Dark Matter is Dumb Science. here’s why. We have an equation on how the big bang “works”.

Leave aside the Big Bang for a minute, the problem is that Newton's laws of physics break down when we observe galaxies. There are two critical observations that currently have no explanation:

1. The gravitation pull of a galaxy is about six times the strength it should be.

2. The stars on the outer rim of a galaxy move at the same speed as stars closer to its massive black hole center. Newton says these outer stars should move much slower. For example, Pluto revolves around the sun much slower than Mercury - Newton is good here.

So far, there are two main theories to predict this phenomenon:

1. There is dark matter we haven't found yet that explains the gravitational irregularities of galaxies.

2. The laws of gravity change when we get to big structures like galaxies.

The point of this article is that the second theory is gaining popularity among physicists. So you may end up being right: dark matter is BS.

There’s been attempts to modify Newton in the past. I remember reading an article on such an attempt in Science back in the 1980s. All came to naught, this might be different.

“2. The laws of gravity change when we get to big structures like galaxies.”

Einstein, 1915

The premise is wrong:
"The stars on the outer rim of a galaxy move at the same speed as stars closer to its massive black hole center

Black holes are a myth.
1. black holes have never been observed.
2. No objects have been observed that is pulled by a black hole.
3. The bases of a black hole is based on the mass of a star which is falsely believed to be a gas. They're not they're a solid.

Black holes are based on faith of a none observed or proven theory.
Black holes seem to be distortions generated between binary stars magnetic fields.

I've wondered about that myself. What if the laws of physics... ALL of them... vary based on the location you are at? What if Planck's value is different based on where you are in the universe? What if the Boltzmann constant varies? What if the rest mass of a proton changes, as your location changes?
