This is not the case in Young Justice -- BLOODLINES show us that any and all changes made by Impulse after he travelled back already happened.  Neutron, of course, has a Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory, with his memories suffering from Ontological Inertia by being too close to the time travel event horizon.

That should get rid of Waffle for a couple of days. Mwahahaha. Who's to say there's no delayed ripple?

If there wasn't any kind of delayed ripple in effect, that would mean something else caused the dystopic future. That would also mean the Team fails to stop whatever that is from happening, and do you really think Greg would end the show with the entire team getting killed? Even if he wanted to, do you think he'd get away with it? And if it wasn't something the Team could have stopped, what reason would there be to even show it?

The answer to all those questions is "No".
