I love the arrogance of Steven Hawkins. He staged a secret time traveler party, and since nobody showed up, he declared time travel doesn’t exist. Maybe time travelers just don’t want to hang out with Steve…
Alternatively: If time travel exists and Hitler is canon, then that means time travelers have collectively decided that killing Hitler is the worse option. A nearly infinite number of time travelers have already tried it, discovered it’s a bad idea, then gone back again to stop themselves from killing Hitler.
Which actually has some merit, simply due to the fact that Hitler is pretty widely regarded as a terrible tactician. He was great at inspiring his cult of personality… But when it came to war, he was pretty awful at making good decisions. It’s possible that if someone else were in charge of the Nazis, that they could have won.
What I know for sure is that I will never know if time travel is a thing, because if I ever knew, I would already know. This means that if it’s ever invented, it will be after I die, and they will never travel to places I read or know about, because if they did, I would try to get in it, and then youg me would know. So current me would know. Since I don’t know, I will never know it.
The thing about time travel is that if it’s ever invented then it already has been.

My theory is that we are wiped out before we learn time travel.
