It’s rubbish. If superluminal travel were possible, we would already have been visited by races (possibly including our own) from our own future. It isn’t. The Alcubierre “Warp Drive” isn’t physics; it’s fiction.

The Alcubierre Warp Drive isnt physics; its fiction.
So was heavier-than-air manned flight, until the Wright brothers did it. Landing men on the moon was widely ridiculed at one time, because it seemed so far-fetched.
You live in an age of technological marvels and breakthroughs. Things are yet to be invented that seem like pure science fiction to you today.

I think the light barrier can be broken. How? I don't know, I have a few ideas maybe on what I have read but so far, we can't quite put our finger on it. I look at it this way:
Man in 1900: We will never have heavier than air flight.
Man in 1910: We have planes that go 75 MPH and carry one man.
Man in 1920: We have a plane that can cross the Atlantic but we will never have spaceflight to go to the Moon.
Man in 1930: We have airplanes that can go 150 MPH.
Man in 1940: We have airplanes that can go 300 MPH and cross oceans but we will never break the sound barrier.
Man in 1950: We have bigger planes that can go close to 400 MPH and cross oceans but jets are on the way.
Man in 1960: We have jets that can cross oceans at 600 MPH and manned space travel is just around the corner.
Man in 1970: Same plus we landed on the Moon.
I daresay we have reached a plateau in some ways and need a way to get off of this rock, but I think it is doable if we have the will to do it.

You can’t go back in time even if you could find a way to travel faster than the speed of light. Time dilation doesn’t work that way, because you can’t dilate something less than zero.
