AI Thread Summary
Objections to Newtonian mechanics can be presented in the Theory Development section of the forum, despite initial claims that they are unsuitable for posting. Users can express critiques there without restriction. Concerns were raised about the removal of posts by mentors, questioning the fairness and transparency of such actions. The discussion highlights the perceived authority of mentors in determining the scientific validity of posts. Overall, the conversation revolves around the appropriate channels for critique and the governance of forum content.

I've been told (that's how it's written in terms and conditions) my objections to Newtonian mechanics are not suitable for posting here in PF. I'd like to know then who is in charge for that i.e. where should I send my objections?

TNX!

No one is stopping you from presenting your critique of Newtonian mechanics, as long as you do it here in Theory Development.

On the same issue, how does one contest removing a post because a mentor decides there is nothing scientific in the discarded post? Specifcally, a post moved out of 'theory development'at the same time the post in response was discarded cannot be challenged because the forum to which the opening of the thread was moved is not open to the offended party's posts? Is the assumption that mentors are more knowledgeable, or is it just because they can do the arbitrary editing and removal that they do so?
 

Thread 'Need help understanding particle physics and quantum physics'

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks
