I just got off another post where the guy reckoned the moon landing is a hoax. Sigh.

Do you know I have known of just ONE person that I actually convinced "back" from the flat earth POV, but I guess he was teetering in the first place.

The thing that irritates the heck out of me is that once you give them an indisputable set of facts, they just go on with totally unrelated questions, and don't even refer back to the proofs.

If the world really were flat, I would purchase real estate on the edge, maybe build a high rise, just for the view! Can you imagine the fortune to be made on 'edge tours?' And if any of our fellow flat-earth-believing citizens can claim to take us to that edge, so that we might see for ourselves, let's go!! Oh, but they can't, can they? And they never will guide us to the 'edge of the Earth.'

So, 'Flat Earthers,' just shut the fuck up and go climb under the pre-historic rock where you and your ilk came from, and don't ever bother the sane majority again! That anyone wastes keystrokes and breath on these insane idiots is a testament to forbearance!

I just wonder at what motivates the flat earthers. What is their emotional payoff?

I know many flat earthers. This is my favorite response worth watching the entire series.

You are being too kind Palacinky they are worse than idiots

If the earth isn’t flat, then why aren’t the levels we buy at the hardware store slightly curved? Huh? The Conspiracy is yuge ...

These people are frightening! How can they think there is a giant conspiracy that every government from one generation to the next and in every country keep perpetrating on countless generations of people, and to what purpose are they doing it ? Lunatics is too mild a word to describe them.

I don't like how everybody is willing to concede that the world looks flat. No it doesn't, you don't observe the whole world but only a tiny portion of it. You can only see the world from very far away.
Those people are dumb btw. There's tons of proofs that are easily checked without going to space.
