Question: Are there ever like interdimensional religious crusades? Like, could someone from a TL with, say, a Messianic Rainbow Serpent Aboriginal religion show up and start preaching in a Nazi victory TL unannounced? Also, is there trans-timeline contagion?
It's happened. There's an alliance of "middle powers" with about 20th-22nd century technology that has some backing from one of the high-tech universes who try to prevent trans-universal invasions- whether religiously motivated or otherwise. Of course they can't or won't stop everything, so they mostly just protect their home TLs. They also launch the odd intervention of their own.
I meant to mention it in Philosophy, but I don't I ever got around to explaining that the portals automatically get rid of contagions when you pass through, otherwise there's be trans-timeline plagues every week. That doesn't protect people who travel to other universes in person though.
I imagine people showing up to a totalitarian state that is aware of interdimensional travel unannounced have life expectancies that can be measured on a watch.
Well sure, that's also true.
