|content=@TomBilyeu @JosephPConlon My completely crazy [[Claims|claim]]: I don’t think there is a log jam. String theory is relentlessly jamming the future. It has taught people how to *stop* progress. | |||
The future of physics is not necessarily evenly distributed. | |||

|content=[Note: This Graph dramatizing just how dramatically we have reached a new regime was made in good faith, but was both complicated and somewhat involved to put together. I am solely responsible for its construction; any oversights or errors within it lie entirely with me. I encourage others to check it, and I will be happy to correct it if necessary. However, the basic point is that the Standard Model and General Relativity are now both 50 years old, and the hope that String Theory / M-Theory would provide the next big insight has been downgraded many times in the years since the 1984 G-S anomaly cancelation ushered in the modern String Era. ] | |||

|content=I've a tradition where I use April 1 not for pranks, but to say a difficult thing that's actually TRUE. | |||
We're now in a current fad where famous physicists deride even the mere idea of any crisis in fundamental physics, treating those who claim one as delusional. | |||
They're lying: https://t.co/Vd1veqR50W | |||

|content=Here is the alternative text explaining the picture above. | |||
ALT TEXT: "Graph of the youngest living Nobel Laureate in Fundamental Physics over the last 100 years. | |||
Before the 1984 explosion in String Theory, the graph shows a physicist 50 or younger. After 1984, the graph shows that there has not been a single year in which we have had such Nobel Laureates below that age. Since 2021, the youngest such living laureate has been above the age of 70 and was given the prize done for work that is now more than 50 years old as of 2024. | |||
While the String Era is not the sole cause of this crisis, it has covered up this crisis by pretending that the field of fundamental physics is in a normal regime. This is widely disputed within the field....and even privately among the String Theory community. Most importantly, no one in the field actually believes that there is anything delusional or abberant about seeing this crisis. The String-Theory / M-Theory community members have simply decided to misportray & strawman their critics against all scientific ethical norms." | |||

|content=I am prepared to stand by the following [[Claims|claim]]: I believe that every single member of the theoretical physics community knows that there is *nothing* at all abberant about seeing the current regime as a potentially catastrophic crisis for fundamental physics. | |||
Without exception. | |||
