Redux: Fictitious Newtonian forces are not Newtonian.
There is no liar paradox without a liar.

Who used the phrase "Fictitious Newtonian forces"?

Don't play word salad with me, knuckle-dragging Neanderthal punk.
"Fictitious" has no place in physics no matter what the lying shithead
Roberts says.
"SR is strictly valid only in a flat Lorentzian manifold with the
topology of R^4. This of course is a very poor model of the world we
inhabit.
But physics is not math, and we often use approximations. SR is
approximately valid" -- Roberts.
Newtonian Mechanics is exactly valid, SR (and GR) is a piss poor
and useless approximation loaded with word salad and f.ck-all to do
with physics.
