God knows if Musk is pulling some 4D chess on this though š¤·
Now THAT would be fun!
I wonder how advanced our technology and civilization would be right now if we adopted Tesla's methods instead of Einstein
After completion of successful Mars landing mission: āOnly joking guys, Mars is a dead planet! Waste of resources! Jokeās on science!ā š
Eddison you mean
Einstien was born 5 years after tesla died
Edison was the marketing man and Einstein was the boffin
Tesla was a bit of a nutter towards the end though
They needed Einsteinās theories to bring us that ācertaintyā of the physicalist paradigm that would take us out of the chaos of War
He fell in love with a pigeon and claimed that wiggling one's toes was the secret to extended life
For ābit of a nutterā read āpersecuted and isolatedā
He was probably ready to admit that ā2+2=5ā
Hardly persecuted I'd say
He was quite rich for some time
He was supplanted
In what way
Edison screwed him over on his patents and Einstein was established in academia
It isnāt personal though
Just part of the ālong march through the institutionsā
It began in earnest after WW1
Einstein being established in academia doesn't seem to imply Tesla's persecution I'm not quite following that logic
Itās a tailored progression
To obfuscate genuine scientific progress
I admit I'm not too familiar with the Tesla/Edison patent thing you're mentioning, but from what I understood, Edison had an established research lab which essentially became a patent machine
I completely disagree
Thereās a recent movie on it Iād like to see
Oh cool what's it called?
The āCurrentā War
See what they did there š
Itās so blatant these days with the propaganda
But what Iām trying to suggest is what is not so obvious:
That they are also signalling their efforts in the ālong march through the institutionsā, in he culture that they produce
Itās the trick of ārevealing the methodā, that they seem to get so much of a kick out of š¬
I'm still not quite following this logic from Tesla not making money from his inventions, to a secret seeded revolution by infiltrating institutions
Itās the dodgy Lex Luther stage magician. A trick that has become so popular that many people like to copy it actually
Cultural Marxism!
So, because Edison was a better businessman than Tesla, cultural Marxism?
There is no flow of logic to this
No
There is logic in following a pattern
Have you heard of āthe Long March Through the Institutionsā?
