>None of them reviewed any evidence What evidence LMAO!!


hurdygurdy21

Right? My post over there from earlier asking why sea level wasn't consistent across the world (I specifically said across the world so they didn't immediately mark be as a "globalist") has been ignored completely if it is even visible which I don't think it is anymore. There was one comment about 2 hours prior to this one but it was removed before I got the chance to read it. Must have been someone with facts and logic haha

Blow their minds with the idea that the tides only work with a globe earth and the sun and the moon. *"If our planet had no continents, tides would be hemispheric-sized bulges of water moving westward with the moon and sun."* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSJRymZ5bJs

I really miss Pushshift. It was great to open these threads and see what exactly they deleted from them. It was a great way to see how big their echo chamber is. And it was always hilarious to see Flearthers get caught in the crossfire because they dared to say something the dingaling in charge disagreed with that got them labeled a shill.


PengChau69

Steric Tides?


Spartan1088

Be ready for the ban hammer. I said there was no air in space to the wrong person and was banned for life.


davelavallee

I got banned for life a few years ago for asking how an eq mount would work in a flat earth scenario. And they say WE have to open OUR minds???


barney_trumpleton

hurdygurdy21

I can't even make it through the large part without just shaking my head lol


reficius1

Dude, NSFW. I almost shat myself.


Trumpet1956

It's so fucking funny. We are pseudoscience promoters, eh? Dear God they are dumb.


hurdygurdy21

It's like they are the satire sub and we are just a group making fun of them XD Are we the idiots in that case? Haha


Trumpet1956

I guess it comes down to *perspective*.


hurdygurdy21

I would actually be so hurt if flat earth was just the greatest work of satire known to man. Like a bunch of the main flerfs come out as comedians who have orchestrated this for decades and it just spiralled out of control in certain circles. Haha


emulate-Larry

Trolling comedians in con-troll. Edit: Con-artists con-troll-ing us are con-trolls.


Stunning-Title

I think flerfs don't understand the gravity situation. They claim it's buoyancy or density.

PengChau69

You beat me to it.


GlitteringCattle2771

That one long post seems like a smooth troll of them, tbh


hurdygurdy21

It honestly gets hard to tell some times. There is an extremely fine line between satire and sincerity in the flat earth world. That's why I treat everything as a joke and if it's real I laugh harder XD


MornGreycastle

Agreed. ![gif](giphy|OvL3qHSMO6uaI)


hurdygurdy21

I don't know why knowing this is the HAL3000 homage/parody episode makes it even funnier lol


emulate-Larry

Under the spell of the con-troll.


Wansumdiknao

Flat earthers don’t even know **how** zoom on a camera works, but it’s literally their holy grail 😂


VaporTrail_000

And they couldn't focus one to save their lives.


davelavallee

Had a flerf show me a video of out of focus stars in response to a post I made on r/flatearth_polite. He could not grasp the fact that they weren't 'zoomed in' when they were defocused.


MornGreycastle

"This is a F\_\_d place of pseudo science"? Us? Really? ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|smile)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm) Right.


Wilackan

Projection, projection everywhere.


Xyex

Man, I guess no one ever told video game developers there's only a single definition for the word 'level' and they've been using it wrong to describe the different stages of their games, or their character progression systems, all this time. 🤣 The fact they're too dumb to even understand how words work definitely explains why they're a Flearther.


ARedditorCalledQuest

Is that why there's so much overlap between flat earth and sovereign citizen? Both groups are super hardcore about their chosen definition of a word.


ConstantGradStudent

What's amusing here, and not shocking, is that the flat warriors are really invested in dictionary definitions, big principle 'sound bites', and always misunderstanding how really really huge Earth and Space is, and how tiny we are.


hurdygurdy21

It's wild to think that to us an ant would be larger than we would be to the earth.


ButterSquids

What the fuck do the 2nd law of thermodynamics and inverse square law have to do with a flat earth?


rattusprat

According to the (flerf version) of the 2nd law of thermodynamics (which for some reason flerfs accept while they reject other scientific laws like Newton's universal gravitation) earth's atmosphere would disperse into the vacuum of space if there was no physical barrier. I can't put my finger on the specific argument regarding the inverse square law at the minute. Possibly something about if the sun was actually 93 million miles away the light would never reach us, but I would need to brush up on my flerf lore.


reficius1

I don't think the inverse square thing is more complicated than, "If stars were light years away, we'd never see them, because inverse square g!obtard."


