AND SEE HOW IT’S FLAT?!?!?!????

I've met some genuine Flat Earthers - it's a disturbing experience to meet people who are that far gone. At first I thought that they were pulling my leg in jest, because it seemed to me nobody could be quite that stupid. Then, after talking to them, I realized that yes indeed, there are people that stupid in the world.

When I asked them about all of the photos taken of the Earth from space, they said that the photos were just CGI fakes. I pointed out that in 1969, there was no CGI, to no avail.

Then I pointed out that with a hobbyist's telescope you could see that the moon and various planets are spherical, and they said that the Earth is the exception - it's flat even if the other planets are spherical. When I tried to point out that the same spherically symmetric gravitational processes that caused space dust to accrete into the other planets formed the Earth in the same way, they said something like "the Earth is just different" again.

You can't fix brainwashing and a you can't fix stupid.

That’s fascinating. Of course it’s flat but I did not expect it to be shaped like a disc. I expected a square. ;)
