Interesting analysis on "Commies and Chimera!". But I don't see the Chimera as an analogue to the Soviet Union (but Tsarists Russia in Resistance filled that role and building that tension in Western Europe prior to the Chimera), although the 1950s eras shared that tense Cold War atmosphere - such as both timelines have a more watchdog American government (i.e. McCarthyism and denouncing  "subversive" elements in the US), although the one in the Resistance universe was becoming way closer to a more police state.
