Bringing balance to the universe: New theory could explain missing 95 percent...

But wouldn't this be a step back towards plasma cosmology? My understanding of that theory is that plasmas would make up the supposed empty space in the universe in double layers reacting oppositely of one another.

A step back? Looks like a definite step forward to me. But in any case, not really sure why you think why negative mass particles must mean plasma cosmology? Whatever that exactly is?

You've not heard of The Plasma Cosmology? Look up "electric universe"

"Step back" here meant suggesting something that, to me, looks like an idea from an older theory, not any sort of regression in a negative or pejorative sense. But I'm very very far from knowledgeable on any branch of physics, so the connection may well be shallow and coincidental, even a misunderstanding on my part.

From what I've read, it seems that there are major problems with fitting Farnes ideas to our observations, so perhaps the paper has been over hyped in the media.

The media is doing us no favors on so many fronts.  No clue if this one ends up being another example of poor media work, but their role in amping up the anti-science rhetoric is real to my view.  Its scary.
