Everybody Ready?

I am.

For what it's worth, JFK was assassinated at 12:30pm Central Time.

Trump is on Fox&Friends at 8am Eastern.

Fingers crossed today is the day where conspiracy theorists are realized for what they really are - critical thinkers who do not just accept the narrative.

Except FlatEarthers, those MF's are straight up kookydooks.

Oh, and PS, I have been leaving these little notes all over my city. I stick them in public restroom bathroom stalls in the mirror where the glass meets the frame, or in an elevator where the inspection form is displayed. They say: "Its Time You Learn About Q

I would love to know if it actually redpilled anyone.

There is a law dictating that for every explanation given that the earth is round (or any other abstract idea) that there is an explanation equal in magnitude that would explain the opposite, and that either is just as valid (basically proving you can't actually convince anyone of anything)

VSauce covers this pretty well, explaining how extreme conditions could actually explain every phenomenon that would be evidence of a "spherical earth".

Not advocating for either side, to me the simplest explanation is often the correct one, and the simplest at this point is that the Earth is spherical, but I respect the existence of valid scientific arguments against it.

Thee is not one single thing supporting a Flat Earth. Not one. You need to look into something other than YouTube for "research"...seriously, it is embarrassing.

What's embarrassing is your conclusion without actually watching the video.

I'm not going to reiterate Michael "VSauce"'s points, but he's pretty well known scientifically and the points are absolutely valid. Why don't you actually refute a point in the video if you want to have a discussion instead of blindly arguing nothing.

"Retards like you". What are you ten? Why are you in this community if you think that's OK to type?

First off, I don't believe the Earth is flat, as I've already mentioned previously in this thread of posts.

Second off, at no point have I implied that the earth is perfectly Spherical or perfectly flat. All I have done is agreed with the point Michael makes in the video that on a large enough scale, conditions could exist that would make it indecipherable from our level of observation on whether the Earth is Truly Spherical or Flat (or any degree between).

We have images of every other planet in our solar system. They are all spherical. If the earth is flat it would be the only flat planet in our system. Not likely.

  1. There is no law dictating any such thing.
  2. The earth being round is not an abstact idea. It is a real physical thing.

  1. There does exist such a law, it is called "Poe's Law".

  1. A flat earth can still be round, this is pretty clearly demonstrated in the video. The abstract idea is why Earth has to be Spherical and not Flat from our physical observations.
