Chris Lintott, Professor of Astrophysics at Oxford’s Department of Physics, responds to the news that University funding for astronomy and physics research will be cut by almost a third.
Ofc this bro thinks his job is “fundamental”. Give me a break. It’s about time to cut back on the grift. I mean “string theory” alone has been a waste of endless resources. Fucking CERN. Not to mention the endless, ceaseless service to the MIC. They’ll surely be prioritizing violence and death still (aka “national security”). People mindlessly support all this because “science” (aka scientism).
Yes, I have a “terminal” degree from a decent school in a related field. As I’ve said, I’m very unimpressed with the vast majority of “research”.
It’s the uneducated and the “educated” who worship these grifters. It doesn’t require an advanced degree to see through this. An advanced degree might even be an impediment.
Well given the ease with which you debunked the many decades of research by cern with but a simple lemmy comment spending time online is a detriment to society! You should be putting your generational mind to the grindstone producing counter papers!

On the other hand spending money on “economic growth” is surely a waste as well. Just accelerating inequality and planetary doom.
Surely you must have a doctorate in theoretical physics to assess the condition so clearly, where did you study?
