Default The Founder of Post-Truth (Post-Sanity) Science

"These are the props. You own a barn, 40m long, with automatic doors at either end, that can be opened and closed simultaneously by a switch. You also have a pole, 80m long, which of course won't fit in the barn. [...] So, as the pole passes through the barn, there is an instant when it is completely within the barn. At that instant, you close both doors simultaneously, with your switch. [...] If it does not explode under the strain and it is sufficiently elastic it will come to rest and start to spring back to its natural shape but since it is too big for the barn the other end is now going to crash into the back door and the rod will be TRAPPED IN A COMPRESSED STATE inside the barn." http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physic...barn_pole.html

Here a 80m long rod is trapped in a 40m long barn, but the idiocy goes much further: Einstein's nonsensical constant-speed-of-light postulate entails that unlimitedly long objects can gloriously be trapped, in a compressed state, inside unlimitedly short containers.

Einstein's relativity is immeasurably more idiotic than, say, flat-earth myths. And yet Einsteinians have the impudence to deride flat-earthers, to accuse politicians of dishonesty, etc. Albert Einstein is the founder of post-truth (post-sanity) science.
