Nothing. Made up bullshit. If it was a fabric, ask them what's at the end of that fabric or where is that fabric laying on and see them seethe and even meltdown.

Maybe it's a fluid, actually. That would explain "gravity lensing".

Nobody fucking knows. Anyone who pretends they do is a charlatan selling religious bullshit, or someone who has confused their abstract symbol manipulation for the reality their symbol manipulation seems to describe.

It's not retarded, it's honest. Unfortunately physicists seem to be incapable of honesty and (really for the love of god, their funding relies on it) want you to believe that their map is itself the territory.

There is a way to explain everything with words. If you can't and have only equations, then you do not understand it truly.

I wouldn't use the word "fabric" to explain pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. It's more like "there's a four-dimensional space where we can't exactly talk about distance, but we can still define something like distance to describe how points on it are connected".

We actually met an uncontacted tribe in the Amazon jungle a few years ago and while they came out of the jungle brandishing their spears and wearing their loinclothes they said: "dude come on, you gotta do something about all the drug runners from Argentina! Their helicopters fly overhead constantly and we get shot when we get too close to their drug farms!"

No joke, they knew about modern society and everything because they traded with their neighbors who aren't stupid because of course they did.

Space (or rather space-time) isn't necessarily a vast void of emptiness, per se, but kind of like a substance in of itself, where being inside it is (sort of) similar to being inside a body of water, where whatever object moving within it pushes the water (or space) around it.

I don't know if you've ever dived deep to the bottom of a swimming pool that had bits of dry leaves resting at the floor, but you may have noticed how your movements are able to push those leaf bits around, even if you were only inches away. Or if you've ever try grabbing them, and see how some of them squeezes out of your hand.

Space *kinda* works like this (at least, they're conceptually similar ). Objects (or rather: massive objects) push and distort the space and gravity around them. Which may not seem like much, but you can observe it in areas with extremely high gravitational fields, like black holes, where the gravity is so strong, it can even deform (and trap) simple light rays.

because there are negative proper times (pseudo-distances) and two points in spacetime can have a zero proper time between them (when they’re on the lightcone).

So what you're saying is that the moving portal swallows some space, in which the cube is stationary. So the cube will appear to fly out and suddenly stop as the moving portal stops (and ceases to actively swallow space).
