Just curious if anyone has had any run-ins with these idiots? They seem to be spreading, you almost can't go on any space-based article on social media without running into these people. I realize that some of them are probably just trolling, but there does seem to be an alarming amount of people who truly believe that the earth is flat.
 
I don't think they are spreading , just easier for us normal people to stumble upon their message given the widespread use of social messaging.
 
Unfortunately I have. A few months ago I found out a light friend/aquaintance truly believes in that bs. I hadn't heard of it before at the time so when he mentioned it I burst out laughing. Only later did I find out he was serious.

Needless to say I haven't talked to him since. I knew he wasn't the brightest guy, but at a certain point all respect is lost.

Social media and YouTube certainly make it easier for them to get their message out. There are a lot of these idiots who will believe anything they see on YouTube instead of what science tells them. I've tried watching a few of those flat earth YouTube videos, I can never make it all the way through any of them. The amount of cognitive dissonance that goes on with these idiots is astounding.
 
These stupid mother fukcers are almost as stupid as the 9/11 truther mother fukcers. I'm looking at you Coke.

Speaking of which, where is Coke?
 
I'm always intrigued by these people. The explanations they come up with to support their theory show creativity. It's too bad they can't better apply it.

I always assumed there were two types of flat-earthers, trolls and really good trolls. You're telling me there are legitimate believers?
 
Are you saying I could go on a cruise and not worry about falling off the planet. Damn I've wasted so much time.

Mt. Vinson can be summited by anyone with the money to go. Maybe they should pool their money together and have someone go to find the truth.
 
As two (2) engineers proved with the Moon Hoax video shown on Fox nearly a couple of decades ago, you can show people 'science' in the media, it can be totally dead wrong, and 85% of people will believe it.
