Ooo like the great hypothesis that light is just a dark sucker made by my friend Josh while I was on acid many years ago.

Made me curious. The speed of light is one dimensional, a geographical coordinate is two dimensional. How can these two be equal?

“Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.”

Thank you! That was driving me nuts.

Shadows can actually move faster than the speed of light. Also, space itself can in theory move faster than the speed of light. There are actually probably many physical objects traveling faster than the speed of light relative to us because although they travel less than the speed of light in their own reference frames, the expansion of the universe causes objects very far away from us to be moving at a substantial speed so that extra speed they get from space itself carrying them farther away from us could put them over the top of the speed of light.

Dark is faster than light, where ever light goes darkness was there before it.

I guess its the speed at which light leaves, which yes is the same as the speed of light

Totally false. Darkness does not have a speed. And the speed of light is simply the speed of particles with no mass.

The coordinates for the pyramid of Giza is also equal to the speed of light in m/s.

There is a speed to which light becomes absent from a point in space

But darkness is just the absence of light. So there isn’t a speed of darkness

Forest cutters, hunters, mass murderers of indigenous people, polluters, destroyers, etc. are mostly men. Male biological design also plays a role in that kind of behavior.
