I’ve never dissassociated more than when I heard my sweet grandmother tell me that Hillary was part of an evil cabal of witches who drink the blood of tortured babies for adrenochrome.
reading this slightly baked and I got confused why plugging in an HDMI cable had to do with babies
I can move my eyes without moving my eyes
What I never understood about this theory was: where do you fall down to? And if the moon is a sphere, why not the earth?
The flat earth is constantly accelerating “upwards”, which is what creates the equivalent of sane people gravity. So it’s not really falling over the edge as the Earth leaving you behind.
the universe is expanding at an increasing rate, we’re just feeling the acceleration.
oh no maybe I shouldn’t give them any ideas
Interestingly, General Relativity shows that gravity is equivalent to the surface of the earth constantly accelerating upward, even on our lovely globe.
Yes, that’s their belief. Does that mean that there is no gravity beyond earth? Also how does the sun work then? Do they believe we are geocentric, not heliocentric?
There’s just so much that doesn’t add up.
The sun and moon are tiny and relatively close. They rotate in circles above the surface at a constant distance (don’t ask why). From what I know they spend a lot more time “disproving” existing theories than finding new ones to explain their model.
Moon at the exact opposite position of Sun? Man, what did minecraft do to us /j
The sun and moon are spherical flashlights? 🤣 Holy shit, that’s dumb.
Thing is, even though that’s the one thing that would work*, they don’t believe that.
* Except you’d start seeing relativistic effects in short order.
It’s definitely one of the theories I’ve seen. Checking on The Flat Earth Society website I see it’s not their official position (but they acknowledge some groups do believe that). They don’t have a different theory though, just that “objects simply fall”.
Ludicrous speed: GO!
Just the earth is flat, everything else is sphere. That’s why there’s only life on earth
What does life have to do with spheres?
Try putting a cup of coffee on a table: It doesn’t fall off. Now try putting a cup of coffee on a basketball.
That’s why life can’t survive on spheres.
lol the tail
And a forked tongue lmao
Mods, these two know too much!
The “HUP” is great
