Dialect | Einstein's Relativity contains a HUGE Loophole. Its Implications Can't Be Ignored. @dialectphilosophy | Uploaded 9 months ago | Updated 3 hours ago
An extraordinary misunderstanding lies at the heart of relativity, born in the overlooked distinction between the empirical verifiability of the two-way speed of light and the presumed isotropy of one-way light speed. What is this distinction exactly, and how might making it explicit shake the foundations of our entire paradigm of modern physics?
