|content=If GU were right, that narrative would be wrong. And that narrative is the entire world to those who have devoted their lives to it for >40 years.
So GU must be madness. Which it is not.

|content=@EricRWeinstein Caught your debate with Sean Carroll on Piers. Why do you think he was spouting off so much misinformation about GU? "There's no Lagrangian!" I'm looking at the paper right now. There's literally 3 pages worth of Lagrangians like wtf.

|content=Shhh. Have you noticed that you are like close to the only one who caught that? Explain that!
He just made that up. And no one noticed or bothered to check. And it is ALWAYS like this and has been for 40 years. I have no explanation. It’s completely beyond my comprehension.

|content=I am genuinely bewildered by some of the reactions I saw to the debate, and the vitriol from people (like me) who are mere dilettantes on the topic.
It’s like these people watched an entirely different 60min.
Mass psychology is truly a different beast, I am quite staggered.

Everything works backwards from the narrative. And the narrative is that our main job is to quantize a spin 2 field to get [[Quantum Gravity|quantum gravity]]. And that our leading theory is thus [[String Theory]] / M-Theory and everything else is pointless because we are too many orders of magnitude away from the Planck Scale and there is no guarantee of UV completeness.

Which is absurd. It’s a story. It’s not reality.

By this I mean things that are politically incorrect, but nonetheless factually true.

C) What I do wonder about is whether the U.S. government is blocking all public university fundamental physics preemptively with [[Quantum Gravity|quantum gravity]]…while likely *failing* at it in secret (e.g. in national labs) as well.

|content=More prime cut Grade A bullshit in which @rosscoulthart cites @EricRWeinstein that the U.S. has anti-gravity tech and buried it. There’s no evidence of this of course, but that’s because “they” buried it! So the less evidence there is the truer the claim! It’s like religion!

|content=🚨 Ross Coulthart says the U.S. cracked anti-gravity decades ago and buried it.
He believes major physics discoveries have been deliberately suppressed to keep humanity in the dark.
Breakthroughs that could take us to the stars are being hoarded in black projects.
Why?

|content=Ross is not being careful about what I have said I believe. And you in turn are not being careful about what Ross says in the clip here. Listen again. Then correct please.

|content=For the record, many of us with contacts in the National Security complex are told this regularly: “The lesson of the Manhattan Project that the government took away is that physics in particular is too dangerous to do fully in the open. Hence the separate Q-clearance system, separate laws on free speech, National Laboratories, and physics funding from the Dept of Energy.”
And I have said that I do *not* think it is at all likely that they cracked fundamental physics secretly. Very publicly. On Rogan.
