    My response seems to have disappeared and I don't feel like reposting it
    all, so here is a condensed version.

    The author of that video makes the standard mistake: he assumes that
    clock sync is an essential part of special relativity.

    It isn't.

    Clock synchronisation is only used for the convenience of derivation.
    It is NOT any fundamental defining aspect of it.

    You can find the details in MTW. Basically, the only tools needed are
    a bunch of identical rulers and a bunch of identical clocks (no synchronisation is assumed). Then a certain formula is tested
    experimentally using the above tools, and if it's confirmed, then
    space and time are Minkowskian.

    In general, I'd STRONGLY recommend to stop assuming everyone is
    an idiot.

    My question has to do with what information is useless and consequently
    is all information worthy of argument.

    Imbecile, the main FALLACY in SR is the assertion that OWLS = AB/(tB-tA),

    Can you provide evidence that it's a fallacy, rather than assertion?

    As it is IMPOSSIBLE, the fallacious statement that TWLS = 2AB/(t´A -tA) = OWLS
    is completely FALSE and UNPROVEN.

    Your "conclusion" is based on an UNPROVEN assertion.

    TE READING of B clock, which IS IMPOSSIBLE.

    Clock B doesn't need to be read "remotely" - whatever that means.

    So, SR is rotten since the start of the theory claiming that OWLS = TWLS, without
    any fucking proof (not once in 120 years).

    And without any proof, Richard makes baseless assertions. And he hasn't proven that OWLS <> TWLS. The only way that it cannot be is if AB/(tB - tA) <> BA/(tA - tB).

    With TWLS, you don't need any clock synchronization since the same clock is used twice.

    Yes, indeed. So why don't you believe that AB/(tB - tA) <> BA/(tA - tB)?

    And this fallacy MEANS CHEATING, A MASS DECEPTION

    There is a baseless assertion, and the only "fallacy" is the one you're trying to foist
    on those who see through your "mass deception" :-)

    for little minds like yours, prompt to adhere to collectivist thinking (AKA communism).

    I try to follow this admonition:

    “What I cannot create, I do not understand." -- Richard P. Feynman

    I grew up in a communist country, so I know it better than you can imagine.

    I test the assumptions (e.g., postulates). Although synchronizing clocks isn't a
    postulate, it's important for verifying the theory. Hence, Einstein synchronization.
    Can you falsify it? If you can't, then your assertion is baseless.

    You are a zombie parrot, with no brain. You just BOUGHT an unsubstantiated idea

    Pot, kettle, black :-))

    Models are not reification fallacy. A model is an abstraction, not a reification
    fallacy.

    Larry, you seem to have a compulsion about "reification" as if you believe you can touch
    space and know everything about it. That is just bizarre pretentiousness and arrogance.

    Models involving the reification fallacy are illogical and invalid models.

    The fact is that you have nothing even as good as that.

    Tom and you are conflating the fallacy with abstractions without the fallacy.

    You are conflating reality with physics.

    You two are confusing math with physics;

    :-)) Larry, math is just counting. Mathematics is only a tool. Even the most sublime
    mathematics reduces to that. Physics is trying to find out how the universe works. The
    best we can do is observe, make models, test them, observe, modify, etc. And if the
    difference between the model and the observation can't be quantified, you got nuttin!

    "If it can't be expressed in figures, it is not science; it is opinion.
    – Robert A. Heinlein

    many excellent scientists have commented on this unfortunate tendency in physics over
    the past 100 years.

    Name one!

    These mistakes are utterly stupid.

    What "mistakes"? Using math? Now THAT'S utterly stupid.

    "Anyone who cannot cope with mathematics is not fully human. At best
    he is a tolerable subhuman who has learned to wear shoes, bathe, and
    not make messes in the house." – Robert A. Heinlein

    Accepting relativity involves making these mistakes.

    You are wrong, opinion-breath. It takes someone who is fully human to use mathematics
    to compare theory with experiment. I've done so. Have you?

    It takes an imbecile to do that (less than 70 IQ). Even a child knows the difference,
    and this gets laughs at a clown show..

    Apparently, you don't know the difference between theory and experiment. What is your IQ?

    You were going okay there, Larry, until that last brain-fart. You didn't tell the truth, but another Larry did:

    Have you read Krauss' book about nothing/something

    Nope. I don't believe the universe came from nothing, and mathematics
