I know, but thanks for the reference! I'm actually the author of numerous papers which rely upon the well-known equivalence of Lorentz-Poincare aether with special relativity (and a more advanced aether with GR) and my most recent paper is directly calling out the metaphysical nonsense of claiming one cannot test the one-way speed of light. From Sagnac interferometers to a host of other early experiments, (not to mention the CMB) the one-way anisotropy of the speed of light is literally unquestionable, but the problem is that people think they are defending Einstein and relativity when they attack one-way anisotropy. They use circular arguments to support bad metaphysical assertions because they "know relativity is true." ...but they aren't defending relativity, they are defending non-empirical - yet academically traditional - metaphysics.

Unfortunately, they are only defending the confusion caused by Clifford Will when he conflated anisotropy with falsification of relativity. GR specifically expects and requires one-way anisotropy and Einstein pointed this out repeatedly. This - does - however lead to preferring Lorentz Poincare aether over Special Relativity (Which Einstein publicly deprecated) and there's confusion on what exactly that version of aether theory is, particularly because Poincare repeatedly pointed out the requirement for motion of the substance, (poincare stresses) whereas Lorentz kept hanging on to a stationary aether. Einstein's 1906 paper on the inertia of energy (mass-energy equiv) is drawing upon Poincare's mobile aether and he credits Poincare directly.

Relativity - as a whole or principle - is just fine without self-deluding defenders of the faith, but it still has them (about one-way tests) and they're barking up the wrong tree.

If you're looking at my edits and it seems like I'm just upholding the mainstream interpretational narrative like a good little cog, it's just because I'm good at hiding that I'm a heretic to avoid lynch mobs while I still provide unassailable truths just one tiny step away from directly saying where mainstream beliefs went wrong. I stick to the facts in articles but in talk areas I generally hide my real opinions to avoid the tribal aspect of wikipedia editing. (anyone from another tribe reading this right now is feeling the urge to go check - and possibly screw with - all my edits because they aren't aware how much tribalism affects their ideas of truth)

When it comes to the one-way tests, people just can't separate popular belief and their personal interpretation from the facts they are supposedly relying upon. Conflation, conflation, conflation. It's the lazy mind's way to simplify. So I'll keep pretending my opinion is the exact same as everyone else while I shove the relevant facts into the brightest light. I've been doing it for nearly 20 years and it's been working - albeit slowly. When I first joined wikipedia you couldn't even find out what a fringe shift was anywhere on the internet; so I made the article. It looks like crap and I really should update it.

Describing an edit as vandalsim

Thank you for trying to keep Wikipedia free of vandalism. However, one or more edits you labeled as vandalism, such as the edit at Fizeau experiment, are not considered vandalism under Wikipedia policy. Wikipedia has a stricter definition of the word "vandalism" than common usage, and mislabeling edits as vandalism can discourage editors. Please see what is not vandalism for more information on what is and is not considered vandalism. Thank you. - Aoidh (talk) 02:55, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It was very unambiguously illegitimate blanking since he was not merely blanking the area in dispute but every edit I made afterwards in preparation for re-write.

He did so without any reason other than "not agreeing" or some other frivolous reason. ...precisely as described in illegitimate blanking Nemesis75 (talk) 08:16, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
