Einstein's 1905 postulates, true or false, entail the following conclusion:(don't follow from Einstein's 1905 postulates) but indoctrinated minds couldn't care less.
If two clocks are in relative motion, either clock runs slower than the other as judged from the other clock's system.
The conclusion is absurd and causes unbearable discomfort. In the end human mind rejects it in one of two possible ways:
1. A free mind applies reductio ad absurdum. The conclusion is absurd, therefore an underlying premise (one of Einstein's 1905 postulates) is false.
2. An indoctrinated mind replaces the conclusion with a less discomfortable version, e.g. "moving clocks run slower than stationary clocks", "time slows down for the traveler", "time stops at the speed of light", etc. All replacements are non-sequiturs

The following masterpieces of the Einstein Cult are immeasurably more idiotic than flat-earth myths but the scientific community wholeheartedly accepts them (a century of brainwashing is a serious matter, isn't it?):enough strangeness occurs occurs during the turning-around period to make A end up older." https://scholar.harvard.edu/files/david-morin/files/cmchap11.pdf
David Morin, Introduction to Classical Mechanics, Chapter 11, p. 14: "Twin A stays on the earth, while twin B flies quickly to a distant star and back...For the entire outward and return parts of the trip, B does observe A's clock running slow, but
LIGO fakers: "The fact that the speed of gravitational waves is equal to the speed of electromagnetic waves is simply because they both travel at the speed of information." https://discovermagazine.com/the-sciences/why-does-gravity-travel-at-the-speed-of-light
Thibault Damour: "The paradigm of the special relativistic upheaval of the usual concept of time is the twin paradox. Let us emphasize that this striking example of time dilation proves that time travel (towards the future) is possible. As a gedankenexperiment (if we neglect practicalities such as the technology needed for reaching velocities comparable to the velocity of light, the cost of the fuel and the capacity of the traveller to sustain high accelerations), it shows that a sentient being can
Neil deGrasse Tyson, Death by Black Hole: And Other Cosmic Quandaries, pp. 123-124: "If everyone, everywhere and at all times, is to measure the same speed for the beam from your imaginary spacecraft, a number of things have to happen. First of all, asthe speed of your spacecraft increases, the length of everything - you, your measuring devices, your spacecraft - shortens in the direction of motion, as seen by everyone else. Furthermore, your own time slows down exactly enough so that when you haul
Leonard Susskind: "The principle of relativity is that the laws of physics are the same in every reference frame. That principle existed before Einstein. Einstein added one law of physics - the law of physics is that the speed of light is the speed oflight, c. If you combine the two things together - that the laws of physics are the same in every reference frame, and that it's a law of physics that light moves with certain velocity, you come to the conclusion that light must move with the same
