Things I didn't know I wanted to see today: WWII training film for bomber crews on how to avoid flak fire.

One thing I never realized until fairly recently is the extent to which computers were already used in the field during WW2.  I knew about Alan Turing's bombes, but I never realized that even back then many types of guns were already firing somewhere because that's where a computer pointed them after doing some calculations.

Sliders taught me that might not work out

True enough (the sliders case crossed my mind as I was making the post)

Gerrymandering is one thing - it's kind of how the US has been rolling for a while I think. Unless the current attempts are of a new magnitude?

The thing I'm concerned about is systematic voter disenfranchisement, messing with voting machines, and brazen fraud. Will the Trumpists attempt something obvious? Will the US stand for it?

The problem is that you have internalized that hate.  You already hate the US.  And really, it's the excesses of people like you that seems to have triggered the Trump reaction.  If you want to see the culprit here, look in a mirror.
