Just curious, why?

Are we expecting the original to get deleted?

In our world.

I would consider Wheel of Time as an example of fantasy with reskinned real world cultures.

Andor is essentially a landlocked version of England, having a “Lion Throne” and ruled by a queen. Cairhien and Mayene bear similarities to France (Cairhien has the Sun Throne; Mayener names are reminiscent of French). Arad Doman resembles Arabic countries and Iran. (source: TV Tropes)

It’s well-written, but by nature of being fantasy, it sidesteps the challenge of writing meaningful interactions between real world communities.

If they actually made that work… respect.

To who?

The first few chapters seemed like someone took all their antisemitic conspiracy theory / murder fantasies and model-swapped aliens for Jews.

I can’t unsee it, and I wish I could suspension-of-disbelief harder, because I was initially really interested in the premise.

Edit: Maybe xenophobic / immigrants is more apt.

It looks you’re coming at this in bad faith, so I’ll ignore you.

For anyone else reading, the CIA version basically revises “brutal dictator” to “brutal ‘captain of a team’.”

OP’s saying that neoliberals and the CIA were/are contradicting each other, not that Stalin was a good guy.
