LOL Einstein is in fact a personal hero of mine .....


You might want to start with these two articles:

https://thelethaltext.me/2017/07/26/tesla-erasure/
https://thelethaltext.me/2017/08/06/einstein/

Nicola Tesla's plan:
“…to use the Earth itself as the medium for conducting the currents, thus dispensing with wires and all other artificial conductors,” by means of “a machine which, to explain its operation in plain language, resembled a pump in its action, drawing electricity from the Earth and driving it back into the same at an enormous rate, thus creating ripples or disturbances which, spreading through the Earth as through a wire, could be detected at great distances by carefully attuned receiving circuits. In this manner I was able to transmit to a distance, not only feeble effects for the purposes of signaling, but considerable amounts of energy, and later discoveries I made convinced me that I shall ultimately succeed in conveying power without wires, for industrial purposes, with high economy, and to any distance, however great.” (1901, Collier’s Weekly).

Obviously, if that plan had ever come to fruition, nobody would be talking about nuclear fusion power for electricity. In other words, the last century could and should have been the century during which the earth was transformed into something resembling a garden of Eden with essentially free energy for all of the people of the earth, rather than the century of communism, Nazism, world wars, terrorism, destruction, and horror.
The man who almost single-handedly destroyed the good plan and the dream was J.P. Morgan, who viewed that plan as ultimate disruptive technology, and plainly bad for business. The destruction involved the personal destruction of Nicola Tesla and also the creation of the shibboleth of Albert Einstein who, with his bullshit theory of relativity, was meant to replace Tesla in the popular imagination as the sunshine superman figure in the world of science.
Morgan had to have known that relativity was bullshit, but he plainly viewed it as OUR bullshit; it very quickly became impossible to say anything reasonable about Einstein or relativity while attempting to hold any sort of a scientific career together.

Recently, there have been a number of claims that this dream of Nicola Tesla has in fact been realized, e.g.
https://futurism.com/stanford-scientists-are-making-wireless-electricity-transmission-a-reality/


Sorry but good old Tesla was both a genius and a nut case all wrap up in one person an as such is an ideal source to base internet conspiracy theories on.

Claims are fine and can be interesting but until they been check out in details and the results public in a peer review sources they are only good for amusement.

Tesla is also a favourite figure of conspiracy theorists, and there are numerous theories revolving around him, most of which claim that his death was suspicious and followed some great breakthrough discovery or invention by him which has been kept secret ever since. In some variants, this is the "death ray"[3] he was working on; in others, some form of paranormal or extraterrestrial communication.[note 1] "The Tesla Conspiracy"[4] site claims that he had discovered the means of drawing electricity directly from the atmosphere, but that this has been hushed up by the interests of unscrupulous oil and energy companies.[5] While many perpetual motion fans believe he made an electric car that runs off some kind of atmospheric or environmental radiation, there's (unsurprisingly) no evidence that he ever built or even designed such a vehicle.[6] Further fuel was added to the conspiracists' metaphorical fire when the US government took control of Tesla's papers after he died.[note 2]

Another general trope is the notion that Tesla has never received the credit due to him, with his name somehow being suppressed by "the scientific establishment". While it's true that Edison was a fairly unethical businessman and a bit of a douchebag towards not only Tesla but many of his contemporaries[7], and even the patent office now admits that it was Tesla, and not Marconi, who invented the radio, the conspiracy claims go far beyond this. Quite how this tallies with mention of him in every physics textbook is not clear, never mind the SI unit of magnetism being named the "tesla" in his honour, as well as an electric car company and a hard rock band also being named after him.

Mental health[edit]
Tesla's obsession with the number three and fear of germs suggest that he suffered from chronic symptoms of OCD. He was obsessed with cleaning the dining table, and he also had a fear of round objects. He also had tendencies to avoid shaking hands with people. On the one hand, Tesla's alleged OCD caused him to isolate himself from people; on the other hand, it may have helped him with his eidetic memory.[8][9][10] He also fell in love with a pigeon, so there's that.[11]

Recent Godless Regimes Did Not Value Human Life

Adolph Hitler’s genocidal socialist regime* practiced the euthanasia of “life unworthy of life” and murdered about six million Jews. Communist dictator Joseph Stalin had no qualms with mass starvation. A quarter of the Cambodian population died under Pol Pot. Altogether, godless collectivism led to the deaths of about 100 million people in the 20th century. Karl Marx’s philosophy implicitly assumed that some segments of the population must be “left behind” in the march toward utopia.

