Name: Adrian Colebrook
Date of Birth: September 22, 1981
Reason: He knows what he did.I remove Charles Sawell. Terrible President.
Do I have to remove their entire life or can I pick a point in time in their life where they are alive, but the next moment suddenly go poof and vanish into thin air?
According to my interpretation of chaos theory, virtually any change can cause you to not be born. Even if just considering the butterfly effect for weather: a few weeks or months after the change, the weather in the new timeline will completely diverge from the old timeline worldwide, and this will affect your parents’/ancestors’ behavior enough to change which genes get passed on, if they even still make a baby. And that’s only the weather, there’s a lot more chaos in the world.
The only exception is if the change happens just a short amount of time before you’re conceived, and far enough away. Then I can believe that it could work. But it would still affect your entire life, which might be subtly or totally different from your life in the original timeline.
All that out of the way, there are quite a few politicians and billionaires I’d like to nominate. Too many to list.
The mathematical definition of a chaotic system is that you can find two paths that will eventually diverge to be arbitrarily different. But eventually is a keyword. Two very similar paths can and will progress very similarly for a long time.
Do you have to use the power so you were still born?
Nah. I just think you would want to.

But why?
My birthgiver than, I’m doing it intentionally
It’s been discussed here much better than I could, but I concur with, you pretty much can’t.
The slightest change would cause ripple effects that would affect almost everything.
Everyone always gravitates to the big names… Hitler, Trump, Elmo… But even the most possible mundane person, such as an Inuit baby born to parents in the remotest part of the Arctic 200 years ago, would be enough to cause changes that could easily keep you from being born.
Time travellers don’t go after Elmo, for a reason
I mean removing someone who was born in between when your parents got together and when you were born would be fairlu safe. The odds that some random baby’s absence in those months/years that they’re together but not pregnant is not impossible, but pretty slim.
If you can pick any time and place pick a random person in bumfuck middle of no where in Mongolia 1 day before you were born or even when your parents sexed that led to you would be fine. Unless you live in Mongolia
Trump’s impact is recent enough it probably wouldn’t make me unborn. There’s a good chance removing Hitler would change things though.
I’ll punch that fish trying to get out of the water. That will teach him.
Oh i wish i wish i hadn’t sat on that fish…

No screw it I’m removing myself. Only way to be rid of this insanity
Oh shit before I was born ok I guess my father for the same reason.
I wouldn’t. But if I absolutely had to, I’d try to find the shittiest person I could, born as close to when I was as possible, and as far away from me as they could be.
I would take out that time-travelling trophy hunter who stepped off the path and squished a butterfly.
Jesus. Oh wait, he wasn’t real. BRB
I mean you could probably still remove him from the timeline, as in remove any mention of him so that he actually doesn’t exist in any context.
I don’t have anyone I’d want to remove and I’m also not so naive to think it wouldn’t come with major unpredictable consequences.
Myself. Only way to be rid of this madness.
All the butterfly theory and chaos theory and other such things aside, as messed up as it sounds, probably go back in time to the week before I’m born and find some newborn baby from the 3rd world country who won’t make it more than a few days and remove them. They weren’t gonna live long anyways. Again, messed up, but probably ensures I wouldn’t inadvertently make myself never born.
