I would like to know the following about the flat earth idea. The biggest question is, if the earth is flat, what are the scientists at NASA doing? How do the powers that convince the world about the globe deceive these people that they literally believe they are sending robots to Mars?

1. The earth is most likely not flat.
2. If the earth is flat, elements of NASA are hiding it. You don't need everyone at NASA to be in on it, only enough people to keep the illusion alive. If you fake the results you could spend some of the money given for space research on faking space research, and use the rest for what you want.

Its not true but its harmless, unlike the covid vaccine

well, its not flat and so none of that other stuff is necessary. you only have to look at the flat earther claims for 5 minutes to see how silly it all is. its all based on ignorance and misunderstandings.

>>508698108 (OP)
a bunch of assumptions keep piling up over the previous assumptions and after some time you have a big ass model built completely on assumptions and lies with no relation to reality

>>508699818
and retarded little fools like this leaf nigger will focus on some later assumptions and argue about them and defend them to death, completely missing the entire thing is built on retarded foundations

>>508700100
thats right anon. flat earthers really dont have anything more than that.

>>508700310
lol. you have no exclusive evidence of that

Jeet thread.

>>508699818
Some of them make compelling arguments. You can shoot a laser over a body of water and hit a target that is supposed to be below the horizon on a globe of the size they claim earth is.

in reality, no one has ever measured and empirically shown there is any curvature or spin, end of debate

that's why it's pointless wasting time explaining anything to a ballie, they're like women or children, they have no idea what empirical science even is or what constitutes as sufficient evidence for anything

>>508700674
but whats the faulty assumption with that argument?

>>508700789
>in reality, no one has ever measured and empirically shown there is any curvature or spin, end of debate
They have, many times, but you just say 'nuh uh' to it all. What you really mean is that you have done it, since thats all you'll accept...but you never will do it either, so you'll keep saying its all fake for the rest of your life....because thats what you want to believe.

>>508700789
>you have done it,
*haven't done it

No flat earther has ever been able to explain to me who benefits from humanity thinking a flat earth is a sphere.

>>508700967
i'm sorry you're retarded, but there's nothing i can do for you

>>508700845
You have alternative explanations. The normalfag side say that the light will "stick" to the water, I think because of vapor bending it or something. The large globe earth side says this shows the earth is larger than claimed.

And they all have satellite tv too lmao

Anyone with a telescope could watch the sky un the southern hemisphere, then book a flight and do the same up in the north. The will, Indeed, stop believing the Earth is flat.

see, they're all like this, a bunch of public school drones incapable of recognizing an agument even if it hit them in the face

>what are the scientists at NASA doing?
>The Prophet (sa) told us how arrogant they will become at their success, “They shoot their arrows into the heavens so they returned dyed with blood, and they say – crudely and arrogantly – ‘We vanquished those in the earth, let us dominate the inhabitants of the heavens.’” (Tirmidhi 3153)
shooting at the inhabitants of the heavens ofc.

>>508701397
im sorry for you that you have nothing of value to say.

>>508701893
>i will just keep insulting people because im right and smart and stuff
lol

Who benefits from humanity thinking a flat earth is a sphere?

>>508701549
and they dont like how the location of the satellites only works on a globe earth

flat earth threads used to be a lot of fun when people were still catching up, but everyone worth talking to is already a flat earther at this point, so it's just tiresome now, you can only handle stupidity up to a point, you know

It isn't hard to come up with possibilities.
Secret continents, kept from (you) and exploited by them, is one possibility.
Antisemites trying to hide that the Talmud was right is another.
Rome has had globe earth as part of its theology for around two millennia. Would they not wish to hide they were wrong?
Those wishing to spread nihilism may wish you to believe you are an insignificant being on an insignificant speck of dust orbiting an insignificant star in an insignificant galaxy.
Those opposing the spread of nihilism may wish you to believe future humanity can migrate to other - probably artificial - worlds, orbiting other stars.

Depending on how high up the atmosphere goes in their particular flat earth cosmology, you could hang a "satellite" under a balloon.

>>508703139
i see you're handling it by not even attempting to discuss flat earth at all.

>>508703285
highest balloon goes up to about 60km and isn't traveling fast enough to behave like satellites behave. they also dont stay up al that long and are generally not very able to be steered or have their path predicted very well.

The earth is not flat, and you can prove it yourself easily in 10 easy steps:

>Find a lake that is larger than 5 miles
>Get a boat
>Get a strong laser with a tripad that is stable
>Get a target (dartboard or whatever)
>Drive the boat out about 1 yard
>Point the laser at the target to calibrate it to the midpoint of the target
>Move 3 miles away from the target
>Try to adjust the laser only horizonally to hit the target again at the same point
>Notice how the laser is now not even close to hitting the target
>Stop being a dumbfuck
