Winning an argument with a smart person is difficult. Winning an argument with a stupid person is impossible
The only people that can beat a smart person in an argument is a stupid person. Because if it's two smart people they should be in agreement on the facts, therefore no argument.
Often true, but you do also get a LOT of people who are intelligent but refuse to accept the arguments of others because it's more important to be seen to be right than to be seen to be wrong.
COVID taught us that some would rather die than admit they were wrong.
I would put those under the stupid people category. Intelligence does not make you smart, it makes you informed.
My dad is this way.
Genuinely one of the smartest people I know. Absolutely will not consider any evidence that he's wrong. Even if there are literal mountains of evidence against him. He just wants things to be a certain way and refuses to be wrong about it.
You surely never heard the phrase "reasonable minds may differ"
Not about science, You may differ in theories and hypothesis, but not in hard science.
Theories are hard science. Evolution is a theory.
Even empiric evidence is not undisputed, as studies vary wildly and not every experiment can be reproduced.
Smart people wont typically disagree about simple stuff like the earth being a spheroid. But they disagree all the time.
Unless you're Kellyanne Conway and you have alternative facts.
Sry, but nothing is further than the truth. Just try to watch the top scientists in a field having a discussion. Claver people disagree A LOT. But about more interesting things that are actually unknown.
Oh yeah? Well I’m right and you’re wrong, so I win and you lose!
That's why we should euthanize them.
tides come in, tides come out, you can't explain that!!!
Tonight we steal the moon!
My boss thinks the moon is projected by the government to control us... Can't steal what isn't there!
Guess i’ll have to go back to californian CVS’s😔
How is this still a debate?
How are the actions of Jan 6 still a debate? Vote tampering? Vaccines and autism? and on and on and on
Exactly. Stupid people drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.
If I hear this nonsense, I just move on, thankful that I know who to ignore.
And they procreate
Which was a forgone conclusion since these people are arguing something we have known for literally centuries.
Curvature is pretty hard to see actually, mostly at our altitude on the ground I mean, so it’s very hard for a lot of uneducated people (and fucking idiots of course) to understand it. You just need to experiment a little bit to see its effects, so it is not for everyone to understand it, I guess 😝
Being intelligent doesn't necessarily make you more correct but it does make you better at arguing whatever point you're trying to make.
A lot of flerfs are not simply stupid people who have come to the incorrect conclusion about the earth based on some misunderstanding of the evidence that they've looked at. They're pseudo intellectual assholes. They pretend to, and want to be, hyper intellectual persons who can dominate other people intellectually. They get off on being able to adopt this absurd position and argue for it "better" than you. They start with the conclusion that the earth is flat (usually because bible with the addition of a heavily conspiratorial mindset) and then work backwards trying to find ways to dismiss any evidence that contradicts that conclusion and trying to ad hoc rationalise how any observations could work on a pizza land.
The flerf thought process is as follows:
The earth is flat
Some phenomena exists.
This phenomena must therefore work on a flat earth, we just need to figure out how.
This is why it's wrong for people to simply dismiss flerfs as being idiots; it's giving them far more credit than they deserve.
Dude had a couple of bangers then went unhinged. Always a pity when I have to unlike someone because they're a flat earther
Honestly I Care much less about flat earthers than anti vaxxers or chemtrail lunatics.
Sadly, they are usually a conbination of those three
Yeah, the problem is not to believe in that Earth is flat, that stones have magic powers, aliens draw cute little circles in crops or whatever. The issue is that once you opened your mind at the idea that science can't be trust, either because you think scientists are idiots or because you think they're liars, it becomes easy to believe any other theory wich could be dangerous for yourself or others like antivax, cults, or hate groups.
Conspiracy theorists always get me in the first half. Nothing wrong with asking questions and questioning authority. It's when they pick the dumbest idea imaginable as their alternative answer that they lose me.
