gollark: It's not saying that.
gollark: As best I can tell this is saying something about a "gravitomagnetic" effect and (best attempt to parse the insanity) you're trying to go from some reference to that to "so obviously something something gravity magnetism" to "everything is electromagnetism, electric universe, intergalactic Birkeland currents".
gollark: Not really?
gollark: Well, see, you're effectively just trying to push a ton of random papers and jargon with no explanation, so no.
