String theory is a mathematical fraud engaged in for funding purposes only.

Any basic application of scientific method would discard it out of hand for its inability to produce a testable hypothesis.

String theory is perhaps the most controversial big idea in all of science today.

For my money, dark matter/energy takes that distinction.

Same with particle physics in the last 40 years and the bogus “discovery” of the Higgs boson. It’s all about getting govt. money and when the peasants that fund them start asking annoying questions, their answer is that we’re too stupid to understand it. I’m against further funding until they can coherently and provably tell us what we’re getting for our money.
