Is it right to leave the Jews to their fate in this alternate timeline? Given in the 1930s and in the 1940s there was opposition to letting Jews in the country. Though they were sometimes labelled communists by the Western world at the time, so this timeline's Philippines can still save them without restrictions from the United States like in our timeline. I am still writing about a nationalist fascist party before going to the Spanish Civil War then the Philippine-Japanese War a few years after in the timeline. Fascist ideologies are the same and different at the same time during the inter-war years

@SpringErica I read about the frieders brothers they're the one's who convinced Quezon to save those jews although he accepted it also Quezon wanted to bring tens of thousands of Jews to the Philippines and permanently settle them on the island of Mindanao, his efforts were stymied by the US government, who limited him to accept 1,000 Jews a year, over a 10 year period.

@YuigaNariyuki21 I also think it is not right but I'm thinking how circumstances of the time and antisemitism being relatively common will affect Philippine politics. Most of the western world is religious back then, but they were still reluctant on taking in Jews. I do plan on using Quezon (not a president in this timeline) and other Filipinos to support saving Jews. Not sure about the Frieders since they moved to the country in 1918 in our timeline. They were the ones who mentioned about what is happening to Jews in Europe to Quezon from accounts of Jewish refugees that came from China. Though I could probably twist this to make it 100% possible for the Philippines to take the humanitarian route, still denounce the Nazis making the country enemy of the Axis

@SpringErica for me it's not right to leave those jews fate I think the philippines should save them. But I read about jews being labelled as a communist at that time this is what I found: **conspiracy theory that states Jews have been behind communist revolutions around the world. Leon Trotsky was a political ideologue, who happened to be Jewish, who was personified by the Russian Czarist government as a symbol for Jewish Bolshevism. Nazi Germany invoked the antisemitic “Judeo-Bolshevism” myth to blame Jews for Germany’s woes after World War I. While some Jews were communists and fought in the Red Army during World War II, labeling all Jews as communists is antisemitic. Another code word invoked is “Marxists,” after Karl Marx, who, despite being of Jewish descent, decried Judaism and blamed Jewish merchants for promoting capitalism.***

@Yaaaaabbbbbeeeee No worries. Yeah, every single day it's scorching. Can't walk to the fridge to get water without sweating when the aircon is off. That president needs those funds to fund his industrial air-conditioner 24/7

Current timeline for Alternate History Philippines is around 1932-1936. So we will be approaching the Spanish Civil War and the Second Sino-Japanese War
SpringErica
Finally got out of that long inspiration drought. Work seems to have calmed down as well. I think I now have a general direction for Alternate History and idea for re-creating the Azur Lane fanfic
SpringErica
I meant a separate Isekai completely unrelated to Azur Lane. But it would be fun to use that idea of Isekaing this alternate version to Azur Lane as well

@DennuelleGranil No, but an isekai one with my version of the Philippines like Japan Summons I will just be re-writing what I already have

You still alive bro?
SpringErica
@Ambush_Boi0928 Yeah, sorry about not updating for the last two months, but I'm currently having some sort of writer's block. The holidays, family matters, and some job interviews probably did me in. I am trying to find jobs overseas after all. Currently reading some of the history of Southeast Asian countries since I need to build some stuff up before going to WW2. Not to mention Japan's imperial quests in East Asia. The Philippines should a larger role in the Asia-Pacific by the 1930s after all

So author question are you gonna make this fic to our current timeline? I mean are you gonna go all the way until 2022?
SpringErica
@VinzeVergara I planned to go up until the Cold War only. Probably up till 1991, the collapse of the Soviet Union
