>>12159752I'm not a particle physicist, so there's probably other issues I'm not aware of, but the major problem I can see is that G, which would need to be the coupling constant in a QFT of gravity, is not dimensionless in natural units, and thus such theories wont be renormalizable.
This means it would be possible to create effective theories within prescribed energy ranges (a bunch of these already exist), but no single theory that is general across all energy scales.
>>12163263Quantum mechanics isn't necessarily discrete.
For example, a single free particle in an empty universe would have a continuous energy spectrum, as
>>12163391has said.
Most of the discrete stuff in quantum mechanics is an emergent consequence of particles being confined. In some sense, this is analogous to how fixing the ends of a classical string (a kind of confinement) results in the wavelengths of the vibrational modes becoming discrete.
>>12160279All of these are a meme.
There are no "anti vaxxers", they are almost entirely media fiction in order to create a embarrassing caricature of a "dumb person", to manipulate the intellectually insecure. It's likely one of the biggest reasons for the overreaction to the virus:
>We need to shut down the entire world economy>If we don't, people will think we're dumb like those anti-vaxxers the media keeps showing us>You don't want to be like them do you?The same applies for the rest:
>GodWBC was another media meme. Evangelists of that kind existed in a handful of towns in a handful of US states, while the ideologies pushed by mass media exist and are dominant worldwide.
>Flat earthersTrolls.
>Climate deniersDepends upon massive conflation between people who reject the existence, people who reject human activity as the primary cause, and people who accept humanity as the primary cause but see the proposed solutions as doing more harm than good. Without this conflation, the boogieman becomes as much of a forced meme as the rest of them.
