Suppose EW is a fraudulently constructed persona, I have information that I will write about soon. The E8 Grand Unified Theory came first from Garrett Lisi, published in 2007:
With string theory going nowhere slowly, and automata surging due to Stephen Wolfram's self-congratulatory tome (Rule 110 was famously..."ganked"), Lisi's discrete model that involved interestingly basic symmetry breaking seemed to me like a reasonable challenge. And I don't think it's a dead topic, but that's another story...
One of EW's first interviews was with Lisi, whom EW called his "nemesis", and EW talked about how one should choose their nemesis wisely.
I met Lisi in San Diego circa 2004, right before he and his gf moved to Maui. He is sometimes called the "surfer dude physicist", and he...eschewed academia. I interviewed him about it in 2008, and I'll see if I can dig that up from the now defunct educational website I ran for young students at the time. But I thought the persecptive might help you.
More connected to the Thiel circle...where I met Lisi was at a San Diego futurist salon that happened to be run by the woman eventually at the center of the uBiome scandal, Jessica Richman. I went on a couple of dates with her, but over the years realized that she was headed in a strange direction. That whole futurist circle was in the Thiel-o-sphere, and included people like Danielle Strachman who ran Thiel's fellowship program for geniuses to drop out of college and work on building something. I also met Patri Friedman there whom Thiel funded for Seasteading research/promotion/projects.
Is it possible that Lisi's work and persona were ganked and used to construct the image of EW?
I think that's likely, and in fact, I think that circle stole some of my persona as well. In fact, BW brought me into a chat group in 2021, and I got to see a bit of his character as well before leaving five months later feeling like it was a designed distraction. Contact me at mathew.crawford@protonmail if you're interested in talking it through. I have begun to assemble an IDW graph in order to study the situtation, but haven't had the time to go as deep as I would like:
I by chance stumbled upon Jason Jordani in a youtube talk about bible history. This guy glows to high heaven. Massive israeli asset. Thought you might be interested. It seems like the CIA/Israel pays him to do ops like UFOlogy and founding "altright.com" (along with Richard Spencer in Alexandria, VA).
I can't imagine what Eric Weinstein does, as an employee of Peter Thiel. I like and think highly of Thiel, but Eric seems to be a big ZERO. You might enjoy Justin Murphy's dissection of Eric's not-so-special physics paper. Justin Murphy is a former political science professor and is very droll.
So sad how many minds have been led astray from their cause their purpose to be here in the world. So many missing pieces where men could have been extraordinary. Led to value and to look for cheap fast easy workaround which always ruin you in the end.
It is sooo obvious as to what has been going on. We are the entertainment being watched chasing our tails.
It's cruel and it's inhumane, however what can be expected from people who suffer from hubristic narcissism and superiority complex personalities?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Great work!

ICYMI, that grumpy old thing Noam Chomsky is ALSO linked to Epstein. Wall Street Journal got him on the record about it yesterday. https://www.wsj.com/articles/jeffrey-epstein-noam-chomsky-leon-botstein-bard-ce5beb9d
WOW
And all this for what at the end of the day?
A pat on the head?
A couple paper dollars?
People listen to you bullshit?

So much potential
