    I’ve seen Apple’s fly sideways here in Australia, but that was only when my brother threw them at my head.
    Great video for the flatties 👍

    I feel at this point Flat Earthers know the Earth is round but genuinely try to just be a "rebel" and argue for the sake of arguing

      Most of these people are at the level that they cannot accept they were wrong, they are "living in parents basement" kind of people and they find friends in these flat earth communities. If they accept earth is round, they will lose their friends.

    Who would have imagined that forty years after visiting the Franklin Institute as a child in the 1980s, we would require instructional movies on why the world is an oblate spheroid? Even while that goes hand in hand with climate denial, climate change won't destroy us before our fall from grace brought on by the spread of the stupid.🤦‍♂

      This exactly. When we go extinct it will be because of idiots pushing back against society’s progression forward.

    I wonder if in the space age they will look back at flatearthers and study them. Maybe there will even be a different vatriation of flatearthers believing the universe is a pretzel or something.

    Just look at the moon. It looks very different depending on where on earth you stand. Especially if you go from the north to the south. But i guess you would see the round planet when flying to your distinationen.

    If the earth is flat, how come in 2024 no one has gone to the edge of flat earth to take photos using their phone, a drone or something, just to prove us wrong? People know the earth isn’t flat. They just want to argue.

    You can't say anything to flat earthers. You likely couldn't even take them up in space. They are just that inept.

      Those who actively argue with stupid people, eventually become stupid by osmosis...

    It's sad that we've come to the point where someone has to explain common sense
