That's the sorta thinking that has you plowing into the deck of an American light carrier at 800+ mph, strapped to a flying bomb. A human being doesn't think like that, shouldn't think like that. An animal does.

Eh tbh the only time the series perked my interest was when Hitler was hinted at being the titular Man in the High Castle and the true hero of the story. Sadly they didnt have enough balls to go through with it and have a good-guy-hitler plot since even when putting aside "lol hitler did nothing wrong" schtick, it would have been a pretty damn interesting concept going forward

They managed to pad out the original source material competently enough, but they pretty much used it all up by this point. Even the esoteric hippy stuff in the novel where Philip K Dick tangentially muses about Taoist mysticism and the fluid nature of reality got extensive exploration in the TV series adaptation. There's nothing new left in the source material for them to draw from, it's all been extensively mined already.

He's a snappy dresser? I don't know, I was busy playing Wolfenstein to remember and now all I'm thinking is how long could a man's head survive in a jar if we called him spacefish.
