Independence Day suffers from the Batman effect. We as humans love to envisage ourselves as able to go toe to toe with the biggest threats that our imaginations can create. However, if a species has the technology to travel thousands of light years to arrive at our door, it is inherently idiotic to assume our current technology would stand a chance against them when we can barely go beyond the moon in manned spacecraft... This is the Batman effect. Batman is often perceived as being able to defy Gods and defeat them in combat, yet he is a simple human being with martial arts training and lots of money, it is inherently impossible for him to do what he does. Yet, he achieves it because we as humans want to feel like we are capable of more than our own limitations, this movie has the same problem... As the late Stephen Hawking once said: if they come here, it will be a repeat of Columbus discovering the new world. except this time, we will be the American Indians...

If aliens ever did come to fight us, we would have to assume they are illogical in the extreme. If any aliens had the ability to traverse star systems with ease, it would be monumentally stupid to attack a pre-populated planet because there are so many uninhabited, unprotected, and unclaimed resources in the galaxy. I can only think of one reason aliens would purposely attack us -- some form of religious/militaristic dogma. Our existence or our habits would have to be blasphemous according to their views. There's really no other reason to commit any resources to engaging in hostilities with us. Our planet's resources aren't even unique in our solar system.They could collect resources from many of our gas giants' moons or asteroids and we probably wouldn't even know they were there. And even if we did notice them in our system, what could we do about it? Our species and tech are essentially useless more than a few kilometers above earth's surface. So if aliens attacked us on our planet, we have to assume we're facing a holy war of sorts.

Well, there are additional issues that weren't covered by this video: - Plague/diseases: 3 billion corpses…and not a lot of people burying them. Hopefully most of these got incinerated or dried up/charred by the city-destroying superlasers, otherwise there’s gonna be plagues out the wazoo, further whittling down human numbers. - Climate/weather alteration: many major cities and industrial/military sites just got incinerated in a 3-day explosion spree. That is massive amounts of soot, ash, possible toxic chemical or radioactive materials (bc y’all know every nuclear facility worldwide would be a target for those aliens, giant glowing SHHOT ME signs from space!), etc all being thrown into the atmosphere by city-incinerating fires. Growing food will be REALLY hard for several years, until the crap can get washed out of the air by natural processes. - Nukes: We have no idea how many nukes were thrown around, they only showed the one US attempt in the movie. I can't imagine other nations wouldn't at least consider the idea, and as everything got whittled down they'd say fuck it and throw everything at the aliens, only to have those damn super-shields block all of it. So, now you have basically nuclear winter on top of the crap in the air, and LOTS of radioactive clouds sweeping the globe. Yay mutations and most babies born post-Collapse dying! - Because of the above, the riots and civil disturbances are MUCH worse than described, meaning Road- or Walking Dead-esque apocalyptic societal collapses are much more likely. People sorta need food yo, and aren't happy when there is none. - Nothing at all was mentioned concerning alien tech. There’s kilometer-long alien starships crashed all over the world, you can bet they’ll be looted and stripped down to nothing VERY quickly by every group ever. - Also, the crashed alien ships: I doubt ALL the onboard aliens died. So, in addition to complete global chaos, you got invading alien armies stranded on our planet, competing for resources and probably continuing their extermination campaign as best as they can with limited alien tech available. More dead people. This is the kind of thing that would knock all of mankind down to 19th century tech, pre-oil and coal basically, barring whatever alien tech was scavenged. Hopefully there’s some brain-uploading super-education tech on those ships, bc without that mankind’s technological ability to leap far enough to use and integrate alien tech is screwed.

I can answer some of these. 1. Going to war with Mexico was one thing. War with the British Empire was another. If the USA does not have foreign support, expect the British to win. Just a Royal Navy blockade could starve America. What if America had foreign support? The most likely candidate would be Russia, they still controlled Alaska then.
@bunney32728 жыл бұрын
5. That would require that atrocities like the Holocaust don't occur, so there won't be international sympathy for Jews. Without an Israel supported by the USA, the USA's relations with the Arab world would be much better. After all, before Israel existed, Arabs had generally revered the USA, in contrast with the European empires. Without Israel, the chances of a pan-Arab state may also be higher.

