Go to before black folks got enslaved and show them how royally fucked they'll be if they don't do anything, but then show them they'll be making good music and not make money but then shitty music and they make a lot of money.

They end up not caring so I go further back in time to when Islam was created and show them all the trouble it causes. The main guy says "lolso?" and I kill him. The outcome is that I martyred the first Muslim and the religion ends up being uber popular.

So I go back even further and find the little shits who created the first religion and try to explain to them all the trouble it will cause. They don't care, I give up and start my own religion.

The impact on the future? There's a huge conflict between Islam and Memeism. Black people are still slaves for some reason.

I think if I could be given a month of Antiquity and leave to spend it where I chose, I would spend it in Byzantium a little before Justinian opened St. Sophia and closed the Academy of Plato. I think I could find in some little wine shop some philosophical worker in mosaic who could answer all my questions, the supernatural descending nearer to him than to Plotinus even, for the pride of his delicate skill would make what was an instrument of power to princes and clerics, a murderous madness in the mob, show as a lovely flexible presence like that of a perfect human body.
