Well, I'm afraid your correct.
 But what can we do?
  My proposal: we need to change the future!
 This is actually very easy and goes like this:
 if 'bad guys' have time-machines, we could make the use of them really dangerous by very simple means:
 Simmply use (occasionally) a coin to decide what you do.
 think about two possible activities, which are both equally good for you. Then flip a coin and do, which action you had assigned to either side of the coin and which side comes up.
 This is simple, but would alter the future, hence make all predictions about the future worthless.
 This is actually good for 'good guys' because those have no time machines and are therefore not threatend by 'future manipulation'.
 But 'bad guys' apparently use 'time-travel', what is a VERY powerful weapon.
 You and everybodey else could make that a little more adventurous, if you decide to make thinks only better and nicer that necessary and if you bring an element of unpredictability into the world, which is based on flipping a coin.

There's not much we can do.
It is much easier to destroy than to build, which is why generally, as the Bible says: “The wicked gets fat, and the poor wastes.”
As for time travel, this poses two insoluble problems, firstly that of logic and causality, then that of the principles of the theory of relativity whose equations we cannot invent as we wish.
Relativity tells us that we can easily travel into the future, but that it will be physically and mathematically a journey of no return. We can only travel in one direction, even if we can travel faster or slower in that direction by using relativistic speeds.
