Would be good to add your take rather than just linking - although good too, to know what else is out there.
When I first created the Steemit Community Steem Links, I noticed immediately that most people would just respond without having read the article, which is okay. But what I had hoped for was finding people who were genuinely interested in the kinds of topics I enjoy. I really found none; I mean zero! I didn't want to create that Community, but the Steemit Team suggested it and offered to help curate once in a while. What I had originally intended was to simply use the #steemlinks tag. You see, what motivated me to start doing this was that Facebook would not allow me to share these links on my page. On Steemit, I didn't find like-minded folks; Hive, got downvoted; Blurt... you guys are awesome! I have been able to connect with people who are actually willing to engage on these topics.
Secondly, I really like to hear out other people's thoughts on these subjects, even if they don't read the article entirely. I don't agree with everything I share, but I like that I can share it. And yes, I like being rewarded for it! 🤣 😎 But I'm also liking very much the comments and dialogues that take place here on Blurt. I have never rewarded comments the way I do now!
Right - these topics are dangerous.
They may not always look it... but there be dragons lurking deep inside.

There's a great docu called Forbidden Knowledge - still on YT, I hope - that deals with dangerous physics, and how appallingly those pioneers were treated by other so-called scientists. Theories that now are standard. Boltzmann is particularly tragic.
Is actually Dangerous Knowledge

can't quickly find the full vid, used to be on YT.
Wow! Yes! I actually have the whole series, I think there are three parts. I saw it years ago, and still have it on one of my external hard-drives. By the way, they were all Dynamic Assertives! 🤪 🤓
yeah, a little gem of a series IMO.
Altho in terms of huge groundbreaking ideas, I'd have added Bernhard Riemann, but he doesn't fit into the tragic death narrative - albeit tragically young. All the 4 died by the hell of other people! Their incomprehension manifested as malice.
I used to show these vignettes to some students - for them to try and understand the meanings behind the symbols.
Yes, indeed a gem of a series. That's why I downloaded it for my archives. I suppose you could also add John Nash in there as well. The Dynamic Assertive mind can often be so ahead of its time, and so far outside of the box, that it becomes impossible for others to connect with or comprehend them. I would even go so far as to hypothesize that many insane asylums are full of Dynamic Assertives, and Creatives Assertives as well; artists have throughout history been known to be considered crazy.
