I saw a meme stating if the world was flat cats would have already knocked everything off the edge. That's irrefutable logic right there.
I completely agree. The fluffy little demons knock everything off anything. One of mine likes to dip her paw in glasses of ice water and tap the ice on the edge inevitability knocking over the water, I lost my very new MacBook Air thanks to her efforts. A whole pint of ice water over the keyboard, RIP. My cat was just pissed she got wet...

The Netflix documentary Around the Curve has my favorite example of flat earthers
They came up with a surprisingly scientific experiment involving a gyroscope to measure the actual curvature of the earth. They laid out the explanation for what evidence would prove that the earth is round, and what would prove the earth is flat
It proved the earth is round
Their conclusion: magical sky beams interfered with their measurements
Better yet: they then went to the trouble of buying a zero Gauss chamber to block out these "heavenly energies"
It still proved the Earth is round
"Thanks Bob." 😆
🤦🏾♀️
All a person needs is to fly into Chicago at night to see the curvature.. trust me
"Why do people believe in flat Earth?"
Because they're stupid. That's all there is to it. They're stupid. And I mean that legitimately. They are too stupid to understand basic things

@@taurohkea2169 lol i get you think he ment what was visible but render distance or draw distance is "In computer graphics, draw distance is the maximum distance of objects in a three-dimensional scene that are drawn by the rendering engine. Polygons that lie beyond the draw distance will not be drawn to the screen." google says. so its referring to a aspect of games.
he might be saying we live in a simulation.
"Only believe in things you can see for yourself. Also, there's an ice wall around the disc that no-one has ever seen for themselves, but trust me bro."
I read a fascinating comment by a psychologist who has a policy of refusing to treat any patient that claims the earth is flat: he has found that they usually have underlying mental health issues and symptoms that need psychiatric care and perhaps medication. He therefore refers those prospective patients to a higher level medical professional. While this is not a causation situation, there is correlation between the firmly held belief in a flat earth belief and symptoms of larger problems.
Huh. Imagine that.
That's interesting. Probably a good point.

The refutation of all the evidence which contradicts their theory reminds me of what it was like to try to convince my mother that the voices only she could hear were a result of psychosis…
How the duck do you know? The spiritual world is real, and that’s why almost no one in western society can make sense out of ANYTHING. They’re missing a fundamental aspect of human existence and the universal overall.
Yeah, but you were (hopefully) actually able to convince her. You can’t convince a flat earther of shit.
My mom had Alzheimer’s and delusions at the end. I feel your pain.
I remember watching a documentary not that long ago that followed a group of flat earthers who set out to confirm that the Earth was flat, and basically, after every experiment that proved them wrong they simply changed the narrative to suit the results. In a nutshell, they were wrong and could not prove the Earth was flat.
Hence the beginning of the term "thanks Bob".
That’s basically religion in general. Only accept any evidence that supports your belief, throw out all evidence that disproves it.
@@Hkizzieno one asked I declare jihad on you
@@Hkizzie Flat earth has nothing to do with religion, that's a modern idea. Besides, you can definitively, scientifically prove the shape of the earth, and it was first done thousands of years ago. You can't show any evidence that directly disproves the existence of any deity. You can explain the mechanism behind certain phenomena attributed to deities, but you can't prove or disprove if a deity was responsible for it happening. In fact, scientists for thousands of years viewed science not as a way of replacing or disproving God, but of understanding how He operates, and when you understand how He does what He does, you can better understand why He does it

@@shaunsteele8244 Depends on who you ask.
It gets worse when you realize that stupid people reproduce the most.
@@AngryReptileKeeper That’s the result of people consuming relentless mythology and misinformation related to fertility, conception, and pregnancy. It used to be just dumb stuff teenagers heard from an older sibling and passed around in a relatively small group, but it is significantly more proliferative these days. No, laying still after sex does not prevent pregnancy. No, jumping up and down after sex does not prevent pregnancy. No, you cannot get pregnant from a toilet seat or hot tub. Yes, you can get pregnant if sperm contacts your vulva even if it wasn’t initially released inside the vagina. No, birth control does not cause abortions (guys really like to believe that the magic happens the second they release, but there’s at least a week before a blastocyst implants in the uterine wall, at which point pregnancy occurs). Trying to explain to someone the whole timeline of the process is an effort in futility. But really, if you’ve decided to hate a thing, shouldn’t you at least know how it works?
Okay I got off on a tangent, but my initial point was relevant as to the specific area of ignorance which causes more widespread reproduction.
One of my favourite Flat-Earther statements is that they have thousands of members around the globe.
And the immediate response to that statement. "Say that again but slower."
ROTFLMAO
...and they use mobile phone technology to talk to each other...