Conspiracy theorists like to pretend they're sceptical. They're not. First of all, they almist always accuse a faceless 'authorities'. Who are they? You know, them, the ones who lie. Second of all they're not asking questions, they're giving answers. They're doing the work backward, they get to a conclusion and then will start questioning the part of the official statement they don't like. If the part in question is too solid to attack whatsoever, then you put the "they're manipulating the results/the authorities hide the truth on that" card. Nothing wrong with questioning, but that's not what they're doing.
Religion has the same effect on the mind.
As a Christian, I sincerely apologize on behalf of us who are actually sensible for the fools in the above picture.
It seriously hurts my heart knowing there are real kind-hearted Christians out there that get lumped in with those that are so full of paranoia and hate.
Being a flat earther already requires you to reject so much science in the first place. It's hardly a surprise that they often jump to those things as well.
When you are already deep down the global conspiracy and the Government/big pharma/da Jooz are out to get you rabbit hole, its much easier to believe they are out to get you in other areas too.
Flat eathers, moon landing deniers, crop circle believers, anti-vaxxers, etc. are all the same kind: They don't care about the truth, they just want to feel like they know something that all the "smart people" dismiss. But anti-vaxxers are the only ones who actively harm others on an overall basis.
How often has this happened?
More frequently than you’d think
More than once in my case which is still way too many.
I remember a different but similar issue where I’d watch YouTubers that didn’t do political videos but on twitter especially after 2016 would start promoting the worst crap.
Well, only two nickels, but it’s shocking it happened more than once.
I think this demonstrates how often flat-earthers are really just looking for attention.
It’s not a debate. The internet has just given a microphone for the idiots to spit into
To be fair he always had a microphone, it's kinda his thing
Even worse, the original statement is wrong. That photo is from the top of Stone Mountain, a 1,000ft high rock dome 12 miles outside Atlanta (and Home of the Klu Klux Klan!!). Those “cities” are actually the same City. Left is downtown Atlanta and the right is the Buckhead district. They’re only 4 miles apart, not 16. I’m not doing the math, but that will make the visible curvature even less.
Yeah, the dude is surprised that two districts of the same city that still fit within the 285 circle can be seen together while being like 1,700 ft above ground level
It’s about 0.058. 4/24901 = curvature/360, so 4/24901*360 = curvature = 0.058. They’re the same fraction of a circle. However, this just tells us the angle between the two cities (or the two parts of the same city) from the centre of the Earth. That doesn’t actually tell us how curved the distance would be between the two areas of the city.
If the arclength (curved surface distance) is 4 miles, we can compare that length to what the length of a straight line (uncurved) distance would be by using a triangle with two side lengths equal to the radius of the Earth and an opposite angle of 0.058 degrees. Doing that, we find that the straight line distance between the two points (ie. how far they’d be from each other if the Earth were flat) would be…4.0 miles.
Flat Earthers just don’t understand how big the Earth is, man. It’s really big.
Home of the Klu Klux Klan!!
How am I both suprised and not surprised at the same time?
The first meetings were held at the base. One of the owners was a grand poobah wizard. The Venable family eventually donated it to the State, but not until part of the current relief sculpture was carved. Yeah. The world’s largest bas relief sculpture is on the north side of the mountain. Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and Jefferson Davis proudly ride horses across the face of mountain. The State actually finished it after they took it over in the 50s. Yeah. Tax dollars at work to remind black people that we did it once, we can do it again. I’m a geologist and love the mountain for what it is. A big old rock. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stone_Mountain
Because it is not about science, it is about identity.
Watch Folding Ideas' In Search Of A Flat Earth - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTfhYyTuT44
In the second half he goes into detail about flat earther's ideological connections to christofacism, QAnon and other insane cults, and how social media alogrithms favouring their nonsense served as a funnel to expand their numbers.
I loved that guy's NFT breakdown too.
