None are actually interested in solving the big picture problems, the paradoxes of physical reality. The answers are right in front of everyone's faces, yet blind they remain. It's all ego-defense. Our egos define our reality, if we let them. Those truly capable of understanding the reality in which they inhabit and the true reality of their quarry are instead forced into defense of their position. Defending their very livelihood, the survival of their very own. Capitalism and constant threat of incursion of external threat or expulsion from whatever tribe they think they belong to stifle any attempt to actually do their job. Defending their job is a full time affair, and I don't mean 8hrs/day. Defending your job becomes defense of your very life, which is 24/7/365. Defense of any type is a supermassive black hole of such enormous gravity that it will consume every last bit of time or matter. Defense simply feeds more of the same; defend one thing and soon you'll find reason to defend another until all resources are diverted to its continuance. With all this defending going on, how can one think in an unbiased and scientific fashion? How can one create beauty instead of destruction if the only goal is stronger walls around your ideals, your “property,” as if one can own a portion of the Mother herself, the very earth that supports us all? How can one understand what's inside of themselves if their concern is only external threat? As above, so below. All you'll ever need is inside you. These are not platitudes, they are Truth and naked it shall be, defenseless is it's Nature. Assault the Truth and and your claims fall on fallacy. So, this all begs the question: How can one miss the cube for the square? How can one not see that a cylinder must precede a circle? Does anyone not know the Pauli Exclusion Principal or Whitney Embedding? Of course not, too busy defending and not creating or SIMPLY REMEMBERING. The Three Body Problem is not a problem. How did Onestone (Einey) not see this obvious and elegant fix to his work? Because his “survival” was more important than his creation. Because in defense of his job, Einstein presumed a thing wasn't the thing it appeared to be. He let his ego, his idea of himself among others, to dictate the narrative instead of his very eyes. His desire to weave was stronger than that of create; you see he didn't have the faith to rock the established belief that time ONLY moves forward. Time only moves forward if you presume that it does. Matter, meet Anti-, and they'll dance at the Event known as Horizon. Light is the medium of time and gravity, just as one's shadow is proof of its 2D reality viewed thru the medium of 3D depth, light, as we see it here in 3D, is a shadow of its 5D bulk reality. It ain't E=MC^2, it's E=MC^3 scaredy-cats. Light, gravity and time are all optional in the 5D, pick ‘em up and play, or don't. But stop defending. Stop defending anything, especially your opinions. Defending them weakens their foundation as fact buffets against its fracturing walls. Stop defending your choices and you'll realize choice was never a part of the equation. Friction free, you shall be. Believe before see to be Libet-free. Free will is better as Free won't.

The author argues that ego-defense, driven by capitalism and societal pressures, prevents humanity from solving fundamental physical paradoxes and understanding true reality. They propose that concepts like time, gravity, and light are optional in a higher, 5D reality, suggesting E=MC^3 instead of E=MC^2. The post urges a shift from defense to creation and remembrance, asserting that true understanding and freedom come from shedding ego and external validations.

i feel the essence of what you're saying about defense consuming everything, that part lands. but i think the leap from ego-defense mechanisms to rewriting physics gets a bit abstract for me. the stuff about surrendering your need to defend, to just create and be, that's where the real medicine is imo. the rest reads like theory stacked on theory. what i know from practice is that when you drop the armor, when you stop fighting internally, clarity comes. whether that rewrites einstein or not, the freedom is real.
