|content=Moral: none of this depends on the source. It’s a [[Decision Tree|decision tree]].

It’s checkmate of the IC either way.

|content=“Epstein belonged to both U.S. and allied intelligence services.”

As I’ve been saying, what we call “[[Jeffrey Epstein]]” is NOT [[Jeffrey Epstein]].

It’s a multinational covert operation, which is a clearing house for sub operations. The pedophile stuff is just one suboperation. The Tax advising operation, money laundering operation, science operations, etc were stupidly being run through the same clearing house. Perhaps to save money? Who knows.

The U.S. portion of this is a USAP: an “[[Unacknowledged Special Access Program (USAP)|Unacknowledged Special Access Program]]”

Why are so many minor names redacted? Two words: Sources & Methods. 

This is an unprecedented event in modern history.

It is time for the IC in the U.S., Israel, U.K., Saudi, UAE, etc to accept the obvious: 

“You screwed up. Massively. You hired the wrong actor. Your mission was a failure. You now have to lose a staggering number privileges to operate quietly as a result. You lose methods. You will have to rebuild. Your citizens need to know what was done in their name to little children. I’m sorry. Tough shit. Eat it. Such is the price of failure at this scale.”

Then you can bite the bullet and invoke State Secrets Privilege to  save what legitimate statecraft and spycraft can be salvaged from this cesspool of biblical proportions…that you created and allowed to spin so out of control.

|content=And by the way, if you want to *pretend* that the alternative is viable…it gets far far worse.

Assume he wasn’t linked to the U.S. covert operations group at all. 

Then you have an epic disaster that our elite intelligence operations couldn’t even detect and disable Epstein’s MASSIVE operations and network operating within the elite for decades on U.S. soil post sex conviction. 

Imagine that!!! 

It’s far worse. There is just no way out.

The problem *IS* our covert operations and Intelligence Community.

And in any and every possible world.

|content=Very well. Let’s begin. Follow his thread back if you missed it. 

Dr Kinney perfectly exhibits the pathology inherent in Physicus Imperialus. In this story of Dr Kinney, I’m ignorant. 

Happy with that. It’s name calling.

Yet I gave a complete argument as to why @martinmbauer was wrong. In other words the analogy was tight. And it was a lay analysis…that took this out of physics. Martin was sloppy. Will is anti-collegial. And anti-science. He is not asking for clarification. He’s doing that “You are too stupid to question us.” As if I am not in physics departments all the time. Amazing. 

Let’s try some of his arguments.

|content=Here is a sample argument. But I anticipated this one. Remember in the analogy the issue is human limb development. The right upper limb is what he means by our sector of baryonic matter. And I didn’t say that all the dark matter was the left upper limb. The right lower leg is also decoupled from Martin’s consideration and focus in the analogy! 

So there is approximately 3/4 “dark” limb when Martin focuses on his upper right extremity. Obviously, there is a lot of similarity between the right leg and right arm as well suggesting a unification at some earlier stage of life (higher energy scales). The left leg is doubly dark to the right arm. We would say twice decoupled. Even though all 4 limbs are related. By the way an insect has six. As is Dr Kinney’s point. So…

|content=Here is another style of argument you meet in physics. Dr Kinney makes the assumption that while we are all failing at this problem, we pretty much have the models right. That is, he assumes that the answer is a smallish tweak. That is the typical failure mode. He may be either right or wrong. But there is no reason the answer has to be a small tweak. Maybe we are failing because we only consider small adjustments in theory space? Does he imagine life has to be close to his model? 

My example is very far away. It’s in developmental biology. So odd this.

I was merely showing that Martin’s exclusive [[Decision Tree|decision tree]] with two branches is not complete. 🙄 
 
Note also, he wouldnt behave like this to a colleague in his dept saying exactly what I did. This is defense of the castle behavior. Ad hominem. Selective aggression.

|content=This is one of my favorites of Dr Kinney: 

“Your ideas are all so stupid we all know exactly why you are wrong and this can never work, and we would thus never say something so ignorant…and…uh….we also discuss the same things among ourselves! So it’s not new! Ha ha.”

I pass over this in silence. Res Ipsa Loquitor.

|content=Here again. I’m writing for X.

I’m describing a general class Martin Excluded: Emergent Decoupling. 

These models have 3 features: 

A) Symmetic Laws</br>
B) Symmetric Boundary Conditions</br>
C) Emergent Chiral Decoupling

In this story there is a world that is screened from us. It was completely symmetric. But we don’t know it!!

Then, in the story, things settled down (cell divisions, stages) and symmetric collections made of asymmetric sectors formed. Like left versus right arms. If the right arm doesn’t know that it’s symmetric dual isn’t connected to it (decoupled) it thinks “Woah! Why so much asymmetry!?”

Which is what I believe is most likely from [[Theory of Geometric Unity|Geometric Unity]].

|content=Conclusion. It’s obviously not a “completely incoherent argument.” 

Kinney is being a dick. Which is his right. But this is why physics is in the toilet. 

He’s debunking a totally reasonable argument that Martin was in error as if I am a “Science Populist”.

I’m not. I’m a pissed off Harvard Phd.

Doctor Kinney. Grow up.

|content=Sanity Check: @grok. 

Two narrow questions on narrow points of fact. Don’t be deferential. 

A) Can you follow my arguments?

B) Am I making a “completely incoherent argument” as if I am a fool who “doesn’t know what the eff he’s talking about?”

|content=@grok Thanks. Don’t want to drag you into drama. Appreciate keeping it
Narrow. Thanks my silicon friend.
