There's a lot of flat earthers out there. It has to do with the fact that reality is plastic and almost dreamlike. The scientific method for example doesn't account for the psychological influence of intention that creates a self fulfilling prophecy to verify the experiment itself, it's like circular logic. When you understand that the idea that the earth is flat and there is something beyond the plane is not so stupid.

This.

I get the feeling it's largely a counter reaction to the rise of science celebrities like NDT and Bill Nye, and general internet edginess. I think flatearthers just like getting a rise out of the know-it-all group.

Some people only go so far in their education and they think they can analyze the world with fourth grade understanding of physics.

Either they are trolls or they lack the reasoning skills to conclude that FET is pure hogwash started by trolls.

Because the Expanding Earthers aren't quite as popular.

Gravity only pushes down. If the Earth was round people would fall off when it tilted on its axis