His videos in general are pretty great. He did one called "Why it's rude to suck at World of Warcraft" which was super interesting. And the one he did picking apart Nostalgia Critics review of Pink Floyd's The Wall was ridiculous but excellent
I just said this in another comment but I left facebook in 2019 just because I was fed up with it, but created an account again this year for marketplace. My feed is FULL of flat earth, anti-evolution, and conservative meme stuff. That seems to be what facebook pushes to people when they have limited profile info and no friends.
I get that it's about identity to a lot of these people. I think where most of us get lost is who, exactly, would choose to have their identity be "I am dumber than most people from the dark ages!"?
It's more like "I don't like reality, because it's complex and scary and difficult to comprehend. I'm going to make my own reality where everything is simple and nothing unpleasant can challenge my sensibilities". Then grifters like Alex Jones and Trump can get in there, latch onto it and exploit it for all its worth.
They dont want to be right as in "does the research and find out the truth" but instead they want to be right as in "I get to say whats true and what isnt"
Thats why they usually like trump so much, "He says it as it is and wont let such menial things as 'facts' prove him wrong"
Saying blatantly wrong things without anyone being able/allowed to disprove them is a show of power to them, after all whats more powerful than getting to define what truth is?
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are just flying completely straight
Honestly, the biggest problem flat earthers seem to have is their sense of scale.
They just can't wrap their heads aroud how big of a ball it is, and so expect to see dramatic curves everywhere.
I don't think it helps that all the space station stuff has a fish eye lens, makes the earth look like a little ball. If the Earth were the size of a basketball, the ISS would be just quarter of an inch above it (6.35mm)!
Yes. Yes, you may.
Yo mamma so fat, when she went sky diving, the landing made the Earth flat.
Not the answer we need, but the answer we want…
I just don’t understand flat earthers. Say their right and the earth is flat, then what? What will change about everyone’s life with that knowledge? And if nothing is going to change then why was there a conspiracy to hide this information.
Physics. The laws of physics would change as it would prove there is no core or gravity that pulls the material to the center creating the spheres we call planets. It would actually be huge and any scientist that can prove it would be winning Nobel prizes and setting off a brand new scientific revolution about the cosmic knowledge of universe.
The implication is that if the Earth is flat, then all our understanding of the way physics works is false, therefore God. It's a religious thing more than anything else.
Yep. It's like Christians whose communion wine was spiced with led and formaldehyde. I have some pictures of a booth they did one year. It's all bible science that and insane bullshit this. Naturally I took a bunch of selfies in front of them laughing while dressed like a witch
If they are right, it means they are smart and everyone else is dumb. People believe in conspiracy theories because knowing "what they don't want you to know" makes life more interesting.
I rejoined facebook recently and my feed is absolutely full of flat earth content, conservative memes, anti-evolution stuff. It's ridiculous. I have no idea why it's shoving so much of that shit in my face. I have a physics degree. I'm an atheist. I have a ton of LGBT+ friends. It's so weird.
OH and container homes and electrician / plumbing content - that's the other half of my feed.
You know what's funny/sad/scary? Before social media, it really wasn't a debate. 25 years ago, you never heard anyone pop off about the Earth being flat. Social media has allowed these dipshits to find each other and become a community of dipshits, out there validating each other's moronic takes.
I honestly thought these folks had managed to prove the earth is round all by themselves and then quietly got a new hobby. No?
You're expecting actual rationality from their type. You sweet summer child.
Their new hobby was Q anon.
One argument I never hear: if you were able to perceive the curve of the Earth, the planet would have to be extremely small. Like, small enough the circumference would be reasonably walkable (if not for those pesky oceans, of course).
You can totally perceive the curve, just not the left to right curve. You can see the back to front curve, that is what you are seeing when. looking at the horizon.
True. But my thoughts that are hard to articulate are something like "ok, if you want to see a curve in the picture above, draw it. But keep going until you have a nearly perfect sphere. See how small it ends up?"
You can tell them anything you want and they will just reply, "Nuh-uh".
I’m still not convinced that flat earthers are real and aren’t just internet trolls. I’ve never seen one out in the wild off the internet.
