Case in point: Not one person has been able to make a decent rebuttal to the flat earth truth I've posted here. All they can do is call me stupid while getting owned by the facts.
It's still a pacman universe, cocksuckers
Not everyone can handle the Ben Schapiro style facts and logic booby traps :)
I have heat-seeking missiles of sound reasoning and rhetorical flair for both round earth and gravity shills alike.
I've had enough of you flat earth shills, clearly it's a taco shaped world... this creates the illusion of both round and flat depending on which side you're looking at.
Same here. Same old fallacious nonsense every time. Personal attacks, strawmen, appeal to authority, incredulity fallacy, circular reasoning, it’s all on display.
Actually one huge reason I ended up a “flat-earther” is the obvious and ham-handed online hostility towards it that relies on censorship and snark. Like, if the earth were a ball and the moon landings were real, it would be nigh impossible to doubt either of those things because they would be easily demonstrable with modern technology and HD footage.
Same. Though I wouldn't commit to considering HD footage alone as evidence, considering how easy it would be to fake. Especially with the amount of resources big globe has at their disposal.
True, however the absence of HD panoramic videos of space walks, satellites, eclipses, Apollo landing sites, etc. speaks very loudly. If multiple camera angles were used simultaneously that would also be a lot more convincing. If the videos were authentic they would survive scrutiny a lot better than the nonsensical Space X and ISS footage.
I've been to the edge of the world.
Can confirm there's no ledge.
How do you reconcile such phenomenon of horizon line of sight. Earth being round, at a certain height above the oceans surface can only have a line of sight to a certain measurable distance. However if height of your line of sight increases, the horizon distance also increases.
You can take this a step further and actually calculate visible horizon distance based on the circumference of the earth and altitude. If you attempted to do this using a flat plane your calculations would result in inaccurate solutions.
Ah. The distance you can see is limited not by the curvature of the earth but by atmospheric conditions. Even on the clearest day air itself has a certain opacity. Even if the globe earth were real, this opacity would limit your vision before the globe earthers' curvature would. That's why you can't see all the way to the ice wall.
Was that your main objection to the truth of flat earth?
I don't have any objection. I just find it to be logically false based on personal experience and observation along with the application of simple geometry and math. It's a completely unemotional challenge to your stated claim.
For example, on a clear day. The human eye can see roughly 12 nautical miles. However, standing at sea level affords you only a few miles. Increasing your elevation can increase the distance of the horizon accurately to 12 miles by adjusting for the curvature of the earth. Additionally, you did not address the similar example I provided which uses high frequency RF which tends to not have it's line of trajectory impacted by atmospheric affects. This is equally calculable for the curvature of the globe, as I have done so multiple times when developing radar employment plans for use between military assets at sea.
Additionally, the same applies to high frequency rf beams which tends to be less susceptible to atmospheric effects which could potentially allow lower frequency waves to propagate beyond the horizon caught in thermal layers like ham radio does.
I used to browse 9gag when I was on the loo, and some groups where usually made fun of more than others; mostly flat-earthers and anti-vaxxers. A couple of years ago, I noticed that the jokes towards those groups ramped up big time. I think it was a bit before the 2016 US election campaign. I remember at the time, I thought that was weird; and that was before I joined The Great Awakening on reddit and took the red pill.
