When you went back in time to prevent Hitler’s entry into art school so that you wouldn’t have to analyse his overrated aquarrells in art class anymore.

Fun fact: Hitler’s father was called Alois Schicklgruber until he was 40.
A pretty convoluted and sketchy turn of events surrounding a small inheritance lead to him being forced to change his last name to Hitler, 10 years before his son Adolf was born.
It’s debatable whether Germans would have been as eager to shout “Heil Schicklgruber”.

They would opt to “Heil Führer” or something. There are other ways to refer to someone than their given name but it’s a fun fact indeed, thanks for sharing!

He could have changed his name, just like Iossif Vissarionovitch Djougachvili.

I’m trying to find who they are talking about but coming up empty on Hans Duchtelstein

The joke is that a person named Hans Duchtelstein was the previous timelines “Hitler” and after being successful Hitler just stepped in because fate is inevitable.

Reverse: we time travel and kill Hitler, come to the present and Hans Duchtelstein takes Hitlers place but does the exact same thing.

Two so far.

Remember, they have discovered 42 plots against Hitler.

And they didn’t have nearly as sophisticated means of communication that time.

Two so far that we know about. The Secret Service doesn’t report on attempts that don’t make the news because it inspires copycats.

It’s less about the means of communication now as it is an absolute state of surveillance to act upon before things are even in motion.

I’ve long ascribed to the theory that, if time travel is ever invented, no one kills Hitler because WWII was inevitable and Hitler actually bungled a lot of key decisions. I’m praying Trump is the same. Maybe this is the most painless purging of nationalist sentiment across the timelines.

The only way to really prevent World War II is to prevent World War I and to do that we would need to prevent the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, and our own timeline made it pretty clear that he was destined to die that day.

The assassination of Franz Ferdinand feels like there will be two competing organisations with access to time travel.
One was trying to prevent the assassination while the other was making sure it happened.

It’s just time travellers from original timeline that tried to prevent it, and time travellers from the fucked up resulting timeline that returned to fix everything back to at least what it was

And here I immediately thought if one were trying to assassinate him, the other was trying to seduce him. Did you save him? Unfortunately no, he died of a heart attack. Apparently ED medicine had greater effects on people in that time period

Changing timeline with useful morons. Not a bad idea.

So, 3rd world war will start and Russia will launch nukes. Nato will fuck up their response, because of the orange freek. Most Russian nukes either fail to fly, fail to detonate or the yeald is garbage, because corruption and stolen maintenance funds. Earth will only be partially ruined. Russia will declare victory and soon collapse due to internal conflicts, arguments about the new world order and related assassinations. Something better will eventually rise from the mess.
