Yeah, I finally bowed out after I got hit in the head by the fact that it wasn’t a serious discussion. Took a while - shame on me. ---

There’s no such thing as [white privilege](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=834647).

So we had overly-broad-naive-science-question abashed, who showed when he participated in the threads that he already knew a lot about the question. Eventually he admitted he was just posting to create interesting discussions. Then we had quantum-crank abashed. Who had a layman’s grasp of delayed choice experiments and a conviction they showed mind and consciousness were essential to the existence of the universe. (Or something. It’s hard to tell quantum crank apart.) And now we have stupendously stupid abashed, who … has got to be trolling with this statement about gravity. > [@](#): > > Because I thought it is not the person moving but the earth moving towards the person. So when something is in freefall they are really standing still but the earth is not, but I might have this wrong, which is why I am asking. I know the universe is always expanding so it seemed logical. Disingenuous asshole, what do you think is happening if two objects are in freefall at the same time, but have different velocities? (If you read this abashed, please start a separate thread rather than derail this one. But do start it in the pit. You’ve lost the right to discuss anything without being called an idiot.) ---

Even better, he claims that a person in free fall isn’t affected by gravity. [QUOTE=abashed] When someone jumps off a tall building why are they free from gravity until they hit the ground?