hahahaha!
Years ago, I spent a year at South Pole Station. Up there on the polar plateau, I would have noticed an ice wall if it had been there, don't you think?
Yeah no they think the ice shelf itself is the ice wall. Apparently they have no idea that Antarctica has beaches
They would say you had your memory erased by NASA.
The point is Antartica is the land mass surrounding the oceans, its height varies but land is the edge of water.
If the curvature of the earth as viewed from an airliner is due to the shape of the windows, why doesn't the terminal building look curved when you're on the runway.

Trust what you see with your own eyes in your everyday life, not locations that the military will not let you reach even if you wanted to reach it.
Actually, much of what they assert are things that they can't possibly have seen with their own eyes.
@@otisdylan9532 Otis, you've seen the flat earth with your own eyes, but because of indoctrination over your lifetime, it's easy to miss. CGI images of space that are obviously fake, high-altitude weather balloon video where the horizon rises to you eye level, zero proof of gravity turning us around. Believe me, you've already experienced it.
Here are five undeniable scientific facts that make flat earth theory an impossible model.
1. Size of the sun observed in the sky: When observed the sun takes up the same “degrees of space” in the observable sky. This is only possible for a very large object being very far away. In all flat earth theories the sun is a small object moving relatively close to earth shining a spotlight of “day time” upon the surface of the earth. The relatively observed ”degrees of space” taken up by the sun should start as very small at sun rise, be observed to be 3x-5x times larger in the sky at Noon (based on theorized size of the sun and distance from the earth’s surface proposed in the various versions of flat earth models). The sun would then get smaller and smaller in the sky as it approaches sunset.
2. The pattern of the tides. The double low and high tide patterns as seen on earth are only possible if the moon is rotating around a spherical earth. No math models in any flat earth theory can explain the observed tide cycle.
3. Sky Rotation changing. From time lapse studies, we know from the observable sky at night what appears to be a sky rotating counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere. This is only possible on a rotating globe. In fact in flat earth models, the sun and northern star (Polaris) should ALWAYS be visible at night.
4. Shadow angles at Noon. Put two tall sticks in the ground 100 yards apart. Watch what happens at Noon. In a flat earth model there should be a time when the shadows cast by the sticks are pointing in opposite directions as the small relatively close sun passes over head. This doesn’t occur the shadows are cast at always the same angle of projection. This is only possible with a globe rotating to reveal a very large very far away sun.
5. Sundials move “clockwise” north of the equator. Sundials move “counter clockwise” south of the equator. This cannot happen on a flat earth with a small sun flying through the sky.
This assumes you're qrguing with a rational person playing by the same rules as us (logic, science, reality...)

