I can think of many many exceptions to that Time Machine idea. It, itself is an example of Western ignorance about non-Western history.
But I agree with your wider point.
Yeah, I mean, I doubt you’d want to be transported to a Black Panther rally, during the 60’s, dressed as a ghost in bedsheets, as if it were Halloween. You might want to step back into that contraption, and be transported elsewhere, before anyone notices.
Off topic here; does your phone automatically capitalize Time Machine? Mine does! I didn’t even reference H.G. Wells and this keyboard automatically just capitalized it.
This is time machine :( lol
