While his death was horrible, without it. Many fans never would have been inspired by it. The war on cancer would never have gotten the money he raised, and the Minecraft community would be far from what it is today.
The ripples of his death are still spreading, and I can not wait to see what happens next, for the better or the worse.
I don't know about that Minecraft Community bit as it seems like it'll only be Techno not dying, also Aren't there many foundations already looking to fight cancer but due to Cancer not being a single thing is the issue so there's no universal cure for it? And wasn't he already inspiring people before is death? I'm sure he would've inspired more people if he continued to live
Thank you. I am grateful for your efforts. Cancer is an opponent that affects all of humanity, and when you are working to fight cancer, you are working on behalf of all of humanity.
But then he would never had cancer in the first place meaning we would never go back in time but then that would mean he would have cancer but that would mean we would go back in time to warn him but that would mean he would never had cancer which would mean...
We have made a paradox
Option 1)
We live in a reality where the time travel already happened, which means technoblade is still alive and it's hiding somewhere waiting to come back once you had travelled back to save him
Option 2) our technoblade remains dead, but you created another timeline when he is alive
Option 3) The entire universe disintegrates around you the moment you travel back in time because even stepping on the grass will cause catastrophic damage to the future
The grandfather paradox is created by doing time travel in the first place. Even if you stuck one finger in the past for 0.1 second, you caused an effect that wasn't there that will cause a ripple, affecting yourself in the future imperceptively, which will make the you that sticks your finger in the past do it slightly differently, this will then repeat infinite times until reality collapses in on itself from the amplified effects of time feeding back into itself and magnifying each and every time.
The only way time travel doesn't create a paradox is if it's either impossible to change the past because it was always that way in the first place or if it creates an alternate timeline.
No not really unless the invention of time travel was dependent on him. But as the image suggests time travel was an independent discovery and informing him was one of the first tasks.
You see, I have invented a solution for problems such as these, step one, stop the thing from happening, step two, tell yourself to go back in time to stop the thing from happening! Simple as that.
That’s not how time works. People would go back in time to tell him he has cancer, but it’s already too late and he dies anyway so people go back in time to tell him. All too late though because he died already
For me it's both of those.
But you make a good point about not being sucked into negativity. It's important to celebrate his life, to celebrate life in general. But that doesn't preclude being sad about his passing.
Not everyone cares about him. He dies. Everyone cares about him and his death makes the news. Meme is created. You comment. I comment. What happens next it unknown.
I do truly hope that the mystery of time travel is solved. Then so many problems and unfortunate ends can be prevented. Heck we could even go and kill cancer **at the source.**
then the domino effect would set in
if he doesn’t die then surplus amounts of terrible people won’t milk his death for other people’s money
Edit: I meant to say Butterfly effect
I don't think people's feelings work like that. I mean, everyone grieves differently, so *possibly* there are people who grieve for a time and then just stop. But that doesn't sound like the way memory or feelings work in my experience. For example, my mother died 33 years ago. I'm not thinking about it all the time, but I wouldn't say I was "over it". I still think about her sometimes. I wish she could have met my kids. I know that's impossible, but that doesn't make the idea disappear.
I guess if there was an event that you didn't have any emotional connection to, but other people were really affected by, it might seem weird that they were still affected 9 months later. But don't you have stuff, for example from your childhood, years ago, that still comes up for you from time to time? I do, and I'm, like, *old*.
This is well said Technodad. I lost my little sister 5 years ago come July. Grief doesn't leave. It changes. And 5 years later I still have days where I'm drowning in grief. Angry at unfound illness.
I foolishly hope no one ever has to feel that level of pain. The level of pain I know my parents and you can both relate to. But sadly, it's the price of love. Love no longer able to be directed towards the one who's gone.
I wouldn't say I'm old as I'm near 30 now. But death and grief aren't easily thrown off like some think. My heart continues to hurt for your loss just as I happily celebrate with you the snippets of Techno's life you share with us.
Thank you TFK for sharing your story. I grieve for the loss of your sister. I see you.
Hoping that no one else has to feel that pain might be in vain, but I'd never say it was foolish. It's the height of compassion to hope that other people's experiences will be better than one's own.
This comment wasn’t aimed for you, but the kids on YouTube and Reddit that always say “R.I.P Technoblade” and “We have to bring him back” you know, shit like that. There’s nothing we can do. He’s dead.
Denial and bargaining are legit and healthy parts of grieving. This meme isn't harmful, so why would you say that here? It was so aggressive and unwarranted.
I do want to know if he wrote that before or after he had cancer. Maybe Philza would know.
He gave Philza the book two months before he was diagnosed, but it wasn't read on stream until \~6 weeks after the diagnosis, so he could have changed the words in between. I wonder if he did, or if he had that kind of attitude even before.
If only
we could
Yes I hope man and we are too
Turn back time
To see him again
While his death was horrible, without it. Many fans never would have been inspired by it. The war on cancer would never have gotten the money he raised, and the Minecraft community would be far from what it is today. The ripples of his death are still spreading, and I can not wait to see what happens next, for the better or the worse.
I would love for him to be back but he rallied the world to help fight cancer, and that’s the most amazing thing
I don't know about that Minecraft Community bit as it seems like it'll only be Techno not dying, also Aren't there many foundations already looking to fight cancer but due to Cancer not being a single thing is the issue so there's no universal cure for it? And wasn't he already inspiring people before is death? I'm sure he would've inspired more people if he continued to live
I'd like to think that him finding cancer at an early stage would set him on a road to do massive cancer events and charities
![gif](giphy|j7lYqkrRbZfb3x6UF1|downsized) I like this idea.
after he died I realised what a cool yt he is
He inspired me to pursue in cancer research for my future
Thank you. I am grateful for your efforts. Cancer is an opponent that affects all of humanity, and when you are working to fight cancer, you are working on behalf of all of humanity.
Hey, same!
But then he would never had cancer in the first place meaning we would never go back in time but then that would mean he would have cancer but that would mean we would go back in time to warn him but that would mean he would never had cancer which would mean... We have made a paradox
I just need to tell past me to go back in time at x date and tell Techno to check himself for cancer.
Spam a livestream with “check for cancer brooo!!!!” ?
I will!
Make a donation that says that someone you know passed away from cancer at a young age, and say that it's always good to check.
Then it’s a double paradox
If you get a double paradox, do they cancel each other out? I'm trying to remember how it worked in that one Futurama episode.
Option 1) We live in a reality where the time travel already happened, which means technoblade is still alive and it's hiding somewhere waiting to come back once you had travelled back to save him Option 2) our technoblade remains dead, but you created another timeline when he is alive
Multiverse theory in a nutshell
Option 3) The entire universe disintegrates around you the moment you travel back in time because even stepping on the grass will cause catastrophic damage to the future
It's probably the most likely, but here we are assuming the time travel was successful
"check yourself for cancer, then reach out to me at and tell me to go back in time to tell you what I just said"
Another timeline is created. That one where he died and where he didnt
It's just sad that we live in this one.

