Kinja'd!!!

After being confronted with incontrovertible empirical evidence, he couldn’t continue maintaining that the Earth is fla-AHAHAHAHAHA naw, JK. He’s a brick wall. Thing is, anyone with a few hundred bucks now can take a pic from the stratosphere and see for themselves , but he declined for obvious reasons.

I know a guy like that too... Man that’s fucked up... I’d like to point out that the overwhelming majority of those people are Americans though. My dear American friends, please, do something about this crap :)

I wish Elon Musk would send a bunch of those guys to space... He could do it, just for the sake of it. I’d love him to select a bunch of flat-earthers and send them up there once and for all.

This is why the 1st Amendment is badly structured - nearly unlimited free speech, and very limited controls on hate speech and deliberate lies, has resulted in the current American political situation.

They wouldn’t go. A person will not voluntarily shatter his or her own worldviews. Some who will deny evidence of the Earth being round is also someone who will deny opportunities for more round earth evidence to be found.

Nah, the flat Earth thing doesn’t have anything to do with the 1st amendment. Anywhere else in the world people will laugh at those people and that will be it... Let them believe their shit and talk/argue about it as much as they want... It’s too dumb to be a problem. Unless you live in a nation where education is seriously lacking and where religious fanatism is actually a problem (and no, I’m not taking about Muslim fanatism here)

I’m not sure... Some will, but not all. I actually believe many are just 100% genuinely certain about themselves and would actually fly to space to see a flat Earth lol

Cheetolini and all his kleptocratic cronies can go take a trip to the Sun.

I hear they have a great summer resort there.

Lol flat earth people still exist? There are much more important conspiracies that are actually real we should be worrying about.

Most facebook whackadoodles will be from Murka, as facebook market saturation is probably highest in the US, and these types love to have their opinions heard (also see vegans, crossfitters, etc).

I can kind of (just kind of) get why people way back in ancient times would have thought that the earth is flat, but I just can’t conceive how someone now, with all of the movies, and astronauts, and space tourism, can possibly believe it. It blows my mind.

Edit: Try to get your friend to explain why ships disappear over the horizon as they sail out to sea.

Tried all that and more, he says we’re ‘uninformed’ for not recognizing the truth.
