Have you heard of “Reds! A Revolutionary Timeline”? It’s an alternate history story (in which the PoD (point of divergence) is 1901 when William McKinley didn’t get assassinated) about the US becoming a socialist country during the Great Depression. It’s a good alternate history story if you’re into this kind of thing, and it’s on SufficientVelocity.