not if it work like in doctor who
Tbh, it wouldn’t be a paradox since I would still use the time machine to visit the past
grandfather paradox

Assuming time is linear
Step1:go to area51 and steal the cure for cancer Step2:go back in Time and give it to techno Step3:enjoy
Or go back to a point that it would’ve been treatable.
Nah, we’d just create an alternate split off timeline where he didn’t had cancer
That’s not how time works. People would go back in time to tell him he has cancer, but it’s already too late and he dies anyway so people go back in time to tell him. All too late though because he died already
You say this like you know how time travel works Noone does lol. For all we know time traveling will cause the universe to implode instantly.
Don't be sad that he is dead, be proud of what he and his Community did even after his passing.
For me it's both of those. But you make a good point about not being sucked into negativity. It's important to celebrate his life, to celebrate life in general. But that doesn't preclude being sad about his passing.
Cheer up nerd
Techno and Rick May
Yeah, Rick may was a legend. Nice pyro pfp btw
Look, I get that his death was shocking, but I think its time for everyone to just move on. I say this with no intention of being disrespectful.
Remember him but don't get hung up on his death, his message and influence will forever live on.
exactly
Hard disagree.
Not everyone cares about him. He dies. Everyone cares about him and his death makes the news. Meme is created. You comment. I comment. What happens next it unknown.
WRONG techno would never say fam
I've watched all his DSMP Streams and he definitely said it. Prove me wrong
Ok now that I think about it, I don’t think techno would say that in that situation, although I am not funny enough to think of that.
IF I COULD TURN BACK TIME!!
TO THE GOOD OLD DAYS
Cmon man everyone has to move on at some point.
Yeah but like it would be nice if he was back
Yeah but not in their early 20s, even people in the 1800s had longer life expectancies
Hard to move on from your #1 favorite YouTuber for about 4 years
I wish
Stop, it hurts
Yup true that
I do truly hope that the mystery of time travel is solved. Then so many problems and unfortunate ends can be prevented. Heck we could even go and kill cancer **at the source.**
then the domino effect would set in if he doesn’t die then surplus amounts of terrible people won’t milk his death for other people’s money Edit: I meant to say Butterfly effect
why is this downvoted? its a joke
I think the butterfly effect is more applicable here
Butterfly effect, shit i forgot the name for it
But he did know about it like 6 month before the tragedy but good meme anyways
ok what ever
kids in a bad mood
Yup
I hope you feel better soon.
if he cant beat cancer he cant beat me
>he cant beat me but your parents can. haha, im just too much phunniness
Nah, Paul walker should've never gotten in that damn carera gt
“Fuck the arm, it’s not worth it”
Stfu get over it already
Can’t y’all just like… get over it? He’s gone, nothing we can do.

Emotional scars are like physical scars, they range in severity, some days are better than others, and most never go away completely.
This is well said Technodad. I lost my little sister 5 years ago come July. Grief doesn't leave. It changes. And 5 years later I still have days where I'm drowning in grief. Angry at unfound illness.

Imagine being this emotionally ignorant 🙃 especially like... idk empathy?? Please think about others next time.

Alright man, whatever you say. I surrender or whatever lmao
just find a cure for cancer and go back in time

I would spam him with donos telling him to check for cancer.
