What if WWII had not been won by the allies? Amazon prime tickles our imagination in a great series called “The Man in the High Castle.” Season one is on Amazon prime now and I am addicted to the show. I can’t come up for air. I am watching the Tech game and watching and listening to “The Man in the High Castle.” I am on episode 7.
What really comes to mind is freedom and how fragile freedom really is. I can’t possibly not think about the sacrifices my parents’ generation made to guarantee our freedom.
This series really gives a good picture of how it all could have been. What if America were divided into 2 nations? What if Japan and Germany ruled? How would our lives be different today, especially under the WWII regimes?
Addendum: I am finished the series. What a scary show. Please note, the flag is from the series, not from me.
The point of the post, which obviously is not being picked up, is that our freedom is very fragile and often taken for granted by Americans–those of us who have it. Were it not for the sacrifices of many, especially from the Greatest Generation, we would not have our freedom. “The Man in the High Castle” is just one story of what our lives might be like were it not for those from the Greatest Generation.