7. If he didn't have cancer, it would depend what he would do with Bismarck. Would he be dismissed or would he stay? Fritz was quite against Bismarck, so I shall assume he is dismissed. Within Germany, most would agree that the country would have less militarist influence and more democratic influence but that is debatable. The military was very powerful, and in our timeline, they frequently overruled Kaiser Wilhelm II. As for foreign relations, would Fritz continue the alliance with Russia? If no, the difference may not be that huge.
@bunney32728 жыл бұрын
9. The CP would convince the Italian to divert their territorial ambitions west, from Austria and towards France. They would promise Italy the French territories of Nizza, Savoia, Corsica, Tunisia and other African colonies. Military situation would be quite different. Italy could not push much into France due to the terrain, but could divert French troops fighting the Germans to the south. Italy could also send men to the Balkans and the Middle East. Italy and Austria would have to engage the British and French navies in the Med. Without an Italo-Austrian front, Austria could defeat Serbia quickly and Russia would face the full force of the Austrian army, meaning a quicker defeat. Lastly, would the USA join the war? There were many Italian immigrants in the USA then, combined with Germans, could be an important voice.

Blastowitz being a descendant of the martian warrior that stopped hell from taking over mars and killing off the martians. Doom guy being a decendent of blastowitz as well. The reason why the tech is so advanced is due to it being based off remenets of martian technology. Yes this is all canon. The martian immigration story can be viewed in doom 3. John romero in an interview said bj and doom guy are related.

There is an, admittedly not well done, book about alien survivors bargaining how to use and make their tech in exchange for survival. It's how we theoretically bounce back so successfully. Power systems that can work for an alien mothership capable of travelling through space and projected energy weapons can easily power an entire country, even the US at it's height. But don't worry, the maker of this video completely ignores the timeline and makes his own where the fact we have our hands on alien tech is completely ignored. Not saying the events of the second movie would happen, we certainly wouldn't be where the movie said we were, completely rebuilt, but it wouldn't be this video either.

Places like Africa are less likely to mount a successful campaign and a larger population could be a disaster. I'm basing this off 2019 but the 1996 world would be at a great disadvantage.

If HL actually happened, it would just be like it was in the game, except maybe the military would last longer against the Combine.

Sorry kek for some reason youtube removed your comment for spam.And i do know that countries "like" them existed.What i mean is what if the events of the game happened like the war between Kolechia and Arstotzka and the polio outbreak in United Fed. And Gordon.It couldn't happen exactly like real life because the HECU didn't exist :D

It won't happen, people are too self absorbed and ignorant as a whole. Look at social media, making people famous who aren't intelligent, gifted or talented. Teachers, scientists, doctors, mathematicians and the like should be the ones looked up to, not athletes, idiots and actors/actresses. But, that's the world we live in. What a waste. What a shame, if only we could undo that...

For the most part I agree on your scenario. The amount of radiation from the destroyed alien tech is an unknown (like in similar WW3 scenarios...). One factor that I feel you are missing is the moral and ideological empty space often left after such a cataclysmic event. I think that among the ones trying to rebuild, the ones with fresh ideas would tend to be the more sucessful. Unfortunately we do not know what ideas they might have. In my own post WW3 scenario, the ones with fresh ideas turned out to be somewhat fascist leaning: a small minority before WW3 engaged in militarism, world end beliefs, fascination with destiny and so on, whose descentants a century after the war are seen marching, riding, to an extent driving or sailing, storming, bullying, smashing, shooting and mass industry rebuilding their way to regional and possible world domination.

diamond woods Then I agree with Bryce Walker, there would have been a race war. Black separatists and white nationalists killing each-other in the streets. Best case and less likely outcome would be the formation of a new country in the american south and then a massive migration like we saw with the split of India and Pakistan with white people leaving and black people coming in. Most likely case it would just set the civil rights movement back a couple of decades or more. Worst case would be mass deportations of the black community back to Africa or to US controlled territories overseas. Personally I would rather see a world where neither Lincoln or Dr. King were shot and killed. Maybe see a country with true integration rather than defacto segregation and failed halfass government attempts at desegregation.

If it happened while Trump was president he would say 'we don't accept aliens here, we're making America great again' and then show them to Mexico once his wall was built

Mmm, no. We'd reverse engineer the shields and build an energy based wall that covers the US on all sides. Since we can't ship the aliens back to their home world, we pack them into canisters and launch them into the sun. #MakeEarthGreatAgain

So the world would basically be like The aftermath of Thanos snapping his fingers, but I got to tell you when you said parts like Africa, South America and Oceania were less affected and the President of the United States was still alive I felt a sense of hope in this alternate timeline because there is no way they could have gotten everyone in leadership roles. I'm pretty confident that the human race can rise from the ashes ans unite.
