If you can meet 1 person throughout history, who?

[Bblconsumer]

Title says it, but I'd personally choose Simone Weils, I have a lot of questions about her philosophy I need answered.

 

[HereWeGo!]

The physical Jesus, but he's more than a historical person for me and other Christians.

 

[brokenspirited]

THE GOAT

 

[Pessimist]

Jesus Christ. I'd like to ask him some questions and understand if there's any truth to his teachings.

 

[froggirl9000]

Francis E. Dec. He is my only hope for a future.
Also nice profile pic OP @Bblconsumer

 

[ImnotCTB]

I want to meet the person who created the first complete coherent language. One with nouns, adjectives and verbs

Also the rough estimate of the word "no" and "understand" must exist

AH

 

[bl33ding_heart]

Any ancient egyptian pharaoh. There's so much ancient egyptian history and culture that got erased after the colonisation and downfall of ancient egypt. There are lots of things pointing towards the ancient egyptians having more knowledge than us about how the world/universe works or possibly being more advanced than us in ways we possibly can't yet comprehend.

 

[karakoltriste]

Emma Goldman

 

[Vlad Tepes]

Vladimir Lenin. Nice Stirner profile picture, by the way.

My biological father….so I can push him off a cliff

 

[EternalShore]

The physical Jesus, but he's more than a historical person for me and other Christians.

I saw this thread and was like same~ xD If He's not available, then maybe someone with a lot of wisdom like Thomas Aquinas then? tbh, I kinda have like individual questions more than anything for historical figures other than Jesus (who can answer all of them), so it makes it hard to choose! xD

THE GOAT

that gif of him is actually pretty kyute~ >w<

My biological father….so I can push him off a cliff

Marie Curie, I'd just want to talk and maybe get her to be more pushy and assertive, maybe if we had more women as scientists and chemists in general we'd be better off today, it couldn't be worse. It's probably the best idea since it's so close to our society, she is extremely smart so she'd understand the position she is in and that after 2 Nobel prizes she has a lot of vocal power in the world. Maybe, just maybe we'd live in a different world if the good people pushed back against the oppressors, she did lead by example but not many women took her example out of fear , even if they wouldn't be able too, just knowing that THEY COULD would surely push us further, it would have to.
Obviously , I'd tell her about the radiation caused by her use of Radium and Polonium in her experiments which would lead her to avoid dying via anaemia and live more. And also maybe bring one or two modern science/chemistry books to have her "cheat" a bit , wouldn't hurt having an already excellent mind be more excellent would it?


Unfortunately I don't have a time machine.

 

[theboy]

Jesus

 

[terrafern]

I think I'd choose my granddad. I suppose I did technically meet him already but he died when I was young and I've always heard I'm a lot like him, which I'd like to see for myself.

 

[Higurashi415]

Wittgenstein I think. Or Dostoevskij.
Both of them would find me insufferable I think but I'd still like to try to have a conversation with them lol

 

[ginko0]

Carl Sagan. His books, tv series and his calm demeanour changed my life in a lot of ways.

 

[FoxSauce]

Idk why but Robin Williams

 

[ginko0]

Idk why but Robin Williams

Gee, he'd cure my depression in no time

 

[karakoltriste]

AH

You're not brave enough to say it?

 

[Endofpain]

You're not brave enough to say it?

You got the message.

 

[istherehope]

Lenin

 

[bishpop6]

My younger self...

 

[mirror_mercury]

Hitler

I would tell him to not involve himself in politics

Focus on his art, instead of focusing on murdering people............

 

[Drogon]

Nikola Tesla
