So I was discussing general conspiracy theories with someone and the subject of flat Earth came up. I'm not very knowledgeable on this so I didn't do a great job explaining why someone would think the Earth is flat.
Can anyone give me the main reason why flat Earthers believe what they believe? I gather it's an elite/resources thing to restrict the plebs from some amazing hidden area that is off limits. Something to do with Antarctica?
What are the top 5 reasons people can justify this claim with that haven't already been debunked? I tried to have a look myself but there is a whole lot of crazy out there on this subject.
You are a fuck wit. 'Earth rise' was taken from the space capsule high above the moon while in orbit. The size of the moon (or of Earth from the Moon) on a photo is determined by one thing only — the focal length of the lens, or rather, the ratio of focal length compared to the film size. This ratio determines the field of view.
Go read some books, moron.
Really? And you do? FYI, it's not admirable to be suckered into thinking everything is fake just because you're too stupid to understand science. You literally are trusting some idiot on YouTube vs. a huge swath of very, very, smart people. Nothing you have said is even remotely believable or plausible. You saying " no capacity for critical thinking " is the essence of irony and being a fuck wit. As I said, learn some facts before you spew your nonsense.
Why? I'm not.
