    If someone has a time machine, they can just make the world a better place by killing baby Adolf Hitler Thomas Malthus.

      Ah, yes. Science. That thing where going back in time to kill the scientist who discovered something guarantees that no one else will ever think of the same concept.

        Science convergers on the same truth. It’s the stupid that creates uniquely dumb outcomes. If you want to change the world by time travel, do not kill the scientist, kill the fool.

      The same can be said of killing Thomas Midgley Jr except someone else would have probably came along and invented leaded gas.
