    Its the loudness wars, no dynamic range to it anymore.

    Flat, of course not. As any educated person knows, it is a curved shell of the Great A'tuin being carried across space by four elephants.

    The Earth is actually a cube, believe it or not

    No but it's amazing how gravity effects ones perception of upright.

    If a person was standing at the south pole and they could be viewed from space would they appear upside down?

    First they came for the socialists...

    If you’re part of an uncontacted tribe say in the Pacific, being a flat-earther is a belief. In Western society, I would call it a psych diagnosis.

    dimensions are up, down, right, left, and time. and now there may be 10 more dimensions, at least.
    and so, Jesus may actually have walked on water.

    You probably think you're really clever saying that, but Bill Gates, 5G, Vaccines, etc. Whereas, Jim Corr, David Icke and the rest, one of them even smiled at the camera when he was on TV, which of course, is controlled by Jeff Bezos and George Soros. C.O.V.I.D.-19
    Conspiracy
    Of
    Vicious
    International
    Demagogues

    ...haven't quite worked out what the '19' represents, but I'll have a bash after I have me tea.

    Dimensions, not directions.

    Does anyone really believe they are standing on a ball of rock hurtling through space?

    Intellectually yes but deep down...

    I was out with the spirit level yesterday, the earth is flat at the front of my house, but there's a good slope at the back

    God convinced Abraham to kill his son, after watching him wrestle with his conscience for a while and decide to do it said ah ha Im only messing.

    God genocided the whole earth except Moses and his family.

    He sent his son to earth and had him murdered by Jews.

    Then when one angel had the balls to stand up to him we were told that this angel was the bad guy.

    We all believed it. We accused this new angels followers of being murderers and rapists while gods followers were murdering and raping.

    Flat earthers dont believe everything they are told. They may not even believe the earth is flat. They just think you should question everything.

    If you cant understand that you will probably happily work as a teacher or hospital porter or some job where you can be told how to do the same thing year on year in the same building for the rest of your days. Happily eating the same sandwhiches for the rest of your lunches. All the while Joe Bidens son sells secrets to chinese spy chiefs and talks openly about it on tape and they tell you Trumps a baddy.

    And you swallow it all up.


    No questions asked.

    People believe in religion, so why not.

    I happen to believe the earth is indeed flat. As flat as spherical, round, circular, three-dimensional, rotund... globe-shaped, spherical pancake.

    How long have you been on the internet? of course there are flat earther loons out there. Mostly Americans it seems...unsurprisingly.

    For the sake of my own sanity, I refuse to believe that anyone really thinks that the earth is flat.

    Of course it's flat. Sure when I was down in Oz I had to do a handstand just so I could take a dump.

    Some people never grow out of their edgy teenage opinioned phase either.

    I wish I could be rich enough to pay a space trip for a bunch of flat earth believers just to see their faces.

    You don't need to go to space to prove that. All they need is a trip to the nearest beach. Ask them to explain why the sky meets the ocean when they look out.
