No! Fundamental Physics is fine. But it got hijacked by a crew. That crew created a cult called [[The Only Game in Town (TOGIT)|“The Only Game In Town”]] or [[The Only Game in Town (TOGIT)|TOGIT]]. Literally. That is what they called it. Pure hubris and murder. [[The Only Game in Town (TOGIT)|TOGIT]] failed you. And [[The Only Game in Town (TOGIT)|TOGIT]] hijacked fundamental physics for 41 years. But science didn’t. Fundamental physics is sitting right where it was overpowered, mugged, robbed, and tied up by [[String Theory]] and [[Quantum Gravity]] and left for dead in 1984. It’s fine. The [[Standard Model]] is amazing. As is [[General Relativity|general relativity]]. In fact: it’s totally spectacular. We could get back to work tomorrow if we could get out from under the cult and get our own resources back. But we can’t yet run De-Stringification schools, undo [[Quantum Gravity|Quantum Gravity Indoctrination]] and get back to actual science. We are still run by zombie ideologies refereeing fundamental physics. Or what is left of it. And that is why I post like this. It’s a fight to get you to grasp what happened. Similarly for COVID Zoonotic origin theory. Or Economic Theory and Neo-Classical theory. Or Neo-Darwinism. Etc. Etc. You got hijacked. We all did. One and all. And I am suggesting we take OUR cockpits back. |thread= {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1998618647418622032 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=Let’s try a science post to show you the problem with the hijacking of science: CLAIM: [[Quantum Gravity]] has been a 41 year disaster for physics. EVERYONE knows the [[String Theory]] leadership told us exactly what they were about to do, and then FAILED physics. A mitigated disaster: |media1=ERW-X-post-1998618647418622032-G7yFENxaEAAJ94x.jpg |timestamp=4:59 AM · Dec 10, 2025 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1998620026556002478 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=Everyone who has followed fundamental physics closely since ‘84 knows this is true. If science were healthy we would discuss that. But we can’t, because we have unwanted leaders. Those leaders are refereeing their OWN games. And, they win all games that they both play & referee. |timestamp=4:59 AM · Dec 10, 2025 }} |timestamp=5:26 AM · Dec 10, 2025 }} [[Category:Portal Topics]] [[Category:Physics]]
