I'm thinking that memes like those would be flagged by Connectr given the situation and the higher level of enforcement on the internet compared to OTL.
Although with the historical enmity between the Indians and the British, that meme might be fine by Indian standards.
Though, with such a stricter internet, would memes even be a thing?
So, basically, anime exists ittl and it's British and it's called "pathé".
How are you making these? Is there a connectr format somewhere that Ash has provided?My half arsed attempt at making a meme on making a meme in that timeline LOL

No... I made one myself, using one of her posts as a base on Photoshop...How are you making these? Is there a connectr format somewhere that Ash has provided?
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSS!!!There's been some discussion of this in the Discord- basically, emigre Japanese artists brought the fundamentals of what would become anime to British Hong Kong, where it became a style of animation associated with the production company British Pathé, which later became the generalized name for a style of animation broadly similar to what we would recognize as anime. So, basically, anime exists ittl and it's British and it's called "pathé".
What are you talking about? If anything I see more TLs where America doesn't even exist and is under the control of a 'saintly' British forever-empireYou know, after seeing dozens of TLs pitting a saintly US against a grimdark Britain, it's refreshing to see a story that not only turns the concept on its head, but also plays with it a little. While TTL US is undeniably repressive and corrupt, the British Empire has just enough skeletons in its closet to avoid being Mary Sue-ish.
That's because you aren't looking hard enough. A More Perfect Union seems to have kicked off the trend.What are you talking about? If anything I see more TLs where America doesn't even exist and is under the control of a 'saintly' British forever-empire
All I see are TLs where the US conquers Canada...What are you talking about? If anything I see more TLs where America doesn't even exist and is under the control of a 'saintly' British forever-empire

The fact that these artists are choosing Hong Kong as the place to produce their works instead of their home country does raise questions about the state of Japan ITTL.There's been some discussion of this in the Discord- basically, emigre Japanese artists brought the fundamentals of what would become anime to British Hong Kong, where it became a style of animation associated with the production company British Pathé, which later became the generalized name for a style of animation broadly similar to what we would recognize as anime.

I mean, the political map from earlier does show that the Japanese Empire still retains the Emperor in some position of power, suggesting that the conservative Showa era (or its equivalent ITTL) never quite met the same abrupt and traumatizing end it did OTL, and thus the more risqué plotlines and features in modern-day anime simply would not be able to exist. That being said, I would be interesting in seeing what other countries outside of the British Empire have in terms of animation. Does Argentina's own liberal politics lead to a flourishing animation industry to compete with Hong Kong's?The fact that these artists are choosing Hong Kong as the place to produce their works instead of their home country does raise questions about the state of Japan ITTL.
sem... can someone DM me a working link to the Discord server as well?Does anyone have a working link for the discord?
