Underwaterbob,

This made me briefly wonder if the flat earthers also think the sun revolves around the Earth, but then I remembered I don’t really care what they think. I wasted a not-insignificant portion of my late-20s and early-30s trying to reason with unreasonable people online. I’m done with that.

If anyone is curious where the real quacks hang out, check out evolutionfairytale.com. The forum is particularly juicy. If you are feeling particularly adventurous, try and join it and see how long it takes to get banned for “equivocating” (they love to accuse anyone advocating for real science of that one.)

Oh yes, the forum rules states in the first paragraph:

The primary goal of this forum is to provide a place for honest, educational, civil, and fun debate on the topic of origins.

The second paragraph contains a link to the “Evo Babbler Percher Alert” which is a page dedicated to accusing anyone advocating for evolution as being wrong no matter what they say.

Yeah sure, honest debate. You keep believing that.

JasonDJ,

Saw a commercial on TV for the Ark Museum and I was flabbergasted.

Underwaterbob,

Yeah. The staggering amount of waste indoctrinating young children to be scientifically illiterate and unemployable just because some idiots want to believe in their fairy tales. massive sigh

I don’t think flat earthers believe that earth is oriented like that.

And for that matter, I don’t think the majority of self proclaimed flat earthers actually believe earth is flat. I think they’re some kind of paid troll group or something.

soggy_kitty,

The proportion of flat earthers to people who talk about them is staggering. Post gets a downvote from me

Syd,

Sounds like something someone trying to spread round earth propaganda and discredit the true flat earth would say.

So… a sea turtle with some half-life head-crabs riding on it?

AngryCommieKender,

The opening credits of this will help you visualize it. It’s a Terry Pratchett’s Discworld reference.

Trainguyrom,

holy cow I never knew that existed. I gave the first 5 minutes a watch and its wild how they tried to turn snarky novels dripping with thinly veiled social commentary into a children’s television special

Edit: ended up watching the whole thing. I’m not sure who the target audience was, but I certainly enjoyed it, 90s budget animated film warts and all

MelodiousFunk,

Thank you for posting the truth. It really hurts the heart to see all this disinformation being thrown around.

A lunar eclipse! So it would be that instead of the red, dusky moon we get. I believe a solar eclipse would look the same on earth if it was flat and the sun/moon were overhead. Different pattern though.
