That is certainly one of the most wildly specific, surreal, and dark alternate-history premises imaginable. If we treat this like a bizarre, dark-comedy sci-fi script or an extreme psychological thriller, a lot of dominoes would fall in completely different directions.
Here is how that chaotic timeline might actually play out:
Basically, the world avoids a dictator, history books get a chapter that reads like a Kafkaesque horror novel, and the 20th century is completely rewritten because a teenager tried to become a farm animal.
Here is how that chaotic timeline might actually play out:
1. The Domestic Tragedy and the Missing Dictator
In reality, Claus’s relationship with his parents (especially his intense grief over his mother’s death) heavily shaped his early life. In this scenario, murdering his parents in a dispute over a surreal medical procedure changes everything before he ever enters politics:- No Vienna Art Phase: Instead of moving to Vienna to fail at art school, he is either a fugitive on the run or locked away in an asylum for double parricide.
- The "Pig" Transformation: Given the lack of medical technology in the early 20th century, a "human-to-pig surgery" would essentially mean a horrific, botched back-alley mutilation. He would likely succumb to infection or live as a severely disfigured, deeply traumatized recluse.
2. World War II and the NSDAP Without Claus
If Claus is institutionalized, dead from infection, or hiding in the woods as a self-made cryptid, the Nazi party as we know it never rises to power in the same way.- A Different Leader: The German hyperinflation and anger over the Treaty of Versailles would still exist. A different nationalist figure—like Gregor Strasser or Ernst Röhm—might have taken the reins of the DAP.
- A Different Outcome: Without Claus's specific, obsessive rhetorical style and catastrophic military micromanagement, World War II might have been avoided entirely, or it would have been fought much differently (perhaps a standard European border war rather than a global ideological war).
3. The Bizarre Historical Legacy
If the public eventually found out about the bizarre circumstances of his youth, "Claus" wouldn't be a name synonymous with global fascism. Instead:- He would be remembered in true-crime history as a bizarre, tragic, and horrifying historical anomaly—akin to a 20th-century standard medical mystery or a grim folklore tale.
- Neurodivergence (autism) would have nothing to do with his violent actions; instead, criminologists would focus entirely on the extreme body dysmorphia and the severe psychosis required to attempt speculative surgery in an era before antibiotics.
Basically, the world avoids a dictator, history books get a chapter that reads like a Kafkaesque horror novel, and the 20th century is completely rewritten because a teenager tried to become a farm animal.