Think the Progressive Democrats can kill 100 million? I do, if they are given the chance.

@revelette1,
I do not like John Bolton one jot and his plans for the ME are disastrous. The Crusades were an abysmal failure and nothing has changed since. As long as there are Western troops in the ME there'll be people wanting to blow them up.

Having said that at least Bolton isn't a traitor in Putin's pocket, unlike Trumpski.

Complete nonsense as all current GPS systems take into account relativity with software to do so.

The first 10 GPS satellites, comprising Block I, were used for testing and for military geolocation, and were launched beginning in 1978. The next 24 satellites, comprising Block II, were launched between 1989 and 1994; these are the SV's used in the operational GPS system. The way in which Van Flandern's claims quoted above are misleading is now easily summarized:

It is true that the current (Block II) satellites carry clocks which are occasionally adjusted from the master ground control station.
It is completely false that the GPS somehow defies the predictions of relativity theory. Indeed, when the first atomic clock was sent into orbit in June 1977 (aboard a satellite which was a testbed for the Block I GPS), and I quote from Ashby's paper:

there were some who doubted that relativistic effects were real. A frequency synthesizer was built into the satellite clock system so that after launch, if in fact the rate of the clock in its final orbit was that predicted by GR, then the synthesizer could be turned on bringing the clock to the coordinate rate necessary for operation. The atomic clock was first operated for about 20 days to measure its clock rate before turning on the synthesizer. The frequency measured during that interval was +442.5 parts in 10^12 faster than clocks on the ground; if left uncorrected this would have resulted in timing errors of about 38,000 nanoseconds per day. The difference between predicted and measured values of the frequency shift was only 3.97 parts in 10^12, well within the accuracy capabilities of the orbiting clock. This then gave about a 1% validation of the combined motional and gravitational shifts for a clock at 4.2 earth radii [the radius of the satellite's orbit].​
It is true that GPS is not used as a test of gtr, because it is simply not designed for that purpose. In particular, the orbiting clocks are occasionally reset from the ground to maintain the best possible synchrony of the orbiting clocks with one another and with UTC time.
It is completely false that the design of the GPS system ignores relativity theory. Relativistic effects in the GPS system are vitally important. The total difference in the rate of atomic clocks on board a GPS satellite and the reference clock at the USNO amounts to some 38,600 nanoseconds per day. (This is mostly due to a combination of the Sagnac effect for a clock which is moving wrt the GPS receiver, and the relative gravitational time dilation between a stationary clock on the Earth's surface and a stationary clock 20,200 km above the surface, as mentioned in the above quoted paragraph from Ashby's paper; frequency shifts in clocks on the ground wrt UTC due to inhomogeneties in the shape of the Earth also play a role.) In contrast, in order to maintain the accuracies listed above, the GPS system must maintain a timekeeping synchrony within 10 nanoseconds variation per day, indefinitely! The major way in which the 38,600 nanosecond per day discrepancy due to relativistic effects is accounted for is by building into the GPS software used to keep the satellite clocks in synch with each other and to synchronize GPS time with UTC an effective downward frequency shift of 446.47 parts per trillion in the orbiting atomic clocks. In addition to this basic conversion factor, GPS receivers are programmed to take account for the fact that slight eccentricities in the satellite orbits result in tiny periodic changes in the frequency of the orbiting clocks.

At this point, I can do no better than send readers who have not already been there to Neil Ashby's paper for a detailed accounting of str and gtr effects which are significant in the GPS system. ... You can also try this paper by Charles W. Misner (Physics, University of Maryland), and this one by Clifford Will (Physics, Washington University). You can find additional references in the posts by Tom Roberts included in this collection.

Stacey Abrams, A Communist Party USA Fave, Speaks for Dems Tuesday

Remember this is the candidate for the governor of Georgia who said illegals were a part of the "Blue Wave". Encouraging illegals to vote.
Quote:
She’s the perfect reflection of that party on three levels.

