RE: A Tyrant's-Eye View

In his short story "The Last Article", Harry Turtledove posits a very different outcome resulting from mass defiance.

He examines a fictional period in which the German Army of WW2 has invaded India. The people of India respond by adopting a policy of mass non-compliance. A little bit of blood and iron quickly whips the Indians back into obedience.

I would think that Turtledove's outcome is perhaps more likely than yours ... that the IRS would just "pack up and go home".

Sort:  

The cultures of 1940's India and the U.S. today are drastically different. A foreign invasion would immediate be met by widespread, violent resistance, not "peaceful protests."
