The may '68 rebellion in France does not lead to small concessions on part of the French Communist Party, but instead a general insurrection. The soviets, hoping to annoy the west secretly funds this insurrection. This insurrection quickly takes France and expands across the nation. Similar revolutions and insurrections take place throughout the rest of the western world throughout the late 60's and early 70's, leading to Greece, Spain, West Germany, and Italy falling to insurrection. They form the fifth international which seeks to correct the errors of all previous ones. The united states falls into a third red scare and becomes quite authoritarian, taking desperate measures to hold on to the remaining NATO states. The soviets have expanded their sphere of influence in the distraction of the Americans.
