What would be the social implications of this new discovery? Given the most urgent problems humanity faces right now--international militant terrorism, refugee crisis, rising of the right-wing nationalist politics, varieties of intolerance,the threat of a nuclear fallout, global warming and the ensuing catastrophic climate changes, wage slavery...--, in what possible way, if any at all, can this new black-hole discovery contribute to solving these problems?
And if to think of this discovery as having anything to do with social ills is a category mistake, then why all this highfalutin excitement about it on TV?!!!
What does a black-hole have anything to do with civil life and its problems?
