Debate an expert, Neil
He "can't"
This linked video autorolled into this one, which is a perfect example of what Rogan is explaining around the 6:00 mark, how someone who speaks well with big words can sound like they're dropping a solid argument
But when there's an expert there to say "stop, hold up, here is why that's wrong"

Consider that when you see this linked video " 3 scientists school flat Earthers on the evidence | Neil deGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, Michelle Thaller "
They don't have someone like Eric Dubay on; it's just the three of them barking at the viewer with no expert present to debunk their lies
People who lie to the masses like this are treasonous cowards and deserve to be treated as such, imo
Eric Dubay is an low IQ uneducated fuck wit. His 'explanations' can easily be debunked as conjecture and baseless. He thinks the sun is tiny and not far away from the earth which must make you wonder how all the other planets are brightly illuminated. Fucking mental midgets.

What you’ve linked me is commonly accepted reasoning for estimating the suns size and distance from our surface
It’s sound reasoning
The other planets are brightly illuminated because they aren’t lit up by the sun
You just don’t have all of the information, and not like I do; it’s new to me, too
But I’m a lot further along than you are on this one, apparently
You do know that multiple unmanned explorers have taken photos of our sun + planets + earth in the same shot right?
Go ahead and show me then, shill
Hit us with a link to some pics!

I literally feel sorry for you if you're genuinely believing the link you just sent me
Truth is here, savman
Come around to flat earth now or be an NPC and snap out of it when everyone else does
See you soon, either way
I will as soon as you present me with evidence published by someone over grade 12 level education. Just one is all I need.
Gets me thinking, if there is one thing that could potentially warp our vision of something being round, it could be gravity itself. Where what if the Earth did look round because when we leave Earth's Orbit and view a stationary object in rotation our eyes are receiving the light in a circular rotation giving off the perception that the object outside are round but in fact they could be flat.
That is honestly the only perception I could consider to suggest that planets could be flat.
It’s just us, as far as I know
The planets, or whatever they actually are, are not the same as the ground we are standing on
I can’t verify that so I don’t bother talking about that when I’m posting FE stuff
I start with the formula for calculating curvature
Earthcurvature.com
Do you live near a large body of water? You COULD do it over land but I would then recommend you test in a few places to almost entirely rule out the possibility that all of your large parcels of land happened to coincidentally be perfectly flat, however unlikely that may be
Bring binoculars if you have them
On a clear day and assuming your vision is 20/20 you should be able to see at least 20/25 kms without any issue
Bring the binos to go further and really leave yourself little room for doubt
You want to do this over water because we know water finds and maintains its level
No one denies this obvious truth about water maintaining its level
What you want to do is scan across the water or up the coastline to the most distant landmark/building you can spot
Pay attention to what you’re seeing. Notice how you’re seeing not only 100% of the distant landmark but also even the ground/shoreline running up to it
Hit google maps on a pc and right click your starting point, measure distance from here, and then right click again at your distant landmark(s)
It will give you an accurate distance and then you go to earthcurvature.com to enter in the distance and calculate how much curve there should be
20kms is about 95ft of drop
25kms is about 150ft of drop
But you’re looking at 100% of the distant landmark
Why isn’t it blocked by the earth itself?
We have examples much further than this but I don’t like linking YouTube videos when it’s much better to go out and do for yourself so that your own eyes can show you the Truth
Mentioning that we have navy vessels than can target an enemy ship 100 miles away by pointing a laser at them
At 100 miles there should be like 6,600ft of drop
Lighthouses impossibly in view, etc
Try it out, sometime!
The final proof!
haha I wouldn't drop this video as some sort of smoking gun but it's just more to add to the pile
