    Half of it is like they couldn’t get the math to work out with their theory, so they made up some bullshit to make it work.

    “Oh, the math for string theory doesn’t work out? Clearly there must be 12 more spatial dimensions.”

      And quantum entanglement is just bullshit as Schrodinger’s Cat points out.

      Nothing exists in a closed system. If anything is entangled, everything would have to be entangled, making it useless. Many-worlds is the only theory that at least makes some sense of it. The cat isn’t both alive and dead, but rather there is a universe where the cat is alive and a universe where the cat is dead, which isn’t really entanglement as the universe we’re in is always resolved one way or the other. But even that is basically “oh we can’t make sense of this? Clearly there must be infinite universes”.

      String theory =/= quantum mechanics. String theory does include some weird theorised stuff.

      Quantum mechanics itself is, unfortunately or otherwise, a proved model and makes extremely accurate predictions at a particle level. It is not just made up bullshit.