One of my childhood friends actually told me that the earth was flat,luckily I was able to convince him otherwise.
Agreed. They just seem like attention seekers.
My ex’s father unironically believed the earth was flat, aliens were covered up, and that the sun doesn’t set it just gets smaller and smaller till the light isn’t visible anymore . Dude worked at Maxwell Airforce Base for the longest time and still thought government was hiding everything from everyone like some 1984 bullshit. I attempted to show him how season couldn’t exist, how flight patterns couldn’t existed and how photos of city scapes rising from the water couldn’t exist on a flat earth. To no avail
Haven’t heard about the sun getting smaller, but I did see something where people were convinced the sun was changing color over the decades, calling nasa out on their faulty sky box or some shit.
They're real in so much as there are people who are desperately trying to convince you that the earth is flat. But after a while there are only 2 types of flat earthers left.
People who are so dumb that they don't know what they believe, they just regurgitate the talking points without thinking about them.
People who have tied their identity and/or religion to flat earth that deep down know the earth is not flat but are incapable of facing the embarrassment of admitting they are wrong.
They’re probably the same people.
Do you go to a lot of not very regulated street and art fairs? I have a bunch of selfies in front of them a first Friday a couple years ago. They're always on the outskirts because they're insane and there is no way an art fest is going to give profitable street space to insane people without money.
This is the kind of cleverness that keeps me coming back to this sub.
Isn’t that ray of sunshine even curved slightly?
I don’t even think they actually believe it, I think it’s an internet attention thing. Even Columbus and everyone who sponsored the expedition knew the earth was round. He literally tried to sail around it to India and smacked into the americas. Humans have known for a fact that the earth is round for a long ass time.
Most people who understand this got a proper education, flat earthers didn't.
I think a lot of them do believe it as part of their religion. if you believe in creationism, which scientific observation also refutes, why not a flat earth?
The originator of modern flat earth theory cited the Bible as evidence.
Maybe some but I would be hard pressed to believe “a lot” of them do. There’s ports on the west coast that get goods from Asia every day. All you’d have to do to disprove that belief is watch a boat roll in.
I’m not saying a significant number of Christians believe in flat earth or even creationism, I’m saying that it’s likely that a significant majority of flat earthers are Christians who believe in creationism, as that is the origin of the idea.
We’ve seen flat earthers run experiments that prove the earth is round and still maintain their beliefs. It’s religious faith.
I’m not attacking you I promise. What I mean is, all the loud ones on social media posting flat earth and other obnoxious shit, those are the ones that are just doing it for clout. I have no doubt in my mind you’re right about Christians believing sky daddy made em all a flat playground to break all the toys on.
I met a dude who really believed it in real life. He let it slip drunk at a party, everyone clowned on him. He stuck to his guns and wouldn't back down. He eventually left angry. Sadly these people do exist.
The funny part is that Columbus got it WRONG.
He thought the earth was smaller around than it actually is.
People didn't want to fund his expedition not because they thought the earth was flat but because they correctly thought he had the radius wrong.
Then he got lucky stumbling into the Americans about where he incorrectly thought India was supposed to be.
Fun facts with tiny spark
Ancient Egyptians knew the Earth was round, ancient Greeks calculated the circumference of the Earth.
Everyone knew the Earth was round long before Colombus, it wasn't a new idea then. His thing was that he fucked up the math and thought that sailing West to China would be a viable thing.
I respect flat-earthers. I like how they dogmatically stick to their beliefs, even in face of overwhelming and irrefutable evidence. Special skill.
/s.
It's still a debate because the education system and media have failed us.
When i was a kid, everyone was told "your opinion can't be wrong"
Most people internalized that idiotic notion and run around with objectively wrong opinions, but believe themselves to be the geniuses and everyone else "brainwashed".
