Your wording here says a lot: Einstein was pretty "trollish" for copernicanism. Happens that consistency of perspective, rather than silly pretzeling for different ways of knowing, is quite productive. Good luck attempting to foster a woke world that dismantles consistencies.

And actually you owned yourself here too, because Einstein's great downfall in later life was his absolute refusal to "wrap his mind around" the "other way of knowing" represented by quantum mechanics and being humiliatingly proven wrong by experiment

The apparent inconsistency between relativity and quantum physics - the lack of a single "way of knowing" that works at all scales for all things, a "Theory of Everything" - is famously the status quo in physics Sorry if you don't like it but science is not about your feelings

"Sorry if you don't like it but science is not about your feelings." Well done. Also, 2 + 2 = 4.

Sometimes, when you put two grams of something with another two grams of something, you get five grams

And your yelling about how this offends you aesthetically and you hate the shitty busted measuring device you're using and you deserve to have Platonic knowledge of the true mass of all things to infinite sigfigs is just feelings and it's not the important thing

I'll disagree with you there - I actually find feelings to be enormously important, and something that should be taken seriously in political and academic discussions. Meaning comes from feelings after all. But as always, we have to know what we're talking about.

"This guy." That another funny assumption to add the list. Kind of a woke no-no too, isn't it?
