>WHEN WE LAUNCHED THE APHRODITE BALLOON IN EARLY 2017, IT CAME TO MY ATTENTION THERE WAS NO ACTUAL PHYSICAL CURVATURE REGISTERED BY OUR HIGH-ALTITUDE BALOON.
THE EARTH WAS CLEARLY FLAT.
ANY TIME I BROUGHT THIS UP, MY TEAM MATES BECAME VEXED WITH ME, BUT HEY, THAT’S NATURAL.

thats what someone is saying
T.literally retarded i dont get it

Never thought of them as sociopaths, just semi-functional retards.

But yes, no point engaging with them. At the very most just mock them. For example agree with them and then add that the Sun is a cylinder. From their point of view its impossible to disagree with this.

Flat Earthers are trolls who went too far and began to believe their shit. Every damn video about space on YouTube is full of them.

>> No.12439575

You cannot see curvature even at cruise altitude in airliner. You have to go higher.
When Musk does commercial space flights, these people can pool the money and buy a ticket.
Although I can predict the argument will be "it's not real windows it's screens".

Yep. When I suggested that flat earthers should just buy a big ship and just sail to the end of the earth streaming it through the sat internet, I've heard they won't do it because ((they)) control the Internet and edge of the world is protected by ((their)) military ships that would kill them.

No they aren't. At all. They're all devout Liberals. If you look at these people, they all happily state that round-earth theories are invented to stifle global freemarket capitalism. A conservative would conserve the traditional Western position held for the past 2.5k years (round earth).

The flat earther movement is a curious example of internet culture to study. I remember first seeing the flat earth website around 2006 where it was populated by reasonably smart users who were all in on the joke. Somewhere between then and now it must've attracted enough idiots who unironically believe the stuff. What's also weird is how it blew up in size around ~2015. Anyone know why?

Flat Earth is a CIA psyop designed to make actual conspiracy theorists look retarded. I mean, if a sperg kid who's only socially awkward but makes up for it in brains sits next to a retarded autist with a massive overbite that masturbates in public and drools everywhere, outsiders assume the spergish kid is also hopelessly retarded.
The CIA wants the same effect here, how will you take the idea of the holocaust being exaggerated or the idea of 9/11 being an Israeli attack if retarded shit like faking the moon landing and flat earth pops up in your mind?

I failed to type in "seriously". I mean, how would you take legitimate conspiracies seriously if you associate them with flat earth retardation? The CIA wants you to see conspiracies this way, I think there was an operation about this in the 1960's.

I understood what you wrote. My point is that you've fallen for the glowies trick and associate fake moon landing theories with flat earth. We did not send people to the moon, only unmanned probes.

How flat is the flat earth? What depth are we talking here and is it an oval, circle or rectangle
