I have a time machine and I'm inviting you to use it. Whatever you do won't affect the present but you can change the course of history in your dimension. Just one problem; its a one way trip, you can never go back to the present and meet your friends and family, you will die there. Would you take the chance?

If so, when and where? Why? Would you try and change history? How and why?

I would travel to Breda, 1625, enlist in the Tercios. No real reason. I wouldn't change anything, I would just fight in the Tercios until Rocroi and die there in a honorable way. Best life ever.

Germany 1940.

Give them robots to assemble tanks and see if it drastically effects the war.

I want to go back in time to the point where mitochondrial eve crawls out of the primordial ocean and crush her under the heel of my boot and chuckle aloud.

I'd use it to travel back in time a few years to earn shitloads of money. If it's a terminator-style time machine I might even use it several times.

Early United States.

Change up the war of 1812 so we take Canada. Then make sure we take all of Mexico in the 1848 war. Then I start a secret society to make sure the USA takes Alaska, Caribbean, and the rest of Central America.

November 1918, France.
I would party in Paris for a while, learn Russian and then go try to assassinate Stalin and save the Russian revolution.

Hmm. Rome during the pax romana, try and convince people to be a bit more thorough about persecuting christians. Failing that, maybe assassinate constantine before the battle of the milvian bridge.

Or go back to the time of the hebrews and keep them polytheist somehow.

Yes the christposting autists have upset me a bit, glad you noticed.

You do realize that the hypothetic mitochondrial Eve is for all intents and purposes just as far removed from the primordial soup, chronologically speaking, as you. Poorly thought out shitposting is the worst shitposting, apply yourself fäm

Pfft. That veneer was just that, a veneer. Christian europe was chock full of all sorts of endless warring between christians when they weren't going abroad to fight muslims.
