Most likely, US vs China. Our Secretary of State recently disavowed "One 
China, Two Systems" policy. Maybe not featured in this following link, but 
the disavowal makes sense given what China has been doing in Hong Kong. AG

For me, all I need to see is which companies are doing the censoring? Which 
universities are censoring for the "safety of the students"-even if the 
students are the aggressors? Which banks, and corporations are now threatening 
money cutoffs? We had 7 months of sporadic riots and the liberals (which I 
sometimes side with) and now they freak out when conservatives targets the 
capital. Could that be a conspiracy too? Possibly, or maybe it was Bastille Day 
sort of? 
Is this merely a spell of international madness due to the plague? Not sure, 
but I tend to look to the royals of 2013 across Europe, pissing away what 
stability they had built before, in their nationalist competition over land and 
power. The destabilization that followed produced the Soviet takeover of mother 
Russia, and the Treaty of Versailles, the German hyperinflation, and later the 
depression which became the Great Depression, yadda yadda etc. So, maybe this 
time it will be Globalism that triggers the wars and revolutions? 
My guess is that if a conspiracy occurred, it was the billionaire$ wanting 
their China money back, because that what occurred under Captain Orange, was 
the big tariffs. What about the near future with new leaders? It depends on how 
the economy goes, if the lockdowns from 19 continue way past mass vaxing, war, 
peace, all the fun stuff. Possibly a national split? We shall see...
You all were doing so well with the Born discussions too! Shucks!

I don't think you're disagreeing with me.   I'm saying you have only 
measured something when it is entangled with you and with the 
environment.  The "friend", as I understand the experiment, is entangled 
with the system but not with the environment.

 You grossly misunderstand MWI. There are no "same other"
 worlds. The worlds that arise at each trial are different in 
 precisely one
 way and one way only: the eigenvalue recorded for the experiment. 
 The
 different eigenvalues will then give rise to a "wave of 
 differentiations"
 as the consequences of that singular difference ramifies, causing 
 the
 different worlds generated by the original experimental difference 
 to
 multiply. "World" really means a unique configuration of the 
 universal wave
 function, so two worlds at different trials can't possibly be the 
 "same
 world", and yes, there is only one measurement in each.

Decoherence should be irrelevant. Whether or not you (considered as some 
given physical system) have measured something, should not only depend 
on the entanglement between the measured system and those that belong to 
you.

The "friends" are quantum 1-degree-of-freedom systems, so they don't

 From that response I take it you have abandoned your attempt to poke 
 logical 
 holes in the Many Worlds Interpretation and instead have resorted to a 
 pure emotional appeal; namely that there must be a fundamental law of 
 physics that says anything Alan Grayson finds to be odd cannot exist, 
 and Alan Grayson finds many Worlds to be odd. Personally I find Many 
 Worlds to be odd too, although it's the least odd of all the quantum 
 interpretations, however I don't think nature cares very much if you or I 
 approve of it or not. From experimentation it's clear to me that if Many 
 Worlds is not true then something even stranger is.

 In first trial, the MWI postulates other worlds comes into 
 existence. Same other worlds in second trial? Same other worlds in 
 third 
 trial, etc? Where does the MWI assert these other worlds are the 
 SAME other 
 worlds? Unless it does, you only have ONE measurement in each of 
 these 
 worlds. No probability exists in these other worlds since no 
 ensemble of 
 measurements exist in these other world. AG

 You grossly misunderstand MWI. There are no "same other" 
 worlds. The worlds that arise at each trial are different in 
 precisely one 
 way and one way only: the eigenvalue recorded for the experiment. 
 The 
 different eigenvalues will then give rise to a "wave of 
 differentiations" 
 as the consequences of that singular difference ramifies, causing 
 the 
 different worlds generated by the original experimental difference 
 to 
 multiply. "World" really means a unique configuration of the 
 universal wave 
 function, so two worlds at different trials can't possibly be the 
 "same 
 world", and yes, there is only one measurement in each.
