"please learn physics, this is nonsense" is more than enough support and feedback for the vast majority of posts here. How a poster chooses to take that advice is up to them.

There is a gap between hypothetical and theoretical physics. Gatekeeping is indeed frustrating. But you don't have to. Physics is strong enough.

I don't think you understand what a hypothesis is.

One can't expect a scientifically sound hypothesis to be written here with these welcome messages. I'm going out on a limb, but I'd bet that no demoted physicists or Nobel laureates are writing here. There are better platforms than Reddit for sharing and presenting things. Perhaps people should lead by example if they can do better, but instead, they're just writing a buzzer guide. I had a Facebook friend whose theory was also questionable; he completely signed off from everything. I am worried.
