Current Events > What IS the flat-Earth theory anyway?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Like...what's the premise? How do they try to explain it?

Maybe I'm too entrenched in my delusional view that the world is round but I can't see how anyone can possibly explain this.

Dey think Antarctica is a huge wall, dey think da sun is a hologram and dey think we're in a huge dome

They theorize that there is no argument that's too stupid.

1-dimensional "earth is a line" theory >>>>>>> flat earth theory tbh

Is this shit real? I skimmed the faq, and it's all "no, that isn't true, this is". Gravity is false, things simply fall. What the fuck?

Turtles all the way down

They're asking the questions that NO ONE ELSE WILL ASK and consider themselves more enlightened for it.

What about Astronauts?

Most Flat Earthers think Astronauts have been bribed or coerced into their testimonies. Some believe they have been fooled or are mistaken.

Okay, this is a discussable point, hilarious as it is.

Why do they believe this? What gives them foundation to think "yep, they're being duped/duping us"? Is there any evidence that EVERY astronaut has been bribed and/or mistaken? What is the great conspiracy that is attempting to suppress this knowledge? Bribery doesn't just fall out of the sky.

Yeah, is it, though?

It's the common line of "person has evidence disputing your claim, accuse them of malicious intent". Many conspiracies subscribe to it.

It seems a little boring that beyond a certain size, everything has to be a ball.

"OH I JUST KNOW IT'S HAPPENING BECAUSE MY CLEARLY CORRECT STANCE DISAGREES. I HAVE TO PROVE NOTHING, THE BURDEN IS ON THEM," is not an argument.

Once you get past the indoctrination from schools about the "spherical earth", it all makes sense. You just need an open mind.

here watch this 90 minutes youtube video that makes my point

I always wondered how every single country on Earth could come to an agreement on keeping the secret and being able to cooperate and monitor every single square mile of the oceans to block people from seeking the truth. And how do they profit from all this?

A 4th grader could poke holes in this theory.

I won't say I believe it. I haven't done enough research yet.

90% trolling, 10% legit idiots.

Because every photo you see of the earth from space is a fish angle lens

and airplane windows either 1.) are curved to make the earth appear curved or 2.) plainly demonstrate that the earth is flat, just look at it
