Abstract

Much recent work in "physics" is known to be wrong, with some shown to be nonsense with mathematical rigor. Indeed some is ludicrous, it appears deliberately so. Often results are due to nothing more than stupid errors, of language that is not language, of words that are nothing more than strings of letters, of questions that ask nothing. This has long been well-known. Why aren't physicists embarrassed by it? Why is it supported by billions of dollars of taxpayer money? Why are students allowed to be miseducated, even lied to? Shouldn't something be done?