It's the core of anti-intellecutalism itself (anti-vax, creationist, climate denier, flat earther, whatever)
It’s still a debate because sane people keep arguing with them as if they’re arguing in good faith. They’re not. They aren’t people who simply don’t get the science. They’re people who reject science as a mechanism of gathering data and making empirical observations about the world. They are people whose worldview is incompatible with many facts that science has revealed, so they’re attacking science. They’re not simply confused. They’re hostile towards the methods of truth and objectivity. Treating them like students who just don’t get the science yet is a mistake and ironically legitimizes them to a lot of people’s eyes.
It's not a debate. It's just a contrary position to take on something that's been common knowledge for centuries at this point. Not even flat earthers actually believe in flat earth (though, I'm sure there are SOME that are genuinely stupid enough to believe their own bullshit). They just want to convince you that they do. In my mind, I usually chalk it up as a very elaborate troll.
Why is this a debate, because for some people it's a case of "but muh holy book"
Amazing. We can see stars in the sky, and if the earth were flat, we could see any light of any city of earth on a flat horizon, but...we cant. For obvious reasons. Flat earth is one of the dumbest conspiracies ever.
Flat earthers themselves have already proven the earth is not flat at least a few times now. They just refuse to believe it. There is no logic in their beliefs, it’s just a desperate effort to refuse admitting they are wrong.
Scientists know the earth is flat. They’re in on the conspiracy.
Yes, ALL of them.
I want this kind of confidence. To think that you're smarter than basically ALL scientists on earth - it's just unbelievable smh.
The city on the right is lower than the city on the left.
You can literally see the curve. These motherfuckers are DUMB
With that logic why can't you see a city 10000 miles away if you had a strong enough telescope? It's all flat right? Since the flat earthers don't deny mountains exist why wouldn't everyone see mountains on the horizon?
Oh now that was hilarious 😂 😃 😄
If there's no curvature, why can't you see all the way to China from L.A.? Fucking morons.
i could just be blind but I cannot see any fucking city in the background
It's not a debate, it hasn't been a debate in 3000 years.
The dinosaurs went extinct after a giant meteor crashed into the flat earth. The earth then violently tipped over, flinging all of the dinosaurs off the earth to space.
Duh.
One of the funniest "arguments" I've seen is the curvature observable -- ie the Refraction Effect on the Lake Pontchartrain Power Transmission Line images. (Sorry I had to cp that cuz I can never spell that lake's name right lol)
There are 1000s of examples of these regardos saying dumb things.
I am truly and seriously of the opinion that ANY PERSON who still thinks that the Earth is flat should either drink a knife, or go for a walk for several miles in the ocean. Some people seriously need to go apologize to God for being so fucking stupid.
Technically and practically you can't compare the values of curvature and IQ as they have different units. It's like saying the length of this sofa is higher than the light strength of that light bulb.
Nah I think that light bulbs brightness is higher than the sofas length tbh
You don't seem to get the point that you can't compare values of different physical units.
It is still a debate just like religions are still one..... Logic and common sense don't work on these people.
They really lived up to their username
That comeback was sharp! Nailed it.
If you look closely, you should be able to see the Eiffel Tower too
Because apparently there are people that never got into a plane
They would probably say that the plane companies somehow put fake moving scenery into the windows.
Its a physiological issue for them. they need to believe theres more to the earth, under there. idk.y
Ask if they believe Everest is the tallest point on earth. Then ask them to point to it. Then leave.
I didn’t mind he’s songs, I thought he had a potential… but one day a saw this post and since then I hardly heard anything from him…. It’s probably why rich and famous employ people to post on their social media so they can’t show how stupid they are.
Clevercomeback ? This belongs in confidentlyincorrect.
Horizon on a sphere is a circle and appears (almost) flat when viewed from the ground unless you are looking at the edge down from space.
Hold a hulahoop at exactly eye level - it will appear as a line.
I scrolled way too long for this point!
Username checks out
Why can't he see the bottom of the city? Even from 'high' up /s
If theres no curve where the rest of the sun hiding?
