I been stupid enough lately to start watching / reading what these fucks are talking about and I'm actually doubtful! For the longest time I would see claims of a flat earth and would laugh and feel sorry/sad for those idiots. Watched one of those Lil faggy jewtoob vids and started askn questions.
Some shit makes sense, some shit makes no sense even when it comes to a round earth model. I'm not saying that I believe the earth is flat, it's just kinda fun to enable the idea.
So can anybody convince me either way.
>inb4 "because science, durrr cuz my science book says so"
Seems like it comes down to just going along with it since science says so, we just blindly follow what we are told. For most of us if not all in this thread, there is no way we could personally prove either way without resulting in just taking the word of someone taking the word of a theory.
To me, alot makes sense up to the point of motive. Whats the purpose of tricking the world that it's round? Just saying that outloud sorta opens my eyes to how stoopid of an idea that is.
Also, the original method for determining the size of the earth used the angle of a shadow at two points several miles apart, at the same time.
Also, boats/planes ship shit all over the world, and they go in both directions without falling off.
Also, you are retard and I can't believe I'm replying wtf
Robert Nelson
Can you prove wrong, either way?
Lucas Edwards
FUCK!!! I hate fucking flat Earthers.
Charles Clark
So those two distinct land masses at the north/south pole are somehow just one blob in this model.
Daniel Bell
OP you simply have no concept of what a credible source is.
I mean why listen to scientists who have spent their entire life studying a subject, have their names on peer review publications and stake their reputation on their research when you can listen to some online shit poster talk out of their ass.
You are truly a dumb fuck for believing everything you read online. You are for sure under the age of 25 and have not really been in the real world.

The Earth isn't flat. If you need evidence, look into the creation of monopole magnets (something that is generally confided an impossibility due to the Earths construction) and how gravity is generally believed to work (and observations on a smaller scale)

Looks like the flat earth map you stoopid fuck!
Where's your hard evidence that it's round? I have no idea how to personally prove it either way.
Why the fuck can't nasa show a real picture of earth from space? It's been admitted that all pics of Earth are cgi. Why can't they just show us a true picture?
Julian Thompson
Because they're hiding part of the earth from us. It's a lot bigger than what we've all been told
Jordan Diaz
There exists night and day. Gravity pulls everything toward its centers. We can observe other planets are round.
Noah Moore
there's a shit ton of evidence to show the earth is round, but the most important one i would say is photographs. the only hard "evidence" the flatfags have is to say those photos are fake. so if you wanna believe its a conspiracy go ahead, whatever. but the only other shit they have are lame ass hypotheses that require the laws of physics (the same laws that we follow to put satellites into orbit, fly planes, transmit information via EM waves, etc) have to be changed to suit their claims. i mean, if they really had the gumption to show their case is true, they could all pool their money together and take a boat ride out to that ring of ice that supposedly sits around the "egde" but id wager the fags would take photos of whats really there and the fags that didnt go would cry bullshit and say the expedition team fell victim to the conspiracy

Here's the deal: there are three types of Flat Earthers who regularly post to Sup Forums: assholes who troll for spite, asshole intellectuals who troll to test your knowledge and debate skills, and literal Bible interpreters (LBIs). They all have the freedom to make shit up (lie) because truth and understanding are not their goals, and they end the arguments with "prove me wrong." This nefariously places the onus on you to spend your precious life's time to provide information already available that they haven't and won't consider. By disavowing any science or proofs put forward and continuing to make shit up, they "win" by eroding your patience. It is simply impossible to keep up with having to explain away the barrage of violations on the most basic principles of geometry, math, science, and logic.
They aren't interested in critical thinking, refuse to put in the requisite effort to do the science, are blind to 3D visualization, and regularly refuse to respond when they can't fabricate anything that would pass even their own red-faced test. LBIs concentrate on believing what their leaders tell them while ironically calling you a "sheeple," and will not allow any sense to mar their fractured perception of the universe. They believe they are right, and they want you to become as stupid as they. The trolls will simply post sillier arguments and regularly resort to insults and taunts to keep you posting.
In any case, there is simply no arguing. Like trying to paint over mud, you just end up with a dirty brush.
In this thrtead, it seems we have simple trolls.
Joseph Moore
Shenanigans. Shit's flat bro
Christopher Hall
>this is a real thing >people here unironically believe this and start arguing it

In case you think this type of thread is new and clever...