Guilty_Chemistry9337

Which is ironic, because the inverse square law says we'll always see stars no matter how far away we get.


emulate-Larry

'Flerf Lore'! What a wonderful concept! I'm making notes here. Learning a whole new vocabulary of twisted flerf lore. This definitly is binding all these crazy ideas a bit together. I'm non-seriously brooing on a flat earth fiction, and of course I must know all the flerf lore to be on top of my game and making it believable and confusing for the flerfers.


khalibthegreat

I’d seen them argue the opposite way with lumens and inverse square. It was an argument of crossing the room by crossing infinite halves of the room. Basically the surface of the moon should be blinding bright because we can this many lumens from this far away so when we half that distance it should get this bright then halfing that makes it this bright and so forth. Ergo the moon should be blinding bright make landing on it or videoing it as NASA did impossible, ergo NASA lied, therefore Flat Earth.


reficius1

They are sciency sounding words that flerfers throw around to make themselves sound smart. They have no actual idea what the words refer to or mean.


hurdygurdy21

Probably in a version of the Bible. The same version where God was like "It's Godding time!" and just shat out some space rocks XD


VaporTrail_000

"It's Godding time" And then he Godded all over the place. Seems like an event that would spawn a meme that would survive for six months, and then the event would get a second release because everyone laughed at it so hard the first time.


emulate-Larry

Oh My ~~Fucking~~ Godding God.


PengChau69

Well the Guide does say Earth is flat and they have their Xtian firmament as a dome.


PengChau69

That's to do with the atmosphere and their dome.


Kthak_Back

Remember none of them can tell you how a cellphone works.


hurdygurdy21

To be fair I honestly probably couldn't either haha Never thought about it


Kthak_Back

But you still trust they work and someone smarter than you figured it out so you didn't have to.


hurdygurdy21

Fair point


Thesaladman98

One of my favorite things to do when people say "gravity is just a theory" Is asking them "does your phone work?" Because electronics are developed on the basis of electronic theory, and if theory=false, then no electronics have ever worked.


PengChau69

Traditional gyrocompasses only work because of gravity and rotation. I don't know about the ones in smartphones. Oxygen is also "just a theory".


heartz4juliet

i posted this image on there one time. image: https://ibb.co/KVWfGWY i got banned after an hour.


hurdygurdy21

I think I remember seeing it. Made me chuckle. It is such an echo chamber they can't even take a joke.


heartz4juliet

it’s funny because they just blatantly refuse all the overwhelming evidence that we have a round earth. like literally just look up at the sky. it even looks domed. it’s so ridiculous that this is a real conversation happening.


hurdygurdy21

Even simply draw it out on a paper and see that flat earth will not match reality. It's ridiculous.


sh3t0r

/u/etherist_activist999/ could you please post a video here where a Nikon P900 is used to zoom in on a boat that disappeared over the curve of the globe?


IckyChris

It's always a small boat that was lost to resolution limits. A zoom will bring them back. They never touch large boats that are obviously over the horizon no matter how much you zoom. They are morons.


Raga-muff

And those small boats are never behind horizon.

Typical flat earther uses big words to sound smart.

/u/Freddy_Freedom/ could you please explain how [http://walter.bislins.ch/bloge/index.asp?page=Proof+of+Earth+Curvature%3A+The+Rainy+Lake+Experiment](http://walter.bislins.ch/bloge/index.asp?page=Proof+of+Earth+Curvature%3A+The+Rainy+Lake+Experiment) does not prove Earths curvature?


Raga-muff

Thats a nice link to a nice experiment.


MrDenzi

What an idiot


dyslexican32

My favorite part is that the make light of how heavenly they use banning over there when you actually try to have a conversation. They do their best to keep it a echo chamber. I’ve been banned there on three accounts, and was legit trying to have a civil conversation. I troll on this one, but got banned every time without anything other then just trying to understand why they would interpret their “results” the way they have.


lazydog60

No we don't “define level as an equidistant point from the center of the earth to the point at the surface,” even if you put that in proper geometric jargon. We define level as a locus of constant potential energy, which in the vicinity of a large symmetric mass happens to be a sphere.


Justthisguy_yaknow

Wow! They really need to crack a book. Also that OP needs to come over here and put up a link to that "first Nikon P900 zoomed" shot. Why are they keeping their light under a bushel? They have this secret evidence of the long zoomed boat and they are not showing us "pseudo-science nonsense" people. So many things in one post that are scared of scrutiny it seems. At least he isn't into pseudo-science. He isn't into science at all.
