    You know, Max Planck was told not to pursue physics because there wasn’t much left to discover anyways. By a physics professor. 150 years ago.

    You’re statement is based on incomplete knowledge. There is now way to know how much there’s left to know.

      Believing that everything that needs to be known is totalitarian by definition.

      Once truth becomes a known quantity, Correct Action becomes objectively calculable, and non-compliance to the Correct Action is seen as completely devoid of value.

      This is why totalitarianism tends to become dictatorship.
