Caudwell's Crisis in Physics does some of this but for quantum mechanics. You'd love the read.

Really its done science first approach then dialectics to examine the environment your project's developed in for anything weird that will diminish understanding, then fix and repeat since there's no such thing as perfection in reality. You don't go in with dialectics first, that won't do you good and just make you overly rigid without proper knowledge and limit your understanding of the situation at hand leading to silly errors. Gotta ground yourself in what is known of reality first.

It is neat for thought experiments for project design too and is a way to break out of the 'its x or y or a mere continuum' to noticing 'gee this doesn't fit my data nor my problem, necessity v sufficiency for instance develops from this line of approach (and others, there are many tools in the tool kit, dia is just one) and is beyond helpful in life sciences.

Agencies and some academic-business thinktank circles (lots of overlap between the two) do a lot of thinking 'games' like this to generate a ton of ideas or find hidden connections without diamat or spending a whole lot of time studying by trying to use 'creativity' pretty much alone as a crutch.

AdAway may work on many android-type devices, worth looking into for a smart tv.

Joke's on you, at my employment/wage rate I'm never paying off these loans.

Been here, just the symptoms becoming obvious to all.

I figured this was some sort of show for more money, like a construction contractor rounding up the crew and showing up at the boss' house at 3am because they aren't paying enough and pissed everyone off.

Back during the build up to the Holocaust the Nazis would use the groomer slander on Jews and other groups they sought to genocide.
