>are they at least accelerating petroleum particles? perhaps coal?

Are you retarded? They fuse them together ie fusion. The idea of studying such high energy collisions is to better understand the particles involved with fusion, to make commercial nuclear fusion usable. The same processes in ITER are also seen in CERN, and both worked with comparable American experiments (the TMX, the NIF, amongst others) to create a subatomic model that allows use to modify peculiar phenomena with the electroweak and electrostrong forces. In particular, entanglement phenomena. The rudimentary concept behind quantum computing, quantum radar, and nuclear fusion (which, through entanglement, is easier to achieve).

Sometimes I really wonder if any of you bothered to actually read what CERN is or what a particle is or why electricity matters and why studying electricity is important.

Tax money is not yours to decide what is done with it or to benefit from it. Once you pay isnt yours to say anything.
That being said, society as a whole benefits from projects like the LHC. How? Because without it you cant have physicists. Without a big science budget you wont have physicists working, then your society will implode because there wont be anyone left to know the physics relevant to engineering and your bridges will collapse.

You are desperately moving the goalpost. The discussion was the LHC, ie a cash sinkhole project that benefits nobody. There are unending other sectors of practical use that physicists can find employment. Like, oh, Chip manufacturing? We're about to start WWIII over taiwan because physicists have been fucking around on useless meme projects for 30 years instead of advancing the most practical/important technology of the past century, and Taiwan has pulled ahead and created a monopoly that China wants to control.

Let's take two scenarios:
1. Thousands of workers design and build an accelerator complex, apprentices and students are trained on site, workers hone their skills and masters advance their field, be it boring, computing, power distribution, superconducting etc. Even if the project is completely useless, you have new techniques, professionals improving their skills as well as newly trained professionals.

2. You don't build it, no one gets trained, now new technologies are developed and while the workers sit on their asses and live off welfare they slowly forget what they learnt and their skills deteriorate due to the lack of practice.

Do you. Do you really believe, that scientists who are driven by fundamental research would build chips for your new smartphone if we take away their accelerators?
>focusing on something that no one in this thread can explain how it benefits anybody
No one claims it directly benefits anybody. It's fundamental research. Do you know what this means, ESL faggot? Why must things directly bring benefits? Why is the best benefit you come up with fucking computer chips for your smart toaster and Xbox?

How many people do you know who quit working in the private industry to join academia and vice versa? Do you think it's easier to upgrade or to downgrade. Hint: you don't get into CERN if you're a corporate wageslave. But you can always leave CERN and basically work wherever you want. I can't imagine a single employer who sees a CV and goes "hmm, it says here you've worked at CERN for the past 10 years. I'm sorry, but we are looking for someone with a better background"

I hope when you have an accident you won't take an X-ray scan that uses pixel chips similar to the ones in particle detectors. I hope you won't take an MRI scan, which is basically a calorimeter. I hope you won't undergo proton or ion therapy when you have cancer. You need particle accelerators for that which we most certainly would not have without institutes such as CERN or Fermilab.

>Well, tell me what sequitur from these two facts.
LOL there can't be a non sequitur among facts, do you even know what a non sequitur is? The only non sequitur is your false conclusion that LHC is being funded because people support it. It's being funded because people are too ignorant to grasp what it is. Something simpler to grasp, like the ISS, is being scraped. Do you see the common theme here? People have decent influence over what gets funded, but they have to understand it's being funded first. They hear "nuclear physics" and think oh it must be an energy plant or something. They don't grasp that the money is going to useless partical physics pet projects that will never, ever benefit them.
>that scientists who are driven by fundamental research would build chips for your new smartphone if we take away their accelerators?
Of course. Do you even know why Taiwain is the industry leader in chip manufacturing? Because a bunch of Chinese autistic physicists left commie China to Taiwan and put in the most research in the 1980s. Everybody was rejecting the novel lithographic research at the time that would evolve into semi conductor manufacturing because nobody was focusing on potential future profits. But Taiwain was and the government heavily invested into it and it paid off big time.
>Why must things directly bring benefits?
Because I'm fucking paying for them...

Yes, I see the common theme that you're pretending to be ignorant, yet you're actually just spreading lies.
The ISS is not being scrapped for lack of funding. It wasn't planned to operate last 2020, yet it's operation was extended to 2024. At least 80% of the Russian components have reached their end of life. Relying on outdated, unsafe hardware is not the same as lack of funding. Russia not replacing them is not the Europeans scrapping the ISS. Ending a mission four years later than planned is not the same as scrapping it.

The more you talk, the more you undermine any point you might even have had in the beginning. You're a sad clown. But one more thing:
>literally all physicists in the world rely on these chips for their research.
lolno. We produce out chips with a 150nm process in Germany. We don't give a shit about the latest 5nm Applel M5s crap.

Taiwan is the lynchpin of the cutting edge chipfab industry by US design; they gave Taiwan this economically vital function within the 'rules based' order so that advanced nations would be de-facto obligated to protect her from a PLA assault. Now that they're not so confident they can successfully do that, TSMC's finally started building a superfab on US soil.

CCP always has and always will want Taiwan to consolidate political power over the Chinese people, and to shatter the 'first island chain' containment. The foundries are just icing on the cake.

Some people who will never ever ever have what it takes to be in science just don't understand the meaning of basic research.
Research means looking into something you DONT REALLY KNOW ABOUT. Could it be profitable? Maybe. Maybe you discover something usable or maybe you discover some very interesting things that are still interesting even if they don't generate "profit" which the cattle majority qualifies as things that help them get more food and masturbation devices, as if they didn't have enough.
But maybe none of that happens. Or it happens in some time, like centuries from now, still it's worth it. Ultimately it's still a good thing that money is taken by force from thousands of idiots who don't really qualify as human beings so that us people who have souls can advance the part of humanity that is truly different from animals. Spending 100 billion dollars on an experiment that has a 1% chance of generating any interesting result is much more justifiable than giving even one penny to the average consooomer. If why this is so is hard for you to grasp don't even bother, spend your life in the best hedonism you can muster as this is what's gonna happen either way as my side has the truly big guns and there's nothing you can do to change the outcome , but make no mistake, this is a basic objective undeniable truth which you cant not know if your mind is worth anything, it is the most basic of basics and you should be building me a monument merely for taking the bother to say this in a place where human cattle also lurks.
