forgive me if someone else has already asked, more eloquently, but…the central issue around the Klein/Time thing, to me, seems to be one of “Creation Of Reality” (as in the oft-quoted Suskind piece, “We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality.”)
that is, with Time, something–a very important thing–that is demonstrably false is presented as Truth from a magazine that’s at least thought of as our culture’s modern Town Hall–someplace where “news” (here defined as factual) is discussed.
it seems, in this light, that a push back from this community would be key, one that basically–no, *actually* says, “we SEE what you’re doing, here. IT IS A LIE. now, let’s sit down and discuss this, please. actually, no, not “please”. SIT DOWN, NOW.”
sorry, but I really think “Creation Of Reality” needs to be among the biggest crimes ever. its ripple effects have been far too injurious to far too many.
thoughts, please…? :)
