I can bring two magnets close to each other and feel their fields interact so I know fields are real. Why not more fields, idk. What holds atoms together? Fuck if I should know, probably more magic fields. In the point of view of a photon, it travels instantaneously to its destination? That seems fake.
From the point of view of a photon there's also no distance between the start and end point. In a (kinda stoned) sense light connects us to anything it touches. Like, woah dude
entanglement means this is true o.O
if you took a whole bunch of pairs of entangled particles and used them to make two black holes, the black holes would be entangled, and their interiors might be a connected space.

EDIT: just listen to the whole lecture lol, it rules
to clarify, the thought experiment of entangled black holes having connected interior spacetimes is not intended to be understood as something which could occur naturally. It's intended to illustrate the notion that the structure of spacetime itself might arise from entanglement interactions. i.e. the explicit emerging from the implicit.
Speaking of thinking dialectically, it seems clear to me that black holes embody a synthesis of the seemingly contradictory quantum and gravitational theories, and that moving our physics forward in a synthesis of those theories is helped by studying them.

it doesnt have a rest mass, it's got to run away from reality at the speed of light to exist.
