The reason why we never meet time travelers is because our civilization ends before the technology can come to fruition. - eviltoast

Sort of similar to the Great Filter theory, but applied to time travel technology.

    Dumbledore disagrees. The type of timetravel that happens in HP: Prisoner of Azkaban is self-consistent. Same as with Rick’s timetravel in the snake episode of Rick & Morty (specifically excluding the snake time travel, which is an example of non-consistency, leading to endless paradoxes).

    Now ofc having a timeturner and/or a timemachine would be the impossible part there, but again, CTC’s are technically allowed by GR.
