Dad being a rabid fascist wasn't upsetting but MeToo allegations are?

That's correct, because space isn't moving relative to either the car or the light beam, so the law holds.

However, the law that you can't travel through space faster than the speed of light still holds.
Because space itself is moving - expanding. So the speed that space is moving in that area + the speed of light > the speed of light.

Actually, we know that faster than light travel is possible, just not observable. The universe is far bigger than the bit we can see because beyond the bit we can see it's travelling away from us faster than the speed of light. Equally, beings living in that bit can't see us for the same reason.

Agreed. It has been at least 20 years since I wrote cheque for anything and the only time these days that I even use cash is either when a plumber or builder wants paying that way or I'm going abroad on holiday.

Says who? You keep saying shite like that with no supporting evidence then get all sniffy when people assume you're just making up bollocks because your idol hasn't yet formed an advisory committee to let him know what's his arse and what's his elbow.
