Time machine question - would you rather visit with your ancestors from 200 yrs ago? Or have a...

Two hundred years in the past. My ancestors would be in the same village as I was born. agricultural, life very hard. Disease too, cholera wiped out most of the village in 1850.

The future. Bleak. Are we free to speak. Chinese clones.

Neither. None of my ancestors spoke English in 1824. 😅
And I won’t have descendants. If I did, I wouldn’t want to see the future. I’d hate to hear just how bad things get.

First off, I will have no descendants and if I did, I would still choose the ancestors because I don't believe humanity will exist 200 years from now (I question 20 years from now)

A rather bleak prospect realistically. I’d be sent out into the fields with my ancestors—or sold. And I’ll have no descendants.

I would go back to July 17, 1980 to prevent my mother from taking my older brothers and me from Oregon to iowa early the next day, I would show my Dad his own funeral home memorial card from iowa seven months and seven days later from that date, and explain to him everything that happened during those dates.
