READ THIS BEFORE COMMENTING. IF YOU CAN'T BE BOTHERED TO READ THIS, THEN I WON'T BOTHER TO DIGNIFY YOUR COMMENTS. IF YOU POST AN ARGUMENT THAT I'VE ALREADY ADDRESSED IN ANNOTATIONS, VIDEO DESCRIPTION, OR THE COMMENT SECTION I WILL BLOCK YOU AND REMOVE YOUR COMMENTS. DON'T WASTE MY TIME, WHEN I'VE ALREADY ADDRESSED YOUR ARGUMENT.
Common complaint:
"Waaaa! You're so mean! I don't like you! You're a poopy head!"
Deal with it. I've had to deal with hundreds of moron kids who know nothing about science. At a certain point I begin to lose my tolerance and I just spank dumbfucks. I may come off as mean or a jerk as a result. Trust me, if you were in my position, you would do the same.
Common complaint 2:
"Insulting people downgrades my "argument" "
These videos are not actually "arguments", they are here to teach and convey facts. If you don't agree, then that is your own problem. I gain nothing from you agreeing, or even liking me, so I don't particularly care if you think I'm mean. Now with that said, that doesn't mean I can't be wrong, or that you can't argue. I can be wrong, and you can argue, but if it's an argument I've already addressed a million times, then you're just being lazy for not reading the annotations/description/comments.
Note: THERE IS NO STEALTH IN SPACE! Please stop telling me that space fighters can be made stealth, they can't. The reason is simple, because unlike in an atmosphere, all ships must thrust using reaction mass (they are rockets not jets) which are easily detectable. Let me put it to you this way. The thrusters on the space shuttle (which are weak compared to what we will have in the future) can be detected past pluto. The tiny maneuvering thrusters on the space shuttle can be detected past the asteroid belt. A spaceship can not move without expending reaction mass, therefore there IS NO STEALTH IN SPACE! Even if it could move without expending reaction mass, it still has an engine that gives off heat that is EASILY detected. This is guaranteed by the 2nd law of thermodynamics, no matter what you do, you will ALWAYS give off heat, and therefore can be detected.
Also stop telling me that one day in the future we may have some new discovery that will violate all of the laws of physics that we know of, and allow stealth in space or some other nonsense. Don't bring up dumb arguments like "OH BUT PEOPLE ONCE THOUGHT FLIGHT WAS IMPOSSIBLE AND WE PROVED THEM WRONG!". No one thought flight was impossible except the incredibly stupid. The theory of flight was understood since antiquity, not to mention people saw birds and insects flying around ALL THE TIME. People knew flight was possible, they just were skeptical about the claims of any given individual who said they could make a flying machine.
Furthermore, the basis of the argument is basically a false paradigm. You first assume that laws of physics in the past have been broken. Then you assume more can be broken because of that. THAT IS AN INCORRECT ASSUMPTION TO MAKE. THE PREMISE OF THE ASSUMPTION IS ALSO FALSE.
Speculating on things that violate the known laws of physics is pointless in a discussion. If you want to posit stealth in space, then I can posit super advanced sensors that detect it anyway. Unless grounded in reality, a discussion becomes meaningless when you just make things up. Furthermore, any so called "breakthroughs" in science can actually make what you're trying to do even HARDER. Not to mention it can have unintended consequences. If you have stealth in space, it also means you are breaking the 2nd law of thermodynamics. That means you can have perpetual motion. That means your vehicles don't need fuel of any kind anymore. That means you don't need new sources of resources. Uhh why are we going into space again? Once you start breaking the laws of physics, the whole logic behind the argument begins the crumble because of the unintended consequences of you wanting your magical spaceship. The whole point of expanding out into outerspace (and fighting) is because we have limited resources on our planet. Oh but your ship breaks the 2nd law of thermodynamics so it makes the whole premise pointless. Resources are now unlimited. Stay grounded in reality, and you'll avoid unintended consequences.
