No. To many things, including your amazing amount of confusion.
I can't prove it to you, because that requires more knowledge of
general relativity than I have at the moment.
You are using an antiquated concept from SR, to guess about effects
that don't exist. You insist they do, but you have no idea about GR.
Gravity does not exist in SR. SR's spacetime is flat. Black holes mean
nothing in SR because they do not exist - they exist only in GR. SR
only exists locally.
