Main entry
- going back in time to kill Hitler -> this is blue because of the weird amount of framings that this is actually bad. when normal people judge everything based on ethics as the ultimate rubric and treat the violation of specific ethical principles as something that's an inherently obvious reason not to do or believe something, and Nazi Germany invading other continents is one of the worst ethical outcomes there could be, this baffles me. this is one of the most Existentialist things you could say.
- though. okay. it's time for a little dark genius. if it's the case it could hypothetically be bad to go back in time and prevent Nazi Germany, then it could hypothetically be bad to go back and prevent the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. that could hypothetically lead to a much worse outcome. hypothetically! most people don't think about that implication. it could hypothetically be bad to go back and prevent the rise of the Communist Party of China. which also means it could hypothetically be bad to destroy the Communist Party of China today, because the process of preventing it and the process of destroying it today would be similar.
now what does that say about the people who think it could be bad to prevent Nazi Germany?
Time travel as relativity
- going back in time to stop Stalin
- going back in time to stop Trotsky
- The past history of revolutions is merely the present process of revolutions going through its first or second repetitions / In concept, "going back in time to stop Stalin or Trotsky" could literally just be teleporting to a different country that exists today and looking at a present-day revolution early before you'd otherwise hear about it; the past is merely an event which has not completed and crossed (for example) from Alpha Centauri to earth 4 years after completing
