How many of you believe the Earth is flat? Go.......

It’s a good thing you are here then

Hey, at least you finally STFU about drag queens and the Covid vaxxx.

I was never the one to bring them up, so that’s on you guys whether you want to hear about them or not.

Those two topics were your personal crusade here for months.

Own your own bullshit, bro.

Anyone who believes in a flat earth should do their bit for humanity and have themselves neutered.

it’s not my fault a bunch of snowflakes started threads about that stuff

I see everyone is awake and posting

I'm heading to the cabin. Have a great weekend

Be swell brother. Drive safe. Looks like rain is gonna put a damper on some of my weekend money making operations on saturday unfortunately.

It's more fun to me if I imagine earth as a mysterious realm. I'm not going to fit with the science or flat earth people especially since I have to haul my firewood uphill.

I think the world will always be mysterious to us the more we zoom out, or in. Entomology is far more fascinating to me than cosmology. Amazing shit happens around us every second of every day.

Oh dear.
Every one of these “proofs” is false.

> Horizon curvature is not visible until an altitude of around 10.6km / 30,000 feet
> Water does not “find its level”. The relationship between mass and gravity pulls everything to the Earth’s centre, including water. Water curves and this is visible at the same altitude as stated above.
> Rivers flow due to gravity, which is based on mass. The suggestion that they should be exempt from the laws of physics and flow uphill on a curved Earth shows a complete lack of even a primary school education.

Who’s stupider - the moron who creates these videos or those who believe them?

I'd rather be stupid than a liar. But I'm not either. You can't see the curvature of the earth at 30k feet. Have you ever flown in a commercial jet? And show me some "curved" water while you're at it. Try to prove it with lasers or something. Good luck! ...It is amusing to watch the mental contortions of brains put in a box by their owners. Yeah, someone else owns your brain but you think you do. And you're a "teacher" putting other people's brains in a box. Good boy FIDO

I like the adrenaline. And it’s safer than starting fist-fights.

It's fun to share ideas. Now we are in the age of people who hate others for sharing ideas. I'd like the share the idea that that isn't a healthy way to live.

 

[acceptance]

It is gratifying to share ideas, test ideas, learn things, and so on. That is very threatening to some people — oddly enough the most so for people steeped in academia.

Unbelievable. You just can't grasp the scale of the Earth.

Sure I can. It's about 7,900 miles diameter. @jdel77 said you can see the curvature at 30k feet. Others say higher. I've never seen it curved. Furthermore, curvature is roughly 8" per mile squared. You should be able to demonstrate the curvature of water with that figure. Please let us know how that goes.

 

[acceptance]

Check out the Bedford Level experiment. Whenever ball Earthers lose an experiment, they invent some sort of "Atmospheric" effect. Don't believe those lyin' eyes!

He's just repeating the talking points he was taught. Letting go of that heliocentric brainwashing is difficult because it's so ingrained. Whatever will I do if the earth isn't a round ball floating on nothing through the vastness of "space". "Space" lol. Prototype new speak.

Refraction and parallax issues might be why they are misled into thinking it's a ball earth as well. Since our perspective, our vantage point, as humans is limited we have no real way to confirm or deny what's happening up there. I see it as as speculative whether we are talking about globe earth, flat earth, concave earth, convex earth, etc

There was a video I can no longer find that showed how the sun could function via refraction over a domed flat or concave earth. I believe it was Shackleton who took a balloon way up into the atmosphere and said earth's edges were upturned. He must've forgotten his go pro....
