Taking out Nixon, Kissinger, and Reagan would probably be the more effective use of time travel for preventing our current situation but I like where their heads are at
I don’t know what is more depressing: realizing that if time travel were possible at any time in the future they would have come to fix this bullshit, so it isn’t possible ever, or that time travel will actually be possible but killing any of these four isn’t a priority because what comes next is so much worse, that all future time travel interference attempts will try to fix that what is yet to come. Or even better, this is the best possible timeline and killing Hitler or preventing the rise of global capitalism causes something even worse.
Maybe someone did come back to fix the bullshit, but it created an alternate timeline that they are now living in, while we're stuck in this shitty one
That's one theory and there's also a couple other theories. One where doing something back in time just removes the reason for going back in time so time travel doesn't get invented. Another is that all time travel already happened and time travel can't actually change anything because it is bound to happen either way.