Stacey received mostly fawning coverage by a media eager to promote another Dem candidate by virtue of his/her, ethnic/racial identity.
Ms. Abrams was a horribly sore loser in the race to be Georgia’s governor. More than a week after the election, she ended her campaign but said, “I will not concede…..”.
Stacey Abrams is part of a growing number of Democrats who have moved so far to the extreme radical Left, they’ve even found favor within the Communist Party USA.

@BillRM,
The starting assumption for relativity is that the Michelson/Morley experiment did indeed fail. Nonetheless, when people have run the experiment with more advanced instruments, it has not failed.....

Michelson/Morley reruns:

http://www.anti-relativity.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2545
In a 1986 letter to Nature[42] Ernest W. Silvertooth reported that he constructed an interferometer capable of detecting the absolute motion of the Earth with respect to the ether. In Experimental detection of the ether[43] and Motion through the Ether[44], Silvertooth reported that on the particular day of his measurements, the Earth moved at 378 km/s towards the constellation Leo. If relativity is correct, than this result should be complete garbage.

Silvertooth published his findings before NASA launched COBE, the first satellite to accurately measure the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Due to Doppler shift, there is a slight anisotropy in the spectrum of the CMB. Based on precise measurements of this anisotropy, it was determined that, relative to the CMB, the heliocentric frame moves at 390 km/s towards Leo. Given the earth's orbital speed of 30 km/s, this is a very good agreement with Silvertooth's measurement. In a refined experiment[45], Silvertooth and Whitney confirmed the earlier result and found a speed of v = 378 km/s.

A citation search through ISI Web of Science[47] reveals no references to any of Silvertooth's papers in the mainstream scientific literature. An online document[46] briefly mentions and dismisses it on the grounds that both the experiment and the theoretical analysis are flawed, but given how well Silvertooth's result agrees with the independently determined motion of the Earth through the CMB, error seems to be an insufficient explanation. Unless Silvertooth committed outright fraud by simply making a lucky guess as to the Earth's velocity relative to the CMB and then ascribing this guess to an imaginary experiment, the inescapable conclusion would be that translation can be measured by purely electromagnetic means and that Einstein's theory of special relativity is falsified.

Aside from all that, rationalwiki i a professional skeptic site. Being a professional skeptic is similar to claiming omniscience and, in real life, there is only one guy (I.e. God) who is actually omniscient or close to omniscient.

I wonder if Trump actually read "The Project For The New American Century" and is intent on carrying out it's goals? Or is the project still active so to speak?
I think the chances of Trump reading any such material is zero. But there are still a lot of hawks kicking about in GOP-land (Liz Cheney is now the GOP conference chair). And as we've seen repeatedly, where Trump does care about anything much at all re staffing, it is related to his notions of a person's loyalty and past support or his perceptions of potential legal vulnerabilities. All else he is pretty clearly leaving to others and those others are the typical modern GOP establishment types.

@BillRM,
Oh, yeah, one other little detail I should mention...

When you put a clock in a satellite and fly it around the world a few times and then notice some tiny difference between the readings on that clock and a similar clock which stayed in Austin or Chicago while that was going on, you have two things you could believe:

All the flying around the world affected some man-made device (the clock)

or

All the flying around the world affected TIME ITSELF...

Albert Einstein was a media creation and the man behind the curtain was J.P. Morgan.

Relativity is a bunch of bullshit, just like evolution.

I disagree. Think how much worse the Islamic menace would have been if the Europeans had not stepped up to defend themselves.

The main problem with the Crusades is that we stopped having them. Imagine how much better things could be today if the world united to drive all of the Muslims out of Turkey and Syria while at the same time Israel drives all of the Muslims out of Jewish territory.

If we elect the right people. Islam is in our government thanks to Obama. There are plenty of Democrats who think they are smarter. They aren't.

Islam is in our schools. Textbooks have whole chapters on Islam, and one page on Jesus. Students are visiting mosques and being lied to. They recite the Shahada to practice Arabic for "multiculture". They are not being told that is what you say to become a Muslim. Pubic schools make exceptions for prayer breaks. That violates our Constitution. The Establishment clause.

Democrats and Republicans need to realize that Islam strives for the mile but will always take the inch. Islam from its beginning took and then took more. It has not changed. Islam is an intolerant culture in a tolerant culture, history has shown the tolerant culture does not survive.