That's what I'm saying. Supposedly there are no flights over Antarctica, or because of some treaty no one is allowed to even explore the south pole without a guided tour.
Hey fuck face I've read evidence from both sides. Not trolling I just wanted 4chans take on it, maybe better evidence or how many of you fags actually believe this. I didn't say I believe that it's flat
Isaiah Ramirez
Lots of CGI there homes.......
Trying to cover up the big lie where the other unseen part of Earth is loaded with gold and diamonds
Nicholas Bailey
People "blindly follow" it because it's been an established truth for so long that it's simply considered common knowledge, much like how it's known liquid water is wet and fire burns you. The fact of the matter is there has been overwhelming evidence spanning centuries that prove flat earth to be false. At no point in time has flat earth ever substantially been backed other than "you're all sheeple!" Or "muh bible says so!" Conversely there have been many factors that prove earth to be to some degree or another spherical. This includes gravity, calculating placing a shot in sniper school, distance calculation, and the movement and capabilities of the sun.
Sebastian Morris
Yup earth is as flat as your ass
Dylan Myers
you can use math and physics to show that the earth doesn't spin fast enough for a disk shape to have been formed or ever form
Charles Carter
B1, I1, N1, N2, G2 And worst of all, you ask for a picture, then say it's CGI. Gee, didn't see that coming. Troll.

ships have sailed and planes have flown around the world, if it was flat they would see the edge of the earth at some point.

I will try to find the link, but the man who produces every nasa pic of earth admitted that it's all cgi and had an explanation for why
Jack Bell

Jeremiah Rivera
>the man who produces every nasa pic of earth Right there should be your sign that someone's having some fun at your expense. Think about that.
Wyatt Thompson
I think you missed the cringe thread
Nathaniel Price
Are you aware that gravity is the exception to everything, and that there's many many exceptions to gravity? How are you happy with that fact?
Asher Cook
Uh huh......by that logic then everything on the Earth should be round. Buildings, people, animals, etc.
Last I checked I'm not round, my dogs aren't round, my house isn't round
Jack Harris

Nicholas Long

Thomas Torres
So the earth has curvature of approximately 8" per mile, do you have to dip the nose of the plane down every so often? I don't know shit about flying and this just came to me
Jonathan Sanders
they wouldnt even have to get out of the boat, just sailing around the world along the rim of ice and recording their position would be sufficient
Josiah Allen
This is a good observation. Why do planes have to go up to take off? Should't they just go straight on the runway and they will end up in the air? They don't......they pull up. Shit's flat
Hunter Long
i really think it could be, NASA gets 50 mil a dad to show us CGI. if the would is flat then i think it was back when they first went to Antarctica when they found out it was true. at that point they either had to re write the history books and and adjust pretty much everything we do in life to account for it OR just lie about it.
Robert Turner
This has been a flat earth argument for years. The plane does indeed adjust but it moves so subtly that you can't notice it.
Brayden Thompson
>spin doesn't make things into spheres. gravity does that.
To be fair, that statement is lacking some important additions. Gravity attracts objects that are free-floating, yes. And as there is a common center to the attraction, new material builds up a generally roundish shape. But the real round starts to form when the mass builds, causing internal pressure to overcome the structural integrity of the bulk material. It behaves more like a fluid, being crushed into smaller particles.
No imaged 'small' asteroids for instance are shown to be round. In fact, roundness is one of the current qualities that defines the difference between an asteroid and dwarf planet.
Mason Jenkins
I don't care what you're saying, if it starts with "alex jones said" you're a goddamned retard.
Christian Rodriguez
what exceptions are you fucking talking about? and yeah gravity is a deciding factor in many things because it affects all matter
Carson Sanchez
The implication of the plane continuing "straight" into space would be that the atmosphere continued on at a constant pressure. In the real world, the atmosphere gets thinner as you gain altitude. A plane in steady flight maintains an equilibrium between the angle of attack of the wing and thrust of the engines that keeps the plane within a level of atmosphere where its rarity is more or less the same, but uses occasional minor trim when local pressure and density varies slightly.
No, it's not a good observation. Many reasons: If airplanes didn't climb, they'd hit things at the ends of the runways, like trees, buildings, and mountains. If they all flew at eh same altitude, there'd be common near-hits and actual collisions. The atmosphere is thinner higher up, so the plane needs to get there to be fuel efficient. The Earth is so big that it *appears* flat from anywhere low enough to be breathable, so the pilot has to climb to meet all the above conditions.
Anthony Allen
they aren't going to listen. they all have their heads up NASA's ass.
Asher Reed
Yes it is flat, don't listen to these faggots whom say it isn't
Lucas Bennett
Oh, right - like you've produced any proof that can be addressed singly and/or wholly by a flat Earth. Instead, you rely on parroting really ignorant, stupid canned statements that are easily disproved, and hope that cynical and sarcastic remarks will have some quashing effect.
Nicholas Long
1. Tell everyone earth is flat. 2. ....? 3. Profit!
>what is point 2 ?
Brandon Murphy
>Uh huh......by that logic then everything on the Earth should be round. Buildings, people, animals, etc. >Last I checked I'm not round, my dogs aren't round, my house isn't round wow, ok... everything has gravity but gravity is a relatively weak force so it takes extraordinarily massive objects to have a gravitational field powerful enough to pull themselves into spheres. It takes things moon sized or bigger(heavier) to pull themselves into a ball shape. Anything smaller(lighter) and their own internal structure is strong enough to withstand it's own gravity. There's a bit more to it than that, but that's the basics of it.
Easton Mitchell

Jaxon Wilson
Science isnt following blindly and believing what u r told. Thats the beauty. You can see for yourself. You can do your own experiments and prove it to yourself. But people whose think earth is flat are too stupid to science
