" look good, but through their shitty dialogue, shitty characters, and shitty actors they pulled it off.
None of the "good guys" are interesting, they're all either whiners, pussies, psychopaths, or clinically retarded. None of them have an interesting motivation, none of them make compelling decisions, none of them are portrayed by competent actors.
The "bad guys" meanwhile have the best actors and end up getting the most development. Obergruppenfüher Smith goes from being the evil man in the shadows to being a devoted father and husband, an upstanding veteran from the losing side in a war who's now doing everything in his power to preserve what's left of his family and his country under the New Order. Chief Inspector Kido goes from being a mustache twirling baddie to a harsh, but reasonable man, bound by duty and honor while simultaneously doing whatever he can to keep the peace and prevent things from deteriorating. Etc etc.
High Castle made the classic blunder of making its bad guys more interesting, compelling, and relatable than it's "heroes".

My thoughts too. I'm just not interested in the parallel timeline stuff, you can already tell where it is going with people hoping back and forth between them. Creating a genuinely intriguing universe and then magical means to escape it on top is just bad writing.

This show is definitely not redpilled. There are parts where they say that the Bible is banned in the reich... what?? That isn't accurate at all.
Furthermore, the series is about the fucking Japanese half the time. I get that they're around too but if they should have a couple here and there as the show takes place in America. Overall, like others have said, kind of a boring show that portrays the Nazi's as android murderers which they were not.
Charles Jenkins
>like others have said, kind of a boring show that portrays the Nazi's as android murderers And yet there's an entire subplot in the second season where Juliana turns lives in the Reich and realizes that they're basically zero crime, everyone sleeps with their doors unlocked, nobody struggles or wants for anything, and life is almost perfect if you can live with the whole 'old, infirm, and seditious being humanely euthanized' thing
