This is pretty true for the one I know. Any logical facts are rebutted by “the government is lying to you”. It’s the ultimate fallback. He knows he is full of **** and has zero to back it up, so that’s the fallback. It’s just a way to say everyone is out to get them and I must fight the system.

That's what I took from the video. Their entire argument is based on proving the negative. It's not: we have evidence the earth is flat. It's: prove to me it's not round.

"Dude, there's no way the earth is flat. Look at the photos from space."

"Oh yeah, have you personally been to space? Have you personally performed scientific experiments to prove the curvature of the Earth? Oh, you haven't. I TOLD YOU I WAS RIGHT!"

I think most of these people are just very dedicated trolls. I mean, this whole thing has to be some form of performance art right?

Or maybe the guy who started this whole movement is like the next coming of L. Ron Hubbard. He probably made a bet with a friend that he could get a bunch of knuckleheads to really believe the earth is flat. Soon it will be a cult if it isn't already.

It reminds me of the episode of Parks and Recreation with the "reasonablists." If you haven't seen it, it's a spoof on Scientology. The world is going to end according to a cult. Ron Swanson shows up every year and sells them flutes and makes a killing.

What happens to the water in the oceans??? Is there some sort of lip at the edge or does it just flow off into space like it does in Asgard?
Antarctica holds in all in. The map explains it all
