The Inmates ($tring Theorist$) Are Running The Asylum

[caltechpostdoc]

$tring theory has done far more damage to physics than just $tring theory itself.

$tring theory's central postulate is that there is nothing more to be asked, and that all government funding for all of science should thus go to $tring theory.

$tring theory has fostered a class of fundamentally dishonest, hand-waving, conjecturing, posing, preening, vogueing pretenders. Corruption allows them to make more money from lying than seeking the truth, so they have no incentive to do physics. The fashionista class has bled over into other fields--even the experimentalists raising millions upon millions to test $tring theory's hoax--they're in on the con too.

They're all in on the joke, and should you speak out against them, they laugh at you. They call you a crank when you question their ridiculous theories that as someone pointed out here have no laws, nor postulates, nor any predictions that can be tested. When you ask them to draw a cube in dimensions 8-10, they jeer, sneer, and put you on the blacklist so you'll never be a peer. And everyone lives in fear of not being a peer, because peer review is how they further the untrue.

$tring Theory is about one thing--money. Book deals, government grants, TV shows--it's a big-time tax-funded circus. A theory of nothing--an elite insider's club for those smart enough to learn the rules of accepting and living the lie, but too stupid to ever think on their own. The worst have risen to the top. It's not the first time in all of history, and it never lasts long.

I have dated many beautiful, elegant women, but none of them were subsidized by NSF nor the government nor student loans.
