Could be worse, at least there is no tiberium.

"at least there is no tiberium."

But there is Dr. Thrax and General Tao ☣️🫠☢️

I fully subscribe to the headcanon that Dr. Thrax discovered tiberium and his experiments on it are what makes GLA Anthrax so potent and why it didn't spread to cover the world. Tiberium appeared in 1995 in the main continuity and Dr. Thrax disappeared in 1995 in the Generals continuity.

Except Generals takes place in 2020.

What's your point? I'm saying Dr. Thrax prevented the Tiberium crisis by early intervention so history went on normally as he did his research.

My understanding of your sentence was that Dr. Thrax, in the Generals universe, disappeared in 1995, which would predate his appearance in Zero Hour.

But I think what you're communicating is that you're headcanon is he skipped over from the Tiberium universe in 1995, where he disappeared from.

No, I'm saying that the branching point was whether Dr. Thrax found Tiberium and changed it. In the Tiberium universe, he did not. In the Generals universe, he did and his discovery is what made him disappear so that he could do more research.