6:04 You could run a survey in which the only question is "Are you currently taking a survey?" and 5% of people will still answer "Not sure"
Reminds me of the time where those telephone polls were a thing. You had to grab the phone, dial the number and pay a considerable amount of money and yet still there were people who did just that just to vote for "I don't care".
@@tobiaswilhelmi4819 when apathy comes at a cost
"Taking a survey" is something that only happens in our mind. In reality, we are just pressing lead onto a piece of paper, so perhaps it would not be unwarranted
The idea that all world governments would come together for once on any one idea (let alone to keep it secret from the entire world) is quite preposterous.
Almost a decade ago, I discovered online that there were people who believed the Earth was flat. I began arguing with them. I tried to understand what made them believe what they believe and thought of ways to debunk their beliefs in indisputable ways. Here are some examples:
-Flat earthers said that Antarctica surrounded the Earth, was comprised of 75-150 foot tall ice walls that could not be traversed, and if you somehow did manage to traverse the wall machine-gun-carrying NASA guards would turn you away. I really thought to even think this was truly hilarious. Do these people even realize that you can just book a trip to Antarctica and go there yourself to see that none of this is true? I mean... let's go! Let's go in person and see that none of this is true in reality. See for yourself that there are no continuous tall ice walls and no NASA guards. I'm guessing that flat earthers don't have much money because none took me up on the offer
-They were so convinced that the whole global concept was a means of controlling the populous. They somehow merged the globalist "New World Order", which is really about people capitalizing on a unified world government, whereby the word global doesn't refer to the shape of the planet, but the encapsulation of all governments of the world. They don't seem to understand this distinction. Further, they then use MK-Ultra and merge that into their unhinged beliefs for some reason. Then, they claim this is all because of the Rothschilds and Rockerfellers, etc. Then, I asked them a couple of questions:
1) How is it that these people or governments are going to somehow control me more or less just because of the shape of the planet? I mean, if the Earth is round or flat, from a government perspective... my life doesn't change in either case. From a controlling me perspective, nothing changes. My life from a governing perspective isn't affected by the shape of the planet. They of course had no answer for this and merely resorted to ad hominem attacks about how clueless I was and how they felt sorry for me.... even though they are the ones who couldn't answer the simplest of questions
2) Why? Why would anybody require the Earth being round in my mind, or the populous in general? What is the end game? What's it all about? The answer? Seriously... the answer was: so the government could get your money. THAT'S IT! That is all they had! So, I informed them that the government ALREADY has our money they collect in the form of taxes and that they already give many billions a year to NASA, out of a $4 trillion sum in federal revenue a year, and they don't need my understanding or permission to give NASA money because they already have my money and can spend it however Congress decides to do so in their budget. Me believing the world is some shape has literally no effect on anything with regard to them taking my money and giving it to NASA. Again, they had no response to this. So, they cannot even come up with a plausible reason that they can effectively explain in any legitimate fashion that even begins to provide a motive for their make-believe claims.
Add-on: No lie, this one Australian guy was really smug about his flat earth positions and attempted to execute a live experiment on the spot on video that "proved" for sure just how the Earth simply cannot be a globe. The experiment? He had a deflated soccer ball and he used his garden hose to spray water on it to show that the water fell off and didn't stick to the ball! HAHAHAHAHA! Seriously! That was it!!! He is completely scientifically brainless! He didn't even consider for a second that the gravity of the Earth, due to its much larger mass than the ball, would overpower any sort of gravitational effects a tiny little ball could even hope to produce. This guy is all flat earthers. Just stupid and wrong.
Now we are seeing the "extraterrestrials" and UFO narrative unfold. This would not be possible if people believed in the firmament of God. Our entire world is God's creation.
The Bible says this, "The coming of the lawless one will be accompanied by the working of Satan, with every kind of power, sign, and false wonder, and with every wicked deception directed against those who are perishing, because they refused the love of the truth that would have saved them. For this reason God will send them a powerful delusion so that they believe the lie, in order that judgment may come upon all who have disbelieved the truth and delighted in wickedness." 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12
Don't believe it if you want but this world is passing away.
The funny thing is if we took a champion of champion among the flat earthers to space and they confirmed the earth is round they would then be written off as bought by NASA.
nah they would say the windows are special effects.
the flat earthers provide the rest of us plenty of amusement..

And she wondered why and I told her because the world is round and we are more west. She told us she didn't know the world was round. Also in Vietnam in the 1960's the people were shown maps from Americans and laughed and said you can't make maps and they believed the world was flat. Most people now have more education. But is was not that long ago that a large number of people just thought the world was flat because the topic never came up and so no one even got to the stage to question it. The people were more worried about farming and getting food.

Hahaha I saw that!
Even worse is that they're now trying to find ways to force the gyroscope to show a flat earth and they don't realize how biasedly faulty that logic is. It's like me trying to prove gravity doesn't exist and after dropping rocks over and over i then let go of a helium balloon and act like i proved my point.

Then you get corporations that see a one world government as their ticket to saving money on lobbing multiple governments to pass laws to benefit their greed by suppressing competition and making it easier to achieve their monopolies and the death of the free market....)
Minnion very true can’t ignore those as well. Every group has a special interest, you can even throw lobbyist into that equation. Wouldn’t call it much of a conspiracy thou if they are doing this out in the open. Human nature almost guarantees there will never be a “one government”.

Hey, u can believe this sh!TD!ck if ya want 2, so let's use all these complex formulas that a sumb!Tch from the bronze age came up wit. Then ask me how I could believe in the bible bc it was written soooooo long ago. Everything we think we know about the sun moon stars space comes from 1 organization, NASACAR, if I catch sum1 in lie(S) as in piles of em. I must reconsider all they said. NASA means 2 beguile in Hebrew, & means 2 greatly decieve in Greek. They have now added a hyphen 2 change the meaning & the word the word 4 lifted up is pronounced nawsha that ain't it. Just Google clouds behind the sun & clique on video & images
I am not generous enough to want to waste money on such people by sending them into space (even if permanently). They are not the hungry or sick waiting for relief. They are the wilfully ignorant, agents of their own misfortune.