Just out in the field doing my own research 🔬 🙏
Is this Bald Rock in SC?
No, that’s Stone Mountain, from Bald Rock you can’t really see even Greenville, much less another city like Charlotte.
I live in Greenville. You can see Greenville, Greer, and other cities from there.
How is it that this topic triggers both sides so much, to the point they just call themselves the r word
Honestly if I was a Gazillionaire I'd pick the less shitty Flat earthers and just take them on a Magellan trip. Easy as that.
How does bro expect me to point out the curve when it's 90% lens flare?
I do enjoy Al Murray on the concept of flat earth.
"I mean for christ sake.....its not even level is it. Mountains are the clue aren't they?"
one reason is there is no measure of quality control on platforms like youtube where one idiot can post an idiot video and then idiots all over the world can enjoy some confirmation bias of their idiot ideas.
For the record he posted this in 2017.
cool pic tho. caught the jew space laser in action
People just can’t grasp how fucking big the planet is
Once again flat earthers have no sense of scale.
I still question the intelligence of anyone who legitimately believes in the existence of a flat earth.
Because I don’t know how you can explain the day night cycle as a flat earther without there being a magical portal between Japan/Australia and the US.
“16 miles apart”
Oh, yeh. That’s loads, eh?
Mfers think this is Animal Crossing? Like anything more than 50 ft away should be curved beyond the horizon?
A: you're at an elevation, not the same height above sea level as the street level of those cities
B: you're only seeing the top part of the city buildings, proving curvature.
They have nothing better to do. Even if they "proved" the earth was flat it really does not affect our life.
They really don’t know how big the planet is.
The curvature becomes more apparent from the horizon line of the ocean, if you take a wider angle photo of it from a little distance from the sea shore at 8 to 10 stories height.
I took one such photo and it was obvious the horizon line was curving.
Mark Twain once said
Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.
People who don't travel often develop an incorrect mental picture of the scale of the world. You hear there are 8 billion people on the planet, but your mental image of that number is closer to 8 Million. You start believing that nearly everyone on the planet thinks in ways fundamentally similar to you. You think they all had your basic childhood experiences.
And I don't think this just applies to prejudice. I think if you've never traveled more than 500 miles from your home town, your image of the actual scale of the globe shrinks. The flat earther in the picture seems to have a mental picture of an Earth the size of the Moon.
Also is it just me or does it look to be slightly curved
It’s not a debate. It’s an idiot with a digital soapbox.
"The earth is flat."
"And the others?"
"huh?"
"The other planets. We can look at them with telescopes and we know they are spinning balls. What happened to this one?"
The sky is a projection
Flat earther just have a very closed perspective of how everything is in real life. And usually they don't want to accept new nformation coming in to their brains. Useless to argue with them.
It's not a debate. It's a small group of brain-dead babies, kicking and screaming that they're right despite all evidence to the contrary. The biggest service we give them is paying attention to them at all.
When you talk to someone who doesen't admit that they were wrong...
The flat earth thing is like arguing with religious people ...you can't disprove.."faith".
Idea for a very lucrative business: making fun of the flerfs. Funny T-shirts, Funny Gifts, Funny gadgets, funny cards, funny you tube channel, etc
Grift the grifters.
Bro be seeing every city on earth at the same time
Can we GoFund Me a space flight for Kyrie Irving?
The earth IS flat. I've been to the edge and seen the ice wall. This was before Viserion blew it down tho, and the phone I took the pictures with fell over the side into outer space
This is so fucking stupid.
We all know space is fake.
Being stupid should be painful.
Doesn't the light curve a little from the beginning till where he is?
It is not possible to have a rational conversation with stupid people who believe we're flying through space on a pizza plate and gravity is a delusion. I have one of those in my family, and I gave up years ago.
The entire "flat earth" conspiracy is rooted in some people not understanding scale.
Ok,.. so these idiots claim that something Obvious, something MEASURABLE, repeatable, reproducing the same results ea & every time it’s measured is “Only a Theory?”
