"its hard to win against a smart person, but its damn near impossible to win an argument with a stupid person."
-
I was a "Flat Earther" for 4 years......then, I turned 5.
-
The scariest thing is not that they think the earth is flat. It the belief that if it were, people would spend trillions of dollars and dedicate countless lifetimes to convincing us it wasn’t.
-
The interesting part of the plane experiment. A jetliner pitches up 3 degrees when at cruising altitude. The level showed this perfectly.
-
As they say, "The Flat Earth Society has members all around the globe."

« Arguing with a flat earther is like playing chess with a pigeon, no matter how good you are, the pigeon would knock the pieces, shit on you, and claim himself as the winner »
-
I don't think flat earth people take their own "belief" seriously. It's a social club, something to belong to, like Star Trek conventions are to Trekkies.
-
How can these flat earthers watch the sunset and say wow flat earth is amazing
-
I just got kicked out of a flat earth group on FB. All I did was asked if the 6 foot social distance has pushed anyone off the edge of the earth yet.
-
If earth is flat explain why my life is going downhill constantly
-
The horizon is 11.4 miles away that is when things start to disappear it's actually kinda weird just watching the top part of a superstructure over the horizon every sailor knows that
-
Supposedly a few years ago, two guys decided to make a joke about the earth being flat! They did it to see what would happen and lo and behold, idiots took to it being serious!😂
-
Fun fact: "The flat earth society has members all around the globe."
-
Stop body shaming earth we all know earth is thiccc...😤
-
I really think the last part of the video is the most meaningful and spot on. A lot of people today who don't believe ANY of what mainstream media says fall into the group of people who feel they need to see everything with their own eyes to believe it.
-
A lack of basic education and knowledge has made this situation worse. When it’s easier to believe in vast conspiracies over overwhelming evidence of the facts, your education system has failed
-
Remember before the internet, we thought ignorance was just lack of information? Yeah, that wasn't it.
-
The only thing that flat earthers have to fear, is sphere itself.

Tides of the oceans on a 12 hour cycle prove we live on a sphere