I know! Listening to the flat earthers "logic" was seriously starting to hurt my head.
Deep inside they know the earth is round. But there’s money running a community like this.
This video really didn’t touch on “why” people believe this. I’d like to forward my theory. Having engaged with many flat-earthers I have found some commonalities in all of those with whom I have spoken. All of them share a misunderstanding of core concepts of science. I don’t believe that is the key as many people share that and have the capacity to realize that principles that have been proven are true whether you personally master them or not. The other aspect that they all seem to share is that they are people with a self-image that is honestly above them while living a life that they see as beneath them. My theory is that as long as one clings to an idea that they are a member of a select few that “can see the truth” and are “too smart and open-minded to be brainwashed” it gives them an escape from the idea that perhaps they are not living up to their full potential. That perhaps their life is much smaller than it could be.
That's pretty common to almost all conspiracy theorists.
Ugh. It's like you're describing my mother. And I get the brunt of it since me becoming wealthy and sharing it with her seems to be her only hope of improving her life.
I have a theory which some will find controversial: They're morons.
It's basically a version of the Dunning Kruger effect.
You just described most humans....
So, every world sailor and every transcontinental airline pilot all keep the Flat Earth a secret.
Nobody cracks and spills the beans? That is an amazingly solid conspiracy!
Do not forget every person who climbed a tall mountain.
If the Earth was flat with north geological pole being in the center, visible terrain would not line up with maps (curving northward more than it should according to spherical maps), and they would see the Sun at night (it would have to be higher than all mountains, thus be visible from them).
I am in the conspiracy. I sailed all 7 seas. And there is a big ice wall. Don't tell anybody I told you.
Exactly what I thought. NOWHERE people are so consistent in their lies. (I hope, what I typed made sense. I am german- and you can't always translate figures of speech)

If the earth was flat, cats would have pushed everything over the edge.
I have entertained many flat Earth theorists. I’ve considered the possibility of them being correct and was absolutely fascinated with how little knowledge was actually applied. It’s very creative and highly imaginative. I just continued to prove to myself that the Earth is indeed spherical. The math works forward and backwards. It’s easy to consider when we know the actual science can only conclude to a spherical planet. It amazes me they don’t seem to want to grasp Eratosthenes evidence. For them to be correct would require a conspiracy of unimaginable proportions, as well as a mechanical sun along with a mobile sky. Sextons usage and celestial navigation are obviously lost with these people. What about the fact our shadow is round when broadcast onto the moon, if our planet is sideways wouldn’t we fall off? Why is there no video evidence of the edge of the world? Why can’t we see Hawaii from California with a high powered telescope? So many things don’t line up for their theory to be correct. Occam’s razor says the Earth is spherical after all is said and done.
The Flat Earth Society has members all around the globe.

So the University of New Hampshire did a study which included flat earth beliefs as well conspiracy theory/science questions. Their sample was smaller, but they came up with a frighteningly higher percentage of flat earthers at 10% of survey subjects.

Their conclusions suggest young people are the most likely to believe the earth is flat, and are more likey to believe really stupid conspiracy theories.

When I read the Flat Earther site in 2005 or so, I got the impression that a lot of the discussions and hypotheses being presented were by very smart people doing it as a lark, or just as a thought experiment, that they clearly weren't taking it seriously, and definitely weren't getting mad over anything. Like "Hey, if the Earth was flat, how would we scientifically explain it?"
I could be wrong, and there were definitely some true believers there, but that's the feeling I got.
What really gave the movement juice was the TH-cam and other social-media algorithms rewarding anything that brought "engagement" (for reasons of advertising revenue). That all happened later than 2005. I think that most of the prolific Flat Earth video-makers at this point are liars who are doing it for eyeballs and clicks. The way they never stop repeating trivially incorrect arguments that can be easily deflated with thirty seconds of Googling suggests that. Many of their *followers*, however, may be true believers.
I saw a video once in which one of these guys was giving a public lecture, and it started with him explaining correctly and in some detail that according to conventional heliocentric astronomy, we should see different stars at night in the winter and the summer. Then he just flatly asserted that we don't--you see exactly the same stars at night all year round! Of course, that's not true. There are, in fact, different summer and winter constellations (apart from the few that, if you live in the middle latitudes, are close enough to your hemisphere's celestial pole that, for you, they never set). And his claim is such a blatantly false statement, coming from someone who clearly understands astronomy well enough to have given the preceding explanation, that I don't believe it's any honest ignorance; that guy is just lying and assuming his fans won't check for themselves.