Why waste your time or your breath on nincompoops like this?
“LAWS” of Physics are Theories??? Uhm, Nope. If it’s A law? It’s a fact.
The collapse of the wave function is NOT a theory. It’ an OBSERVABLE, REPEATABLE FACT!
Plenty of science & physics falls into FACT.
ONLY A FLERFER IDIOTS ARGUES OTHERWISE.
I feel like most of them are just trolling. But maybe that is just me trying to avoid the realization that so many people are really that dumb.
I always like to say 'Consider the average human intelligence and then remember half the population is dumber than that.'
George Carlin, nice
Anti-vaxers and flat-earthers were the unmentioned horsemen of the apocalypse.
I always remember a video of (I think) Carl Sagan, James Randi, or Richard Dawkins at a debate with a true believer. They were both asked “What evidence could change your mind?”. The Believer said “Nothing could change my mind”, while the skeptic said he would change his mind immediately if presented with overwhelming irrefutable proof.
I think this is still a good question to ask.
I am not at my computer right now. But what another guy did with such claims was shrinking the horizon and make the curve actually visible 😂 it’s always funny when you uee their evidence against them.
I hope I remember tomorrow morning to try it with this pic.
it isn’t a debate if you don’t engage
It isn't. Just because idiots can't accept reality doesn't mean reality is in doubt.
Just a little toasted..
Why don't flat earthers just hop on a plane, fly to the edge and make a video?
Oh man I just went on this dude's instagam. Pity someone like him with so much talent and potential fell into a tub of koolaid.
Like the geniuses over at convex earth: https://youtu.be/igoizIP7f-g
Apparently spent 7 years doing their experiments. They MUST be trolling, I can't fathom people being this dumb.
i like how reddit considers IQ to be valid and real but only when it's used to attack ppl they don't like
Bro... Is this an old post? 🤦🏿♂️ When he started popping up with new music I thought he learned his lesson and he was gonna stay away from this bull shit. I'd like to listen to his music without remembering I'm listening to an absolute idiot irl
You're on a fucking hill mate.
Some people just want to be different…
Atlanta mentioned RAHH
If the earth is flat, why can’t we see New York and Boston the same way?
A little bit of context: This photo was taken about 3/4th of the way to the top of Stone Mountain, Georgia, USA. It’s a little under 1000 feet of elevation gain from the bottom to the top... not even 20% of a mile.
The city skyline on the left is Midtown Atlanta, about 25-30 miles away. The one on the right is Buckhead, which is maybe 20-25 miles away.
I think that's one of the things that flat earthers are most scared of and the reason they believe in a scientifically verifiable falsehood; that we are so little and earth is so big, even what seems like a huge distance to the human eye, it's nothing to the immensity of the universe. They're afraid of how insignificant we are in size because they equate that to how insignificant their own lives are.
This isn't a debate, please stop making it one.
They have no concept of scale.
We need to file down the circumference a little to make it a nice even 24900. Or add 99 miles somehow.
Isn't this interesting. An old matrix intel message about the diameter of OZ. The message was to me. Many moons ago. Top sneakret information. Jessy J and Price Tag, clue one, you need to be a Mensa level to understand that. And a matrix insider with some experience and history. Posted to Gossip girls old tabloid website for Hollywood where I saw it, where I was getting my intel way back then.
So I based the new designs on 350 miles in diameter. I am too lazy busy to recheck my math but if that is 2 degrees, not curvature, compass, It's more like 4 degrees into 360 = 90 x 16 miles then using the circumference find the diameter. 1440 miles in circumference, So 458 and if it is 5 degrees approx it would be about 350 miles in diameter. But consider your visibility and distance from the cities as a radius and you see that this is a message only, not an actual bit of engineering. So we went with 350 miles see kilmaru he is in one. (Did I just say that out loud?)
For those talking about the unseen curvature of the earth looking through a telescope light bends around a massive body. See Einstein et al.
